Cameroon<br />
To help fund COVID19 recovery, Cameroon is participating in the G20’s <strong>Debt</strong> Suspension Initiative (DSSI), which<br />
would allow the country to receive debt service suspension by its official bilateral creditors – including China –<br />
totalling $337 million by the end of 2020. In May 2020, the Cameroon government also took a $226 million worth<br />
53<br />
loan from the IMF under the interest-free Rapid Credit Facility (RCF) to mitigate the effects of COVID-19. The RCF<br />

involves budget support intended to cover about a third of Cameroon’s pandemic-induced financing needs.
