Cameroon plans CFA8.8 trn budget for 2026, with CFA3.1 trn to be borrowed
(Business in Cameroon) – The government has submitted its 2026 finance bill to the National Assembly. The draft sets revenue and spending at CFA8,816.4 billion, an increase of a little over CFA1,000 billion from 2025 (+14%).
The general budget totals CFA8,683.9 billion, up CFA1,014.9 billion (+13%). Special Appropriation Accounts (CAS) are projected at CFA132.5 billion, almost double the previous year’s level. The sharp rise is driven by a new Special Fund for Women’s Economic Empowerment and Youth Employment, financed with CFA50 billion, in line with commitments made by the Head of State.
The draft points to a deficit of CFA631 billion. When other financing charges are included, total needs reach CFA3,104.2 billion. With internal revenue expected to reach CFA5,887 billion, the government plans to raise the remaining amount through various forms of borrowing.

Cameroon’s 2026 budget deficit set to double on higher spending needs
Cameroon expects its 2026 budget deficit to more than double due to a sharp rise in spending aimed at supporting economic activity amid continued global instability, according to a draft finance bill presented to Parliament late on Wednesday.
Cameroon is highly exposed to external shocks, including price volatility, due to its heavy reliance on imports of fuel, wheat and automobiles.
The overall deficit is projected to be 631 billion CFA francs ($1.11 billion), up from 309.9 billion CFA francs ($545 million) in 2025, raising the government’s total financing needs to 3 104.2 billion CFA francs ($5.46 billion) in 2026, compared with 2 326.5 billion CFA francs ($4.09 billion) this year.
The government has proposed a 2026 state budget of 8,816.4 billion CFA francs ($15.50 billion), up 14% from 2025, driven by higher personnel costs, goods and services, transfers and debt payments.
