Guinea
AfDB and Guinea
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.
Guinea Economic Outlook
Reforms, investment in mines, agriculture, and infrastructure, as well as the end of the Ebola crisis, contributed to an economic upturn in 2016. Real GDP grew 6.6%, reflecting strong performance in agriculture (which grew 5.8%), mining (which grew 33.5%), and energy (which grew 34%). Real GDP growth was an estimated 6.4% in 2017 and is projected to average 6.2% in 2018–19, driven by strong performances in mining, agriculture, and construction.
