Abstract

The mitigated success of the strategies of poverty reduction has shown the importance of improved budget management through a better linkage to such strategies. The programming of public expenditure could not get rid of development priorities nor macroeconomic challenges. With the emergence of the Results-Based Management paradigm (RBM) in the 1990s, several African countries started adopting a Medium-Term Expenditure Frameworks (MTEF) as multi-year budgetary programming tools to move from resource-based budgets to budget outcomes and thus improve their public expenditure management. Within the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU), the new guideline on finance laws (adopted in June 2009) provides for an additional stage in this process by giving these tools a true legal existence and by placing them at the core of the budget procedure.
