西亚非洲地区可分为西亚北非地区和撒哈拉以南非洲地区两个次区域。西亚北非地区2013~2014年的经济增长尽管已经出现反弹势头,但是地区局势紧张再次为其未来发展蒙上阴影。在经济增长反弹的同时,西亚北非地区国家还面临财政盈余大幅减少、投资环境不佳、私人部门不活跃、失业问题严重、就业过于依赖公共部门等诸多问题。撒哈拉以南非洲地区2013~2014年的经济增长较为强劲,基础设施和能源等领域投资旺盛,人口增长、实际人均收入提高以及价格相对稳定使得该地区私人消费强劲,政府消费也在稳步增长。撒哈拉以南非洲地区国家面临的主要问题包括:财政赤字高企,政府债务增速加快;失业率居高不下,年轻人失业问题尤为严重;出口放缓,进口需求强劲,经常项目赤字扩大。预计2015年西亚北非地区经济增长将进一步恢复,但复苏势头较为脆弱,容易出现反复;撒哈拉以南非洲地区经济增长仍将保持强劲。
<<In 2014,the economy of West Asia and North Africa rebounds,though escalate tension in the region casts a shadow over its future development. West Asia and North Africa also faced a number of problems,such as fiscal surplus is reduced substantially,the investment climate needs to be strengthened,the private sector is not active,and the rate of unemployment is rather high. The economy of Sub-Saharan Africa is relatively strong,while faces several challenges,such as fiscal deficit is high,the growth of government debt is gaining speed,the rate of unemployment is rather high,exports slowdown,imports are strong,and current-account deficit is yawning. In the future,the economy of West Asia and North Africa will recover further while still fragilely. The economy of Sub-Saharan Africa will remain strong.
