Overview

200 socio and macro-economic indicators, more than 600 tables, over 200 full-colour charts. Exciting and engaging presentation. Hundreds of illustrations. Tons of rigourous analyses. Insightful and pithy running commentary. Overall, an entirely absorbing and engaging volume. And quite possibly the most comprehensive comparative study yet done of Sub-Saharan Africa economies. This manual is an exhaustive macro-economic survey of all 48 Sub-Saharan Africa countries, as they performed during the 10 years leading to 2009/2010. It presents an in-depth portrait of their investment, economic, and business climates, through hundreds of extensive analyses. Data is gathered from a dozen veritable multilateral agencies including the World Bank, IMF, UNCTAD, UNICEF and the WTO. The 48 countries are ranked at several turns for hundreds of different economic properties and outcomes. Then there is an overall ranking conclusion in the final chapter. Thus, a climactic outcome of this exploration is the emergence of a yearly index (Dba Index, Ratings & Ranking) which, for the first time, engages Africa's economies across the entire spectrum of social, economic and business activity. The exploration delves deeper for West Africa, placing its 16 countries in comparative league tables of performance during contiguous four-year phases leading up to 2009-2010, and also for projections into the future, where possible. A lively running commentary threads through every chapter, picking up salient points and inferences. It tells its many stories from the perspective of West Africa's largest economy - Nigeria. ● ● ● ● Doing Business in West Africa will prove useful for businesses, multinational corporations, governments, diplomatic missions, development agencies, educational and research institutions; any organisation with significant interests and functions in Sub-Saharan Africa. It will be published in the first quarter of every year, with updated and re-analysed data.
