Imports in Nigeria
Nigeria - Imports (percent change)
Available indicators point to more upbeat activity in Q2, on the heels of relatively-subdued growth in Q1. According to preliminary OPEC data, oil production picked up noticeably in Q2, which, coupled with higher crude prices, on average, in the same period, suggests that the sector helped buoy overall GDP growth. Moreover, the PMI trended marginally above the first-quarter average, signaling that business activity largely retained momentum in Q2. That said, a marked fall in confidence among consumers, primarily on their weaker assessment of household income, hints that private consumption may have lost some stride. In other news, the state-owned oil company recently laid out plans to revamp the industry’s refining capacity. These include partnering up with a private refinery that is currently under construction in Lagos and is expected to be completed by end-2020, with the potential of transforming the country from a fuel importer to a net exporter.Nigeria - Imports (%) Data
