And a veryDiverse Continent 
•By 2050, SSA’spopulation willhave increasedby 1,1 billion people , creatingverydiverse regions 
•First profile: the «Giants», whichpopulation willbeover 100 million people 
•Nigéria: 440 millions inhabitants, 29% of Africa’sGDP, 40% of the oilreservesof the continent 
•EAEC: a regionof 520 millions people withEthiopia, Tanzania, Ouganda, Kenya. A relativelyspread demographicand economicpotential 
•DRC: 150 million people by 2050 –and Kinshasa: 10 million citizens 
SustainableGiants? 
•A manageablesize? 
•A hugechallenge for investment 
PAGE 11
A veryDiverse Continent (continued) 
•Second profile: The bright second tier (between 40 and 60 million inhabitants by 2050) 
•Ghana, Côte d’Ivoire, l’Angolaetc. 
•Smaller size, fast growth 
•Important political regional role, agents of regional integration 
What about South Africa? 
•A challenged leadership 
•An important transformation of the economic model 
•Huge social challenge for the most unequal country of Africa, where one person out of which lives with AIDS 
•Third profile: the small countries, exposed to all the ups and downs… 
•A scattered group of dependent countries, that might achieve success without regional influence. 
•The most exposed group to political volatility and expanded fragility 
PAGE 12
New Visions of Africato emerge? 
•Anglophones vs Francophones: a distinction lessand lessrelevant, althoughstrongcultural, politicaland legaldifferencesstillremain 
•An emerging‘’afro-asiatic’’ co-prosperityzone? 
•And a new ‘’afro-atlantic’’co-prosperity zone? 
PAGE 13
A Continent at Risk? 
PAGE 14
A Giant withFeetof Clay 
•Growing Inequalities… 
•The second highest level of inequality in the world after Latin America… 
•Among the ten countries in the world where inequalities have grown faster, six are in SSA: Namibia, South Africa, Lesotho, Botswana, Sierra Leone and the Central African Republic 
•… And Insufficient Growth… 
•By 2030, 45 million jobs will be created at the current pace of growth, but 110 million people will arrive at working age… 
•Manufacturing growth still slow, and agricultural productivity increasing also slowly… 
•Fiscal revenues will not allow to maintain the investment levels that are necessary to raise out of absolute poverty the majority of the continent and to educate, feed and care 1.3 additional Africans by 2050 
•…Could increase Political and Social unrest, and hit Success Stories 
•Local conflicts can easily spread regionally 
•Continental and regional migrations as well as rush for natural resources increase conflicts 
•Local structural weaknesses can hit the rest of the continent: health disasters… 
•The Urbanization Process as the core Challenge 
•One billion additional urban dwellers by 2050? 
•A difficult process for land-tenure, governance and environmental reasons 
•A double challenge: welcoming and becoming competitive 
PAGE 15
And a still Narrow as well as Chaotic Economy 
•Few large corporations 
•Shallow financial markets 
•Limited services and suppliers availability 
•Infrastructure shortages 
•Low global productivity 
•And important remaining governance challenges
