Zambia
- The outlook for the Zambian economy remains favourable in the medium term, underpinned by good performances and outputs in many sectors and by single figure inflation.
- The country remains vulnerable to external shocks, including risks from a sluggish global economic recovery.
- High youth unemployment and slow progress in poverty reduction overshadow any gains made from growth and limited inflation.
