But the current financial crisis is not affecting the economies in the region to the same degree. The IMF Deputy Director of African Department, Benedict Vibe Christensen, emphasised that growth in sub-Saharan Africa, estimated at 6 percent, even in the face of the financial crisis, is one of the highest, with Cameroon registering 4.3 percent.
