The studies confirm that whenever adjustment programmes are vigorously pursued, results are strongly positive from the viewpoints of growth and alleviation of poverty. A key element in ensuring a successful adjustment programme is strong motivation and commitment by the leadership of each nation. Too many abrupt, unpredictable and frequent changes and reversals of policies erode the credibility of the programmes, intensify the uncertainties, and slow down investor confidence. In short, the success of reforms hinges on policy stability, continuity and predictability. 0aStructural adjustment (Economic policy)zAfrica, Sub-SaharanvCase studies. 4aAjuste estructural (Política económica)zAfrica Sub-Sahara vEstudios de casos  4aColección René Villarreal (CRV) 0aAfrica, Sub-SaharanxEconomic policyvCase studies. 4aAfrica Sub-Sahara xPolítica económica vEstudios de casos y19601 aHusain, Ishratd1941-eed.1 aFaruqee, Rashidd1938-eed.
