Public debt, growth and stabilization in Tunisia: A new narrative for a structural reform agenda

This paper assesses debt sustainability in Tunisia using the Debt Sustainability Analysis (DSA). We construct three hypothetical scenarios (A, B and C) over the period 2023-2027. The first two scenarios are called Business as usual approaches. In Scenario A, we assume that Tunisia will continue the same path as in the past three years, without an IMF agreement. In scenario B, Tunisia reaches an agreement with the IMF. However, the lack of considerable progress on the reform agenda causes the ending of the IMF agreement. The last one (Scenario C) is a proactive reform scenario.

Quel modèle d’allocation des dépenses pour le Fonds de Riposte et de Solidarité (FRS) contre le Covid-19?

Le Fonds de Riposte et de Solidarité (FRS) contre les effets du Covid-19 mis en place par le Président Macky Sall a l’objectif déclaré d’endiguer l’épidémie du Corona Virus, et ensuite enrayer ses effets au Sénégal.
