(Business in Cameroon) - According Alamine Ousmane Mey, Cameroonian Minister of Finance, the economic activity should increase in volume in 2017, due in part to the provisions made by the government in the 2017 Finance bill, which has been adopted by Parliament.

Indeed, he highlighted in an interview granted to the pro-government daily, “the measures set in the Finance bill adopted in Parliament will further boost the economic activity. These are measures which goals are to truly increase revenues, lead to the creation of new activities through promoting investment and, in parallel, protect the rights of the taxpayers, as we strive for social and economic promotion by encouraging youth recruitment”.

Minister Alamine Ousmane Mey particularly insists on “the new dynamic considered” in the agricultural sector, with “several tax incentives” to benefit from. These are, he specified, tax exemptions on the purchase of agricultural equipment, which “contribute to the improvement” of the production and competitiveness of the Cameroonian agriculture.
