Mali’s government approved a draft decree on Friday, 6 November 2026, providing for CFAF125 billion in additional spending authority under the amended 2026 state budget. The proposed allocation is intended to cover funding needs for hospital construction, other priority projects and new personnel-related measures.
The government is using the advance-decree procedure set out in Article 22 of the organic public finance law of 15 August 2025. In an emergency involving an overriding national interest, that provision allows additional budget credits to be opened. It also requires Parliament to be informed immediately and a finance bill ratifying the credits to be submitted at the opening of its next session.
Separately, Mali’s Treasury has scheduled a CFAF45 billion auction on the WAEMU public securities market for 11 November. According to UMOA-Titres, the offer includes a twelve-month Treasury bill and three- and five-year Treasury bonds with annual coupons of 6% and 6.20% respectively. Settlement is scheduled for 12 November.
