Democratic Republic of Congo, the world’s second-biggest copper producer, completed an International Monetary Fund loan program for the first time in its history, the Washington DC-based lender announced Wednesday.
Congo’s performance under the 3-year, $1.5 billion program was “generally positive,” allowing for a final disbursement of $224.7 million to support the country’s foreign reserves, the IMF said.
