Equatorial Guinea’s political stability and significant economic opportunities are attracting growing interest from foreign businesses, especially in extracting oil deposits. This provides a favourable medium-term outlook, particularly in natural-gas extraction projects. The main challenge the country faces is using these substantial revenue inflows efficiently to diversify the economy.
