This revised budget aims to address the country's significant debt burden, which the IMF estimates had reached 132 per cent of Senegal's gross domestic product by the end of 2024. A successful deal with the IMF could provide Senegal with much-needed financial assistance, helping to stabilize the economy and alleviate some of the pressure from its debt.
