This Selected Issues paper and Statistical Appendix presents an overview of economic developments in Cameroon in 1994/95 and 1995/96. After nearly a decade of economic decline, real GDP grew by more than 3 percent in 1994/95 (July/June) and by an estimated 5 percent in 1995/96. Inflation, on an end-of-period basis, decelerated to 13 percent in 1994/95 and to 4 percent in 1995/96. Fiscal performance strengthened considerably, with government revenue rising by about 4 percentage points of GDP between 1993/94 and 1995/96, and total expenditure declining by 6 percentage points, to 17 percent of GDP in 1995/96.

Despite its vast oil wealth, central Africa still struggles to sustain strong, inclusive economic growth and to generate sufficient employment opportunities, particularly for its fast-growing youth population. Drawing on new research, Oil Wealth in Central Africa lays out the macroeconomic and growth challenges facing the region; examines oil wealth management and its implications for poverty reduction; and includes four case studies that exemplify lessons learned.
