AFRICA DOMINATES LIST OF THE WORLD’S 20 FASTEST-GROWING ECONOMIES IN

economies

ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia, February 18, 2024/APO Group/ --

Report forecasts stronger growth for Africa in 2024, outpacing projected global
average; Continent is second-fastest-growing region after Asia.



Africa will account for eleven of the world’s 20 fastest-growing economies in
2024, the African Development Bank Group said in its latest Macroeconomic
Performance and Outlook (MEO) of the continent released on Friday.

Overall, real gross domestic product (GDP) growth for the continent is expected
to average 3.8% and 4.2% in 2024 and 2025, respectively. This is higher than
projected global averages of 2.9% and 3.2%, the report said.

The continent is set to remain the second-fastest-growing region after Asia.

The top 11 African countries projected to experience strong economic performance
forecast are Niger (11.2%), Senegal (8.2%), Libya (7.9%), Rwanda (7.2%), Cote
d’Ivoire (6.8%), Ethiopia (6.7%), Benin (6.4%), Djibouti (6.2%), Tanzania
(6.1%), Togo (6%), and Uganda at 6%.

“Despite the challenging global and regional economic environment, 15 African
countries have posted output expansions of more than 5%,” Bank Group President
Dr Akinwumi Adesina said, calling for larger pools of financing and several
policy interventions to further boost Africa’s growth.

Africa’s Macroeconomic Performance and Outlook, a biannual publication released
in the first and third quarters of each year, complements the existing African
Economic Outlook (AEO), which focuses on key emerging policy issues relevant to
the continent’s development.

The MEO report provides an up-to-date evidence-based assessment of the
continent’s recent macroeconomic performance and short-to-medium-term outlook
amid dynamic global economic developments.

The latest report is calling for cautious optimism given the challenges posed by
global and regional risks. These risks include rising geopolitical tensions,
increased regional conflicts, and political instability—all of which could
disrupt trade and investment flows, and perpetuate inflationary pressures.

President Adesina emphasised that fiscal deficits have improved, as
faster-than-expected recovery from the pandemic helped shore up revenue.

He explained further: “This has led to a stabilisation of the average fiscal
deficit at 4.9% in 2023, like 2022, but significantly less than the 6.9% average
fiscal deficit of 2020. The stabilisation is also due to the fiscal
consolidation measures, especially in countries with elevated risks of debt
distress.”

He cautioned that with the global economy mired in uncertainty, the fiscal
positions of the African continent will continue to be vulnerable to global
shocks.

The report shows that the medium-term growth outlook for the continent’s five
regions is slowly improving, a pointer to the continued resilience of Africa’s
economies.

Presenting the key findings of the report, the African Development Bank’s Chief
Economist and Vice President, Prof. Kevin Urama said: “Growth in Africa’s
top-performing economies has benefitted from a range of factors, including
declining commodity dependence through economic diversification, increasing
stra­tegic investment in key growth sectors, and rising both public and private
consumption, as well as positive developments in key export markets.”  

He added: “Africa’s economic growth is projected to regain moderate strength as
long as the global economy remains resilient, disinflation continues, investment
in infrastructure projects remains buoyant, and progress is sustained on debt
restructuring and fiscal consolidation.”

> countries have posted output expansions of more than 5%

“The future of Africa rests on economic integration. Our small economies are not
competitive in the global market. A healthy internal African trade market can
ensure value-added and intra-African production of manufactured goods,” said
Commissioner for Economic Development, Trade, Tourism, Industry and Minerals,
African Union Commission, Ambassador Albert Muchanga.

He assured that the MEO forecast, and recommendations will be made available to
African heads of state and that the report will be useful when the African Union
makes its proposals to the G20- an informal gathering of many of the world’s
largest economies to which the African Union was admitted last year.

The improved growth figure for 2024 reflects concerted efforts by the
continent’s policymakers to drive economic diversification strategies focused on
increased investment in key growth sectors, as well as the implementation of
domestic policies aimed at consolidating fiscal positions and reversing the
increase in the cost of living and boosting private consumption.

Speaking remotely, Zimbabwe’s Minister of Finance and Economic Development, Prof
Mthuli Ncube described the report as being “on point” and consistent with the
reality in his country, describing it as useful for economic planning across
Africa. He urged the African Development Bank to continue its thought leadership
to help policymakers continue to build resilience to withstand shocks and drive
growth.

Ncube said: “Zimbabwe expects slower growth due to climate shocks in the region.
Southern African countries depend on agriculture for economic growth, so
climate-proofing agriculture is key. We are in talks with creditors to
restructure its debt, which is slowing economic growth. Internally, the country
will focus on economic and governance reforms and reforms around property rights
to increase agricultural production.”

Up to 41 countries across the continent will in 2024, achieve an economic growth
rate of 3.8%, and in 13 of them, growth will be more than 1 percentage point
higher than in 2023.

