1977年，斯里兰卡政府实施了全面的经济自由化政策，取消了许多政府对经济的控制，并为外国和国内投资提供了激励措施。以前的政策往往被证明是必要的，以保持公平的收入分配。1969-1970年和1980-1981年调查所得的收入数据表明，不平等现象有所加剧，但这些数据对于就收入分配的变化得出结论来说并不可靠。同一调查的支出数据表明，在1970年代，无论是在整个经济中，还是在所有部门和族裔群体中，不平等现象都有所减少。
In 1977 the Sri Lankan government implemented a comprehensive policy of economic liberalization, removing many government controls on the economy and providing incentives for both foreign and domestic investment. The previous policies were often justified as necessary to maintain an equitable distribution of income. Income data from 1969–1970 and 1980–1981 surveys indicate that inequality has increased, but these data are shown to be unreliable for drawing conclusions on changes in the distribution of income. Expenditure data from the same surveys indicate that inequality has declined in the 1970's, both in the economy as a whole and within all sectors and ethnic groups.
