Malawi At-A-Glance

Malawi’s economy has been significantly weakened by a series of exogenous shocks and persistent macro-fiscal imbalances. Growth is projected to decline to 0.9% in 2022, from 2.8% in 2021, with lower agricultural output, erratic electricity supply, forex shortages affecting importation of raw materials and high global commodity prices. Economic growth is projected to slightly increase in 2023 but remain subdued. The economic recovery is projected to be gradual and significant risks remain.
