财政部长泰沃·奥耶德莱公布了一份经济政策框架草案，旨在作为政府规划、预算和政策的蓝图，无论哪个政府执政均适用。
Finance Minister Taiwo Oyedele unveiled a draft economic policy framework designed to serve as a blueprint for government plans, budgets and policies, regardless of the administration in power.
“政策不确定性是企业面临的一项隐形税收，与大多数税收不同，它不会为政府带来任何收入，”奥耶德莱周一在首都阿布贾举行的经济峰会上表示。“它只会破坏价值并打击投资。”自2023年上任以来，博拉·蒂努布总统政府已实施了全面的经济变革，包括取消燃油补贴和彻底改革外汇制度。
“Policy uncertainty is an invisible tax on enterprise and unlike most taxes it generates no revenue for government,” Oyedele said at an economic summit in Abuja, the capital, on Monday. “It only destroys value and discourages investment.”President Bola Tinubu’s administration has implemented sweeping economic changes since taking office in 2023, including scrapping a fuel subsidy and overhauling the foreign-exchange system.
该文件已发布在财政部网站上，并向公众征求意见，截止日期为11月27日。文件设定了10项目标，包括使尼日利亚成为非洲最大经济体和世界20大经济体之一，同时保持经济增长持续高于人口增长。
The document was published on the Finance Ministry’s website and is open for public comment until Nov. 27. It sets out 10 targets, including making Nigeria Africa’s largest economy and one of the world’s 20 biggest, while keeping economic growth consistently above population growth.
文件还设想实现个位数通胀、可预测的汇率、利率低于10%、失业率低于5%、税收收入占国内生产总值（GDP）至少20%以及政府总收入占GDP至少30%。
It also envisages single-digit inflation, a predictable exchange rate, interest rates below 10%, unemployment below 5%, tax revenue of at least 20% of gross domestic product and overall government revenue of at least 30% of GDP.
为帮助巩固改革，当局正在就财政规则征求意见，这些规则可能包括管理由赤字、债务、借贷和大宗商品意外之财，以及在不损害央行独立性的前提下加强货币政策与财政政策协调的方式。
To help lock in the reforms, authorities are seeking views on fiscal rules, which could include governing deficits, debt, borrowing and commodity windfalls, as well as ways to strengthen coordination between monetary and fiscal policy without compromising the central bank’s independence.
根据该计划，“尼日利亚制定过许多经济规划，但缺乏一个持久的框架，规定经济政策决策应如何制定以及如何衡量总体成功。因此，政策往往具有反应性，各机构间不一致，且难以根据商定的标准进行评估。”奥耶德莱表示，紧急偏离既定政策将需要明确的触发条件、时间限制、披露成本以及一份重返框架的公开路径。
“Nigeria has had many economic plans, but no enduring framework setting out how economic policy decisions should be made and how overall success should be measured,” according to the plan. “As a result, policy has often been reactive, inconsistent across institutions and difficult to assess against agreed standards.”Emergency departures from agreed policy would need a clear trigger, time limit, disclosed cost and a published path back to the framework, Oyedele said.
草案还建议发布季度经济记分卡、年度经济政策报告和五年一次的综合评估，以督促当局负责。
The draft also suggests that a quarterly economic scorecard, annual economic policy report and five-year comprehensive review be published to hold authorities accountable.
奥耶德莱表示，该框架的关键条款最终可能被写入法律，政府最早将于明年寻求立法者批准。
Key provisions of the framework could eventually be written into law, with the government seeking lawmakers’ approval as early as next year, Oyedele said.
