The Ivory Coast is Africa’s fastest growing economy, according to the IMF’s latest World Economic Outlook. The West African nation’s GDP is expected to grow by 8.5% this year.
The Ivory Coast’s economy has benefited from government policies and structural reforms, which have resulted in strong inclusive growth, according to the World Bank. Strong economic activity has been maintained through a strong aggregate demand and increases in investment, both public and private.
Following in second place is Tanzania, with projected growth of just under 7% this year. Senegal completes the top three, with 6.6%. Countries from across Africa feature in the top 10, emphasizing the economic gains being felt around the continent.
