But this time, we are in Angola for a different assessment that is more focused on the risks of the Angolan economy\u201d, said the IMF official.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the Mission, which ends on the 12th of May, a report will be produced that will be available to all, similar to others already produced by the IMF.<\/p>\n<p>Separate technical meetings with various ministerial departments are scheduled within the framework of this Mission.<\/p>\n<p>The International Monetary Fund disbursed US$4.5 billion to Angola under the Extended Financing Programme.<\/p>\n<p>Within the framework of this financial availability, the IMF is now carrying out a continuous assessment of the Angolan economy, as occurs in other member countries, as well as the associated risks that could have a relevant impact, according to the resident representative of this Bretton Woods organization in Angola, Mark Souto .<\/p>\n<p>According to the official, the IMF assessment regarding the success of the reforms in Angola is a positive assessment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe realize that there is an impact on people&#8217;s lives which, although it can be felt in its fullness on a day-to-day basis, but these benefits will come\u201d, believes Marcos Souto, underlining that Angola has achieved macroeconomic stability.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
