flag Gabon awaits IMF review amid rising market confidence and debt concerns.

flag Gabon has not yet formally requested an IMF financing program ahead of a 10-day IMF mission starting February 25, 2026, though officials have expressed interest and technical talks are underway. flag Market confidence has risen, with Gabon’s 2031 dollar bonds jumping from 76.75 to 86 cents on the dollar since January 20. flag The IMF mission will evaluate economic developments and discuss reforms. flag While an agreement could improve Gabon’s credit profile and secure foreign financing, concerns persist over debt sustainability after Fitch downgraded its rating to “CCC-” in December due to weak fiscal policy and limited market access.
