As perspetivas a médio prazo de Cabo Verde são positivas, apoiadas pelo pacote de políticas adotado pelas autoridades para dar resposta à evolução dos impactos da guerra na Ucrânia e aos seus compromissos para com o processo de recuperação e a ECF num contexto difícil. A economia recuperou fortemente em 2022, com um crescimento do PIB de 17,7%, embora a inflação média tenha aumentado para 7,9% no final de dezembro de 2022, impulsionada pelo aumento dos custos dos produtos alimentares, da eletricidade, do gás e dos transportes. O novo Plano Estratégico para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável 2022-2026 (PEDS II) define a agenda de reformas com vista a superar os desafios que se colocam ao desenvolvimento sustentável. A economia continua vulnerável a riscos internos e externos. Neste contexto, a ECF apoiará os planos das autoridades no sentido do progresso económico e social, bem como os desafios ambientais que o país enfrenta no seu processo de desenvolvimento, procurando simultaneamente reduzir os níveis da dívida e mitigar os riscos.

The IMF Board approved a 36-month ECF arrangement for Cabo Verde in June 2022. The program aims to: strengthen public finances and put debt on a downward path; reduce fiscal risks from public enterprises and improve their financial management; modernize the monetary policy framework and improve resilience of the financial system; and raise the growth potential. Cabo Verde was hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. The recovery is now underway, and the economy has recorded five consecutive quarters of growth, supported by a rebound in tourism. The fiscal position has improved, the debt-to- GDP ratio is on a downward path, reserves are within the target range, and the financial sector remains resilient. However, spillovers from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have led to double-digit increases in energy and food prices.
