Senegal’s Strong Growth

Via Semafor, a reminder of Senegal’s strong economic growth:

Senegal’s economy is projected to grow by up to 5.3% this year boosted by its emerging oil and gas sector, said the International Monetary Fund this week. Despite facing challenges including “spillovers from the war in Ukraine, tighter financing conditions, and increased political instability in the region,” Senegal is still expected to be one of the fastest growing economies on the continent. Growth is forecast to accelerate to 10.6% in 2024 and 7.4% in 2025. However, non-hydrocarbon growth is expected to reach around 6% with prudent economic management.
