Summary:

Tanzania’s economy experienced adverse supply shocks in 2011. The Fourth Review under the policy support instrument (PSI) discusses that tighter fiscal and monetary policies are addressing the inflationary impact of the drought/energy shock. Performance under the PSI-supported program has been generally satisfactory. All December 2011 and March 2012 quantitative assessment criteria and indicative targets were met, other than the March 2012 floor on net international reserves, which was missed on account of delays in contracting programmed external borrowing.
