| Summary: | The overall objective of the US$25
million credit, which closed in June 2000, was to support a
reform program aiming at: a) enhancing the competitiveness
of the Burkinabe economy to substantially raise growth rates
over the medium term and alleviate poverty; b) improving
public finance management, particularly with regard to tax
policy and the use of public resources; and c) completing
the third phase of the common external tariff (CET) adopted
by the west African Economic and Monetary Union (WAMEU).
