A member country with a potential but not immediate balance of payments need can treat access under the SCF [Standby Credit Facility] as precautionary, in which case no disbursements are made. However, countries retain and accumulate the rights to request disbursements under the arrangement if a financing need were to arise at a later stage.

CONT

Un pays membre qui, sans avoir un besoin immédiat de balance des paiements, estime qu'il pourrait en connaître un à brève échéance peut avoir recours à la FCC [facilité de crédit de confirmation] sous forme d’un accord de précaution, auquel cas aucun décaissement n'a lieu. Toutefois, le pays accumule et conserve ses droits de demander des décaissements au titre de l’accord pour le cas où il connaîtrait un besoin de financement par la suite.
