Botswana I Ethopia I The Gambia I Ghana I Kenya I Malawi I Mauritius I Namibia I Nigeria I Senegal I South Africa I Swaziland I Tanzania I Togo I Uganda I Zambia I Zimbabwe After a decade of World Bank and IMF-sponsored reforms – or rather attempts at reform – the Togolese economy remains stagnant, with GDP growth of just 1% in 2005 compared with population growth of about 2.72%. Lack of transparency in government institutions has hampered efforts to implement economic reform measures and encourage foreign investment. Periodic bouts of political unrest have been problematic for Togo’s development.
