PLFR - 2026 et Budget 2027 : Le FMI se prononce sur les rejets de l'Assemblée nationale et fait une mise au point
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) had indeed indicated a few days ago that it was closely monitoring the discussions in the National Assembly of Senegal. Since then, the 2026 Amending Finance Bill (PLFR) has been rejected in plenary session, while the 2027 Initial Finance Bill (PLFI) failed to obtain the approval of the Finance and Budget Control Committee. This Thursday, IMF spokesperson Julie Kozack addressed this series of obstacles.
“I would like to say that we are following the discussions in the National Assembly very closely regarding the amending finance law (LFR) 2026 and the initial finance law 2027. Senegalese institutions are sovereign in their budgetary decisions. We fully respect this prerogative,” she told the press.
Julie Kozack was keen to clarify that the IMF is not involved in the discussions between the government and the National Assembly. The financial institution is limiting itself to its role, which includes providing the Senegalese authorities with independent economic analyses, policy advice, and capacity-building support, she said.
“We are also assisting them in developing their own economic reform and policy programs, which will support their funding requests to the IMF,” the spokesperson explained. She clarified, however, that the choices regarding economic policies, particularly the specific guidelines for Senegal, are the responsibility of the country's authorities.
"What matters to us..."
The head of the Fund nevertheless emphasized what is important to the institution in the context of the ongoing negotiations. "What matters to us is that the authorities are determined to implement the policies they have agreed upon in the Staff-Level Agreement, which is to serve as the basis for the program, and that they are able to apply them within the legal and institutional framework specific to Senegal," she stated.
Julie Kozack also stressed the need for a budgetary framework that is consistent with the commitments made to the Fund: "What really matters is the commitment to respect the policies provided for in the program, the existence of a budgetary framework consistent with the policies and commitments agreed upon, as well as the ability to implement them in compliance with the legal and constitutional framework specific to Senegal," she added.
Julie Kozack also reaffirmed the IMF's willingness to explain the program to the various Senegalese stakeholders who wish to obtain clarification. "We are always ready to do so and we are continuing our in-depth discussions with the authorities on these policies," she assured.

On sait que ces instituts de Bretton Woods n'accepterons jamais un plan Marshall pour l'Afrique même la division du travail capitaliste est bloquée pas de délocalisation rien.
le gouvernement n a pas de majorité, comme dans toutes les démocraties c est lui qui doit essayer de convaincre pour se faire voter le budget. que cachent- ils pour refuser mordicus de fournir les justificatifs qu on leur demande et qui sont disponibles?
En effet, les sénégalais ont vu déferler dans les "merdias" des menteurs et manipulateurs essayant de nous faire croire que le FMI menacerait de ne plus accorder de prêt au Sénégal si l'Assemblée Nationale continue de rejeter la LFR 2026 et la LFI 2027. Alors cette déclaration de la porte-parole du FMI vient donc mettre fin à tous ces mensonges et manipulations et c'est tant mieux !
