Abstract

A significant decline in oil production weakened fiscal and external positions. Overall growth held up in 2025, partly supported by public spending. Inflation eased from its peak, partly due to tight monetary policy, but remained at double digits. Despite a pickup in non-oil economic growth in recent years, non-oil revenues remained constrained while oil revenues declined sharply. Angola’s access to international markets has improved but elevated fiscal financing needs continued to crowd out social spending and private credit while further weakening the external position. The 2026 budget envisages fiscal consolidation and reaffirms a commitment to prudent debt management to preserve macroeconomic stability while addressing critical spending needs.
