This paper assesses São Tomé and Príncipe's monetary and exchange rate arrangements in light of the country's monetary history and the relevant experience of comparable countries in Africa. The study highlights several structural characteristics of São Tomé and Príncipe including its very small size, high degree of openness, extensive use of foreign currencies, and inflexible product and factor markets in the consideration of an appropriate monetary and exchange regime. Firmly anchored currency arrangements, defined in this paper to include memberships in monetary unions or hard pegs, are found to be preferable to the status quo of a managed float. The paper applies statistical methods and takes into account other factors to identify the appropriate anchor currency. It stresses that fiscal discipline and prudent debt management are the main prerequisites for a firmly anchored currency arrangement.

Histoire d'un étonnant théâtre africain à Sao Tomé, " l'île du milieu du monde ", sur l'Equateur ! Charlemagne, Ganelon, le marquis de Mantoue, l'Impératrice et ses dames de Cour dansent des pavanes et des menuets raffinés en pleine jungle. Dans ce livre, Françoise Gründ, éthnoscénologue, répond à de nombreuses questions : que signifie le nom tchiloli ? pourquoi les anciens esclaves, qui se font appeler " fils de la terre ", se sont-ils approprié une culture étrangère ? la dramaturgie sophistiquée ne dissimulerait-elle pas un code secret ? - n'a-t-elle pas servi de prétexte pour résister à l'enfer de l'oppression ? Un superbe fragment d'archéologie théâtrale, toujours vivant. La Maison des Cultures du Monde permet la connaissance de formes spectaculaires rares ; ainsi le tchiloli, invité a plusieurs reprises par le Festival de l'Imaginaire, suscite désormais une curiosité justifiée auprès d'un large public.

This paper discusses the Democratic Republic of São Tomé and Príncipe’s First Review under the Extended Credit Facility Arrangement. The economy remains vulnerable to external and domestic shocks. Growth decelerated to 4 percent in 2012, reflecting persistent global uncertainties, particularly in Europe, which contributed to a slowdown in foreign direct investment, and in the execution of the foreign-financed public investment program. Commercial banks profitability and capital-to-risk weighted assets ratio declined in 2012, reflecting more challenging lending conditions. The central bank continues to strengthen its banking supervision function through on-site inspections and enforcement of banking regulation.
