Summary:This paper discusses Somalia’s Second and Final Review Under the Staff-Monitored Program (SMP) and Request for a new SMP. Program implementation through end-December 2016 and end-March 2017 was broadly satisfactory. In view of this performance and the remedial measures by the authorities to address shortcomings in performance under the first SMP, the IMF management agreed to the completion of the second and final review of the program.
