International Monetary Fund

No 2022/032, IMF Staff Country Reports from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: Comoros is a small, fragile island state (population: 850,000) with persistently low and shock-prone growth and a high risk of external debt distress. Officially recorded COVID-related casualties have remained low (4,569 infections and 151 deaths so far). Growth projections remain at 1.6 percent in 2021 and 3.8 percent in 2022, supported in part by progress in vaccinations.

Keywords: Comoros' Staff Monitored program; IMF team; SMP review; Comorian authorities; IMF's transparency policy; management of the International Monetary Fund; SMP objective; Arrears; Fiscal stance; Current spending; Sub-Saharan Africa (search for similar items in EconPapers)