Director of the Center for Sustainable Development, Columbia University
Prof Jeffrey Sachs noted that long-term affordable financing must be part of
Africa’s strategy to achieve growth of 7% or more per year and warned that
Africa is paying a very high-risk premium for debt financing. He called for this
point to be made to the G20.

“Long-term development cannot be based on short-term loans. Loans to Africa
should be at least 25 years or longer. Short-term borrowing is dangerous for
long-term development. Africa must act as one, in scale,” he explained.

Sachs, who is also the UN Secretary-General António Guterres’ Advocate for
Sustainable Development Goals also called for a much larger African Development
Bank, better resourced to meet Africa’s financing needs.

Overview of economic outlook across regions

The confluence of shocks notwithstanding, the resilience of the continent’s
economies remains strong, with positive growth projected for the continent’s
five regions.

 * East Africa: East Africa will continue to lead Africa’s growth momentum, with
   growth projected to rise to 5.1% in 2024 and 5.7% in 2025, supported by
   strong strategic investments to improve internal connectivity and deepen
   intra-regional trade.
 * North Africa: Successive adverse weather conditions and macroeconomic
   challenges will hold the region’s growth steady at 3.9% in 2024 with a slight
   improvement to 4.1% in 2025.
 * Central Africa: Growth is forecast to moderate to 3.5% in 2024 but projected
   recovery in private consumption and increases in mining investment and
   exports could help push growth to 4.1% in 2025.
 * Southern Africa: Growth will remain sluggish at 2.2 and 2.6% in 2024 and
   2025, respectively. This reflects continued economic weakness in South
   Africa, the region’s largest economy.
 * West Africa: Growth is projected to pick up to 4 and 4.4% in 2024 and 2025
   respectively. Strong growth in most countries in the region is projected to
   offset slowdowns in Nigeria and Ghana. The announced withdrawal of Burkina
   Faso, Mali, and Niger from the Economic Community of West African States
   (ECOWAS) casts a shadow over the sustainability of gains amid growing
   uncertainty.



Driving faster and more sustainable economic growth

The 2024 MEO says in the short term, tackling persistent inflation will need a
mix of restraining monetary policy coupled with fiscal consolidation and stable
exchange rates.

The report identifies structural reforms and strategic industrial policies as
key to accelerating economic diversification and strengthening the export
sector.

It recommends that countries invest more in human capital and pursue a
resource-based industrialisation and diversification strategy that allows the
continent to exploit its comparative advantage and build resilience to shocks.

