Episode 93: Consumer outlook for Sub-Saharan Africa - a podcast by Hear what our experts are saying

Sub-Saharan Africa suffered a sharp economic contraction over the last year. Pandemic lockdowns, trade and supply Chain disruptions, and employment disruptions had a marked impact on household and business wallets. In today’s episode, our SSA and PMI teams discuss the speed and magnitude of recovery across the region as countries begin to reopen despite the pandemic and slow vaccine rollouts. They will focus in our PMI data as they look at employment condition, recovery efforts, and what this ultimately means for the consumer.
