Economy
-------
Economic overview: In 1994 Senegal embarked on its most concerted
structural adjustment effort yet to exploit the 50% devaluation of
the currencies of the 14 Francophone African nations on 12 January
of that year. After years of foot-dragging, the government has
passed a liberalized labor code which should lower the cost of labor
and improve the manufacturing sector's competitiveness. Inroads also
have been made in closing tax loopholes, eliminating monopoly power
in several sectors, and privatizing state owned firms. At the same
time, the government is holding the line on current fiscal
expenditure under the watchful eyes of international organizations
on which it depends for substantial support. The IMF, in mid-1995,
announced that the government met most economic targets as called
for in its Enhanced Structural Adjustment Facility agreement and
released the second $50 million tranche. The country's narrow
resource base, environmental degradation, and untamed population
growth will continue to hold back improvement in living standards
over the medium term.

Economy
-------
Economic overview: The swift collapse of the Yugoslav federation
in 1991 has been followed by highly destructive warfare, the
destabilization of republic boundaries, and the breakup of important
interrepublic trade flows. Serbia and Montenegro faces major
economic problems; output has dropped sharply, particularly in 1993.
Like the other former Yugoslav republics, it depended on its sister
republics for large amounts of energy supplies and manufactures.
Wide differences in climate, mineral resources, and levels of
technology among the republics accentuated this interdependence, as
did the communist practice of concentrating much industrial output
in a small number of giant plants. The breakup of many of the trade
links, the sharp drop in output as industrial plants lost suppliers
and markets, and the destruction of physical assets in the fighting
all have contributed to the economic difficulties of the republics.
One singular factor in the economic situation of Serbia and
Montenegro is the continuation in office of a communist government
that is primarily interested in political and military mastery, not
economic reform. Hyperinflation ended with the establishment of a
new currency unit in June 1993; prices were relatively stable in
1994. Reliable statistics are hard to come by; the GDP estimate of
$2,000 per capita is extremely rough. The economy is recovering
extremely slowly following the suspension of UN sanctions in
December 1995.
