The International Monetary Fund expects Mauritania’s economic growth to almost triple in 2025 fueled by gas exports set to start in the second half of this year.
Gross domestic product growth of 5.1% predicted for 2024 is forecast to reach 14.3% in 2025 based on mining and gas revenue from the Grand Tortue Ahmeyim development, said Felix Fischer, the IMF’s head of mission to Mauritania.
