As global economic uncertainties deepen and geopolitical tensions reshape trade flows, the African Export-Import Bank Afreximbank on Wednesday unveiled a series of strategic reports aimed at charting a survival roadmap for Africa.
Released at its 2025 Annual Meetings in Abuja, Nigeria, the new publications - the African Trade and Economic Outlook 2025 and the African Trade Report 2025 - offer practical policy recommendations and bold economic strategies to help African nations navigate the turbulence of a volatile global order.
Group chief economist Yemi Kale, in his presentation on the reports, stressed that they are not mere compendiums, but strategic narratives grounded in data and insights.
They are to enable policymakers on the continent to make sense of the emerging vulnerabilities in the world and chart a course through them.
According to Kale, the African Trade and Economic Outlook and the African Trade Report, aside from identifying risks and providing forecasts, also provide a road map for growth and portray Africa's resilience in a changing world.
