Haiti economic and development program reviews
Overview
Haiti is undergoing various economic and development reviews involving international partners. In mid-September 2026, the Haitian government and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) initiated the fourth review of a Stand-By Arrangement established in 2024. Officials reported positive macroeconomic trends, including a decrease in inflation from 32.2% to 17.5% by July 2026, alongside reforms in public finance and petroleum pricing. However, the government noted that security, electoral organization, and social protection remain critical challenges.
By late September 2026, the Ministry of Planning and External Cooperation (MPCE) concluded a review of its externally funded project portfolio for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. The review, which included discussions with partners such as the United Nations, Mexico, and Cuba, identified 112 active projects valued at 364.75 billion gourdes. While the current disbursement rate is 38.74%, officials emphasized the need to accelerate the release of remaining funds to improve infrastructure, health, and water access, while asserting Haiti’s role as a primary actor in defining international projects.
