The Bank of Sierra Leone has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the International Growth Centre (IGC) to strengthen collaboration on economic research, policy analysis, and evidence-based decision-making.
Officials said the agreement is aimed at deepening cooperation in key areas such as macroeconomic stability, financial sector development, and inclusive growth strategies.
The partnership is expected to enhance the quality of economic policymaking by promoting research-driven approaches that support long-term development planning.
According to the central bank, the initiative aligns with its broader efforts to strengthen economic governance and build institutional capacity for sustainable national development.
Under the collaboration, the Bank of Sierra Leone and the IGC will undertake joint research initiatives designed to provide data-driven insights into economic challenges and opportunities facing the country.
Officials described the MoU as a significant step toward reinforcing the role of evidence-based policymaking in shaping Sierra Leone’s economic direction, particularly at a time when both global and domestic conditions are increasing demand for stronger analytical support in decision-making.
