Guinea
- Economic growth should accelerate in 2012 and 2013.
- The satisfactory outcome of the implementation of the referral programme should make it possible for the country to reach an agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
- The mismatch between education and training on the one hand and the needs of the labour market on the other lies behind the high rate of 30% unemployment among the young.
Cooperation between the African Development Bank (AfDB) and Guinea dates back to 1974. As of October 2011, the Bank Group had financed 77 operations (58 projects, nine studies, seven institutional support operations and three non-project loans) valued at approximately US $818 million. Bank-funded projects are primarily in the areas of infrastructure/energy, agriculture, the social sector and multi-sector.
