Mali
On the basis of the authorities’ record and actions, IMF staff supports the authorities’ request for waivers of two structural performance criteria and one quantitative performance criterion and completion of the sixth review. The authorities completed most of their ambitious structural reform agenda for the sixth poverty reduction growth facility (PRGF) review, albeit with some delays. To enhance the efficiency and soundness of the financial sector and boost growth, the authorities completed a new financial sector development strategy in October, in cooperation with the IMF and the World Bank.
Mali
This paper discusses Mali’s First and Second Reviews Under the Extended Credit Facility Arrangement, Request for Waiver of Performance Criteria (PC), and Request for Modification of PC. Economic recovery is under way but remains fragile. The buildup of the large-scale donor support has been hampered by serious lapses in public financial management (PFM), which raised governance concerns. With remedial measures now in place to address the PFM weaknesses, the program remains on track. The authorities are requesting waivers for PC on: tax revenue and nonconcessional borrowing. The IMF staff recommends conclusion of the first and second program reviews.
Mali
This note studies Mali’s performance in poverty reduction by analyzing household data from surveys in 2001, 2006 and 2009–10. Mali’s share of poor households has decreased substantially during the past decade. While the reduction in headcount poverty was more pronounced from 2001–06 when all sectors of Mali’s economy grew at a similar pace, economic growth was mainly beneficial to the very poor during 2006–10 when agricultural production boomed.

Mali's Conflict, the Sahel's Crisis
World Politics Review special reports are detailed compilations of recent WPR articles on a special theme. This report focuses on the conflict in Mali and the broader Sahel region. Summary: With a loose coalition of Tuareg nationalists, Islamic militias and transnational criminal networks in control of Mali’s northern region, the country has been effectively split in half. As the international community grapples with how to respond to the ongoing crisis, the spillover is increasingly threatening regional stability. This WPR special report reviews the conflict in Mali and the crisis in the Sahel.

National Ownership and Security Sector Reform in Mali
Karoline Eickhoff provides an in-depth analysis of the role that national ownership as a key policy principle of international development and peacebuilding plays in shaping the discourses and practices of external interventions in the context of the peace process in Mali. Engaging critically with the day-to-day work experience and perceptions of practitioners working on supporting the reform of the Malian security sector in 2015-2016,the author explores how external actors ‘make sense’ of an abstract policy model vis-à-vis other organisational demands and constraints arising at the field level. This book concludes with policy recommendations on how the gap between ownership policy and external actors’ field-level practices can be addressed.
