The meeting was an occasion for an open and cordial discussion on progress under the strategy adopted by the BEAC and the Banking Commission (COBAC) to support the adjustment efforts undertaken by CEMAC member states in response to the sharp decline in oil prices in 2014. This effort is currently underpinned by IMF-supported programs in four of the six CEMAC countries.
"Governor Tolli and I discussed the strong measures adopted by the BEAC to support external stability —tighter monetary policy, the elimination of direct monetary financing of budgets, and ambitious reforms to strengthen and modernize the BEAC's governance and operations — and on the need for continued supportive policies by BEAC. We also touched upon important reforms undertaken by COBAC to strengthen the stability of the financial sector. All of these efforts contributed to stopping the decline in BEAC's official reserves in 2017.
