Overview

Angola’s real GDP growth has moderated to 2.09 percent in 2025, placing the country 133rd in the world and closely matching peers such as Belarus (2.10 percent) and Jamaica (2.10 percent). The 46‑year series shows a dramatic swing from an all‑time trough of –23.98 percent in 1993, when civil conflict and oil price shocks collapsed output, to a peak of 15.00 percent in 1995 as post‑war reconstruction and soaring oil revenues spurred rapid expansion. Since the mid‑2000s, growth has hovered in the low‑single digits, reflecting the volatility of oil‑dependent earnings, limited diversification, and periodic fiscal tightening. The modest 2025 figure indicates a gradual return to stability after the pandemic‑era slowdown, but the economy remains vulnerable to external commodity shocks. Sustained investment in non‑oil sectors and improved fiscal management could lift the trajectory, while renewed oil price volatility would likely depress future growth.
