São Tomé & Príncipe

- Growth in 2011 was moderate and is expected to remain so in the mid-term.
- The continuing and future reforms will continue to be focused on improving public financial management, banking supervision and labour regulations.
- Difficulties in integrating the young into the labour market are compounded by the absence of a youth employment policy.