Africa dominates list of the world’s 20 fastest-growing economies in
2024—African Development Bank says in macroeconomic report The report shows that
the medium-term growth outlook for the continent’s five regions is slowly
improving, a pointer to the continued resilience of Africa’s economies ADDIS
ABABA, Ethiopia, February 18, 2024/APO Group/ -- Report forecasts stronger
growth for Africa in 2024, outpacing projected global average; Continent is
second-fastest-growing region after Asia. Africa will account for eleven of the
world’s 20 fastest-growing economies in 2024, the African Development Bank Group
said in its latest Macroeconomic Performance and Outlook (MEO) of the continent
released on Friday. Overall, real gross domestic product (GDP) growth for the
continent is expected to average 3.8% and 4.2% in 2024 and 2025, respectively.
This is higher than projected global averages of 2.9% and 3.2%, the report said.
The continent is set to remain the second-fastest-growing region after Asia. The
top 11 African countries projected to experience strong economic performance
forecast are Niger (11.2%), Senegal (8.2%), Libya (7.9%), Rwanda (7.2%), Cote
d’Ivoire (6.8%), Ethiopia (6.7%), Benin (6.4%), Djibouti (6.2%), Tanzania
(6.1%), Togo (6%), and Uganda at 6%. “Despite the challenging global and
regional economic environment, 15 African countries have posted output
expansions of more than 5%,” Bank Group President Dr Akinwumi Adesina said,
calling for larger pools of financing and several policy interventions to
further boost Africa’s growth. Africa’s Macroeconomic Performance and Outlook, a
biannual publication released in the first and third quarters of each year,
complements the existing African Economic Outlook (AEO), which focuses on key
emerging policy issues relevant to the continent’s development. The MEO report
provides an up-to-date evidence-based assessment of the continent’s recent
macroeconomic performance and short-to-medium-term outlook amid dynamic global
economic developments. The latest report is calling for cautious optimism given
the challenges posed by global and regional risks. These risks include rising
geopolitical tensions, increased regional conflicts, and political
instability—all of which could disrupt trade and investment flows, and
perpetuate inflationary pressures. President Adesina emphasised that fiscal
deficits have improved, as faster-than-expected recovery from the pandemic
helped shore up revenue. He explained further: “This has led to a stabilisation
of the average fiscal deficit at 4.9% in 2023, like 2022, but significantly less
than the 6.9% average fiscal deficit of 2020. The stabilisation is also due to
the fiscal consolidation measures, especially in countries with elevated risks
of debt distress.” He cautioned that with the global economy mired in
uncertainty, the fiscal positions of the African continent will continue to be
vulnerable to global shocks. The report shows that the medium-term growth
outlook for the continent’s five regions is slowly improving, a pointer to the
continued resilience of Africa’s economies. Presenting the key findings of the
report, the African Development Bank’s Chief Economist and Vice President,
Prof. Kevin Urama said: “Growth in Africa’s top-performing economies has
benefitted from a range of factors, including declining commodity dependence
through economic diversification, increasing stra­tegic investment in key growth
sectors, and rising both public and private consumption, as well as positive
developments in key export markets.”   He added: “Africa’s economic growth is
projected to regain moderate strength as long as the global economy remains
resilient, disinflation continues, investment in infrastructure projects remains
buoyant, and progress is sustained on debt restructuring and fiscal
consolidation.” “The future of Africa rests on economic integration. Our small
economies are not competitive in the global market. A healthy internal African
trade market can ensure value-added and intra-African production of manufactured
goods,” said Commissioner for Economic Development, Trade, Tourism, Industry and
Minerals, African Union Commission, Ambassador Albert Muchanga. He assured that
the MEO forecast, and recommendations will be made available to African heads of
state and that the report will be useful when the African Union makes its
proposals to the G20- an informal gathering of many of the world’s largest
economies to which the African Union was admitted last year. The improved growth
figure for 2024 reflects concerted efforts by the continent’s policymakers to
drive economic diversification strategies focused on increased investment in key
growth sectors, as well as the implementation of domestic policies aimed at
consolidating fiscal positions and reversing the increase in the cost of living
and boosting private consumption. Speaking remotely, Zimbabwe’s Minister of
Finance and Economic Development, Prof Mthuli Ncube described the report as
being “on point” and consistent with the reality in his country, describing it
as useful for economic planning across Africa. He urged the African Development
Bank to continue its thought leadership to help policymakers continue to build
resilience to withstand shocks and drive growth. Ncube said: “Zimbabwe expects
slower growth due to climate shocks in the region. Southern African countries
depend on agriculture for economic growth, so climate-proofing agriculture is
key. We are in talks with creditors to restructure its debt, which is slowing
economic growth. Internally, the country will focus on economic and governance
reforms and reforms around property rights to increase agricultural production.”
Up to 41 countries across the continent will in 2024, achieve an economic growth
rate of 3.8%, and in 13 of them, growth will be more than 1 percentage point
higher than in 2023. Director of the Center for Sustainable Development,
Columbia University Prof Jeffrey Sachs noted that long-term affordable financing
must be part of Africa’s strategy to achieve growth of 7% or more per year and
warned that Africa is paying a very high-risk premium for debt financing. He
called for this point to be made to the G20. “Long-term development cannot be
based on short-term loans. Loans to Africa should be at least 25 years or
longer. Short-term borrowing is dangerous for long-term development. Africa must
act as one, in scale,” he explained. Sachs, who is also the UN Secretary-General
António Guterres’ Advocate for Sustainable Development Goals also called for a
much larger African Development Bank, better resourced to meet Africa’s
financing needs. Overview of economic outlook across regions The confluence of
shocks notwithstanding, the resilience of the continent’s economies remains
strong, with positive growth projected for the continent’s five regions.
 * East Africa: East Africa will continue to lead Africa’s growth momentum, with
   growth projected to rise to 5.1% in 2024 and 5.7% in 2025, supported by
   strong strategic investments to improve internal connectivity and deepen
   intra-regional trade.
 * North Africa: Successive adverse weather conditions and macroeconomic
   challenges will hold the region’s growth steady at 3.9% in 2024 with a slight
   improvement to 4.1% in 2025.
 * Central Africa: Growth is forecast to moderate to 3.5% in 2024 but projected
   recovery in private consumption and increases in mining investment and
   exports could help push growth to 4.1% in 2025.
 * Southern Africa: Growth will remain sluggish at 2.2 and 2.6% in 2024 and
   2025, respectively. This reflects continued economic weakness in South
   Africa, the region’s largest economy.
 * West Africa: Growth is projected to pick up to 4 and 4.4% in 2024 and 2025
   respectively. Strong growth in most countries in the region is projected to
   offset slowdowns in Nigeria and Ghana. The announced withdrawal of Burkina
   Faso, Mali, and Niger from the Economic Community of West African States
   (ECOWAS) casts a shadow over the sustainability of gains amid growing
   uncertainty.

Driving faster and more sustainable economic growth The 2024 MEO says in the
short term, tackling persistent inflation will need a mix of restraining
monetary policy coupled with fiscal consolidation and stable exchange rates. The
report identifies structural reforms and strategic industrial policies as key to
accelerating economic diversification and strengthening the export sector. It
recommends that countries invest more in human capital and pursue a
resource-based industrialisation and diversification strategy that allows the
continent to exploit its comparative advantage and build resilience to shocks.
