These funds will be disbursed under the country’s Governance and Economic Recovery Support Programme (GERSP II).

German development bank Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW) is processing a complementary budget support loan to the tune of 50 million euros (N$877 million).

The approval follows an earlier loan tranche of N$1,5 billion, which the board approved for the programme’s first phase in March 2021.

The International Monetary Fund contributed N$4,1 billion in co-financing for phase 1 through the Rapid Financing Instrument.

The programme’s primary beneficiaries are government ministries, departments, and agencies of which the reforms are being supported by the operation.
