00:50contributions to the title of the AMO regime,

03:22Direction of the Central African Republic,
03:25the International Monetary Fund
03:27has revised its forecast for the country's growth
03:30to 1% for the current year,
03:32against 1.3%
03:34envisaged at the end of its last mission in April.
03:37Despite progress in peacekeeping,
03:40the prospects of economic recovery
03:42in the Central African Republic
03:44remain subject to many challenges,
03:46indicated by the IMF
03:48in a statement published following its last mission
03:51in Central Africa,
03:52carried out in early October
03:54in the context of its facilitated expansion of loans.
03:57Despite the country's increase in internal revenues,
04:00which amounted to around $130 million,
04:03at the end of June 2024,
04:05an increase in the primary public deficit
04:07was observed during the same period.
04:09However, a significant short-term improvement
04:12in internal revenues
04:14will only be possible with a higher contribution
04:17from the oil tax.
04:19Current performance is estimated
04:21at around 9% of total internal revenues in 2024,
04:25results well below their historical level,
04:29i.e. between 20 and 25%.
