Summary

This paper presents United Republic of Tanzania’s Third Review under the Extended Credit Facility Arrangement, Request for Extension of the Extended Credit Facility (ECF) Arrangement and Rephasing of Access, and Request for an Arrangement under the Resilience and Sustainability Facility. The ongoing growth-friendly fiscal consolidation will help buttress fiscal and debt sustainability. Efforts should be geared toward enhancing domestic revenue mobilization and strengthening cash management and commitment controls. Strengthening public financial and investment management will help contain fiscal risks and improve the efficiency of public investment. Performance under Tanzania’s economic reform program supported by the ECF remained strong. The authorities are committed to continue implementing reforms to preserve macro-financial stability, strengthen the economic recovery, and promote sustainable and inclusive growth. Structural reforms are essential to promote inclusive, resilient, and sustainable growth. Business reforms should focus on streamlining bureaucratic procedures, simplifying the regulatory regime, and enhancing regulatory transparency. Implementation and enforcement of the authorities’ anti-corruption legislation and strategies is central to enhancing governance.
