Abstract

Growth has been resilient to the shocks of recent years, but Togo is facing elevated food insecurity and terrorist attacks while development needs remain acute. Fiscal deficits and debt have increased, reversing the debt reduction achieved during the 2017–20 ECF-arrangement, eroding fiscal space and buffers to absorb shocks, and contributing to regional vulnerabilities in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU). Two undercapitalized banks, one state-owned and the other recently privatized, pose risks to financial sector stability and associated fiscal risks. The authorities are requesting financial support of 200 percent of quota (SDR 293.60 million) under a 42-month ECF-arrangement.
