Mining Exports Driving Namibian Current Account Deficit To Narrow
Country Risk / Namibia / Fri 05 Apr, 2019
Key View
- We at Fitch Solutions expect Namibia’s current account deficit to continue narrowing over 2019 and 2020, on the back of increasing mining sector exports improving the goods trade balance.
- We maintain our view for the current account’s trajectory over the coming years, but have changed our forecasts for the deficit to 4.6% of GDP in
