The oil price decline has resulted in a massive reduction in Iraq's budget revenue, pushing the fiscal deficit to an unsustainable level. The authorities are responding to the crisis with a mix of necessary fiscal adjustment and financing, maintaining their commitment to the exchange rate peg.

Their performance under the SMP has been broadly satisfactory.
