The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has approved the release of approximately $41 million to Niger, offering a financial boost to Niamey’s ongoing economic and climate-related reforms.

This disbursement follows the successful completion of two reviews under the country’s budget and climate aid programs. It signals international confidence in Niger’s current fiscal management, despite broader regional instability.

IMF officials commended Niger’s efforts to stabilize its economy while investing in resilience and sustainability projects, which remain key priorities under the current administration.

The funding is expected to support policy reforms, strengthen public finance systems, and help the country tackle pressing environmental and developmental challenges.
