Republic of Equatorial Guinea: Third Review under the Staff-Monitored Program-Press Release; and Staff Report

International Monetary Fund

No 2026/028, IMF Staff Country Reports from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: The return to a secular decline in hydrocarbon production after a brief respite during the 2022 energy boom is again straining fiscal and external accounts. Boosting non-hydrocarbon growth is key to delivering a diversified, inclusive and balanced economy. Fund Management approved a 12-month extension of the Staff Monitored Program (SMP) in June 2024 to establish the reform track record required for a potential IMF financing arrangement.
