The World Bank has approved a $500 million credit facility to help Tunisia, The Wall Street Journal reports. The 30 year loan will help introduce more anti-corruption measures, improve employment and reform the financial sector. It will also help reduce the risks of an economic downturn. The credit facility is part of a broader financial support package that may total $1.5 billion over the next two years.
