Cameroon: Statistical Appendix

In recent years, the IMF has released a growing number of reports and other documents covering economic and financial developments and trends in member countries. Each report, prepared by a staff team after discussions with government officials, is published at the option of the member country.

Abstract

Cameroon: Basic Data ^1/

Sources: Cameroonian authorities; World Bank, World Development Indicators, 2004; and staff estimates.

^{^1/}Through 2001/2002, reporting is based on fiscal year July-June.

^{^2/}Revised national account series based on SNA 93 produced by Cameroonian authorities in early 2005 but not yet used by Fund staff due in part to unresolved concerns on oil sector GDP and on the GDP components not always adding up to their aggregates.

^{^3/}GDP used in the Article IV Staff Report.
