In that context, Cameroon's ECF-supported program aims to restore the country's fiscal and external sustainability and unlock job-rich, private sector-driven growth. The program rests on three main pillars: i) frontloaded fiscal consolidation to strengthen fiscal and external buffers, while protecting social spending and social safety nets; ii) structural fiscal reforms to expand the non-oil revenue base, improve the efficiency of public investment and the quality of budgetary system, and mitigate fiscal risks from contingent liabilities; iii) reforms to accelerate private sector-led economic diversification and boost the resilience of the financial sector UR - http://elibrary.imf.org/view/IMF002/24410-9781484307328/24410-9781484307328/24410-9781484307328.xml UR - http://www.imfbookstore.org/IMFORG/9781484307328 ER -
