Description
Summary:This paper examines Cote d'Ivoire's debt sustainability analysis undertaken in connection with the Enhanced Initiative for Heavily Indebted Poor Countries. The crisis years led to a substantial increase in poverty and deterioration in living standards. The March 2007 Ouagadougou Political Accord provides a roadmap for reunification, national reconciliation, demobilization, and elections.

To eliminate extrabudgetary spending in the future and enhance transparency, the authorities have established a range of safeguards.
