Madagascar Economic Outlook
- The economy expanded by 4.0% in 2016 with 4.5% predicted for 2017 after five years of sluggish growth.
- This growth will depend on political stability and enactment of structural reforms.
- To speed up industrialisation and promote inclusive growth, the government must push ahead with creating special economic zones (SEZ) and helping micro enterprises to flourish via a financial sector adapted to the needs of start-ups.
