Cameroon President Paul Biya secured another term, extending his 40 years in office. However, investors are focused on the economy after the expiry of a $690 million IMF program. The government plans to raise $1.6 billion to cover budget gaps as its $750 million Eurobond matures next month. Analysts warn that high debt risks, volatile export prices, and Biya’s advanced age are clouding investor confidence.
