Chad: 2024 Article IV Consultation-Press Release; Staff Report; and Statement by the Executive Director for Chad

Chad is a fragile state facing daunting development challenges. One of the least developed countries in the world, it has been affected by severe shocks, including floods, the continuous arrival of refugees from Sudan, security threats, and food insecurity. With the end of the political transition period, the authorities committed to tackle these challenges, including through broadening access to public services, strengthening governance, and improving the business environment. The preparation of their national development plan (PND) will be an opportunity to articulate the macroeconomic policies and reforms that they intend to implement over the medium term to reach these objectives.
