12 NOVEMBER 2012 - TOWARDS A NEW AFRICAN ECONOMIC

Page 13: Towards a new african economy - An analysis by I&P / Investisseurs & Partenaires

GROWTH IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA REMAINS HETEROGENEOUS, FRAGILE AND INSUFFICIENT

• Heterogeneous growth: 48 sub-Saharan African countries do not face the same problems of development o The difference in GDP between middle-income countries and fragile states has doubled in 20 years

• A fragile growth: balance of commodity exports weakens undiversified by exposing them to the volatility of world economies o Outside of South Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa achieve at least 75% of their exports with only 8 products

o In six of them, one type of export accounts for 85% of total exports

• Insufficient growth: the development gap with other regions of the world remain significant o In 2011, the African HDI remains below 52% in the North American HDI, against 56% in 1980

1. GROWTH UNEVENLY DISTRIBUTED

The International Monetary Fund distinguishes 4 groups of countries:

• Oil countries: Angola, Cameroon, Chad, Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Nigeria

• Middle income countries: Botswana, Cape Verde, Ghana, Lesotho, Mauritius, Namibia, Senegal, Seychelles, South Africa, Swaziland, Zambia

• Low-income countries: Benin, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Gambia, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Niger, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Uganda

• Fragile States: Burundi, Central African Republic, Comoros, Democratic Republic of Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Eritrea, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Togo, Zimbabwe

2. A FRAGILE GROWTH…

• Exports from Sub-Saharan Africa are largely composed of unprocessed raw materials. This strategy has important disadvantages o Dutch disease: over-appreciation of the exchange rate which hampers the export manufacturing sectors

o Grabbing investment and neglect other productive sectors (more)

o Exposure to the downturn in international prices

o Weak effects of trainings

o Kleptocracy - civil wars

• In addition, sub-Saharan Africa is experiencing a very important infrastructure needs. o In particular, it needs to increase its 7000 MWatt annual capacity of electricity generation

o The World Bank estimates the necessary investment to $ 93 billion per year, 40% for energy

3. GROWTH UNEVENLY DISTRIBUTED THAT DOES NOT ALWAYS SUPPORTS DEVELOPMENT

• Sub-Saharan Africa has the rate of extreme poverty the most important in the world despite a decrease of 10 points in 20 years o Between 1990 and 2000, the share of population living on less than $ 1.25 / day increased from 56.5% to

47.5%

o However, population growth is the absolute number of poor has increased by 33% over the same period

• For growth generates human development, economic growth must be inclusive and redistributive. Countries as Equatorial Guinea illustrate that this is not always the case. Between 1990 and 2010: o per capita income has increased by 16

o while it remains the 13th country in life expectancy the lowest in the world (51)

FINALLY, THE AFRICAN GROWTH MUST BE INCLUSIVE

• Africa has the youngest population in the world and it is growing rapidly o 200 million inhabitants aged 15-24 years in 2011

o 10 million new entrants to the job market each year

o nearly a billion of jobseekers in 2040

• Mass unemployment coupled with a highly urban population may have serious consequences in political and social terms

• A generator inclusive job growth, requires the development of the private sector which is responsible for 90% of employment in developing countries

1. CAPITAL INVESTMENT PROGRESS IN AFRICA

• Over the period 2008-2011, SSA has received an average 4.4% of the funds raised for all emerging countries, representing 3.1% of the investment (the major remaining area of Asia)

• With over less than 100 million and less than greater than $ 1 billion fund money for the rest of the emerging markets

• Relative to GDP, the activity of capital investment in SSA was comparable to that of BRIC in 2008 and 2009 (0.29% and 0.15% of GDP)

2. THE DISTRIBUTION OF CAPITAL INVESTMENT GROWS ON THE CONTINENT

• The activity is concentrated in a handful of markets: South Africa, Kenya, Nigeria ...

• But diversification is at work: the three countries in 2010 had fallen to "only" 56% of the total number of investments (against 74% and 73% in 2008 and 2009)

• Among the new countries attraction: Benin, Congo, Ghana, Liberia, Madagascar, Tanzania ...
