Abstract: If you are not a financier, policy-maker or expert at the IMF, it is very difficult to objectively appreciate the weight of a loan for a developing country and the consequences of the resulting indebtedness, as the available information is most often disparate, fragmentary or even contradictory. I have used the renegotiation of a loan extended by China to Djibouti in an attempt to provide a tangible illustration of the financial and budgetary implications of a debt and its rescheduling. It is this simulation I describe in this note.
