Summary

Recent performance suggests further economic stabilization in the Central African Republic, but uncertainties remain related to the general elections. The fiscal program aims at supporting domestic demand, financing the peace process and the elections, and mobilizing more revenue. Structural reform measures are targeted to support the macrofiscal framework through revenue administration reform, better public financial management, and strengthened policy implementation capacity. Payment of government utility bills will help. Executive Directors encourage the authorities to secure bilateral agreements with all external creditors.
