World Bank-Taking the Pulse of Africa's Economy

April 8, 2019--The growth story in Sub-Saharan Africa in the past few years has been one of faltering recovery from the worst economic crisis of the past two decades. This remains the case according to the April 2019, 19th edition of Africa's Pulse, which estimates GDP growth in 2018 at a lower-than-expected 2.3%, with a forecast to 2.8% in 2019.

The report notes that the three largest African economies-Nigeria, Angola and South Africa-play a big role in the region's growth. While Nigeria grew faster in 2018 than in 2017, thanks to a modest pick-up in the non-oil economy, growth remained below 2%.
