This ECF programme was approved in May 2022, and provides total financing of US$456 million (\u20ac416.2 million) to Mozambique.<\/p>\n<p>The most recent data shows that the Mozambican state\u2019s operating expenses increased by 9.4% in the first nine months of 2023, to 237,414 million meticais (\u20ac3,392 million), driven by increases in salaries.<\/p>\n<p>According to the economic and social balance of the execution of the State Budget from January to September, from the Ministry of Economy and Finance of Mozambique, this performance corresponds to 78.9% of all state operating expenses planned for this year, evaluated at almost 316,919 million meticais (\u20ac4,520 million).<\/p>\n<p>The largest item is personnel expenses, which grew 16.1% until the end of September, compared to the same period in 2022, to almost 146,365 million meticais (\u20ac2,091 million), representing 78.9% of the total budgeted for the 12 months.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, salaries and wages represented an increase in public expenditure of 17.9% in nine months compared to the same period in 2022, to 141,641 million meticais (\u20ac2,024 million), equivalent to 80.4% of the budget for the entire year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
