Summary:

This paper evaluates Cameroon’s 2002 Article IV Consultation, Third Review Under the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility (PRGF), and a Request for a Waiver of Performance Criterion. During the first half of the second annual program (October 2001–March 2002), economic activity expanded at a somewhat slower pace than projected, but continued to be strong. Although all the structural benchmarks were observed, the end-March 2002 performance criterion was missed. Good progress continued in implementing policies to strengthen non-oil revenue mobilization, and steps were taken to improve governance.
