Public Financial Management in Senegal

In 2024, the government of Senegal identified that there had been misreporting to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) under the previous government. The sovereign debt for 2023 was calculated to stand at 111% of GDP, leading to a pause in the IMF programme.

In response to a demand from the Government of Senegal, the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office is providing a package of peer to peer and technical assistance to assist the design and implementation of public financial management reforms.

TPP Director Laure-Hélène Piron is serving as a political economy adviser to this process, building on her previous experience of Senegal.

This project is funded by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office and delivered through the Public Finance Resource Centre, which is managed by ASI.
