Progress report on the implementation of the 2008 System of National Accounts and related statistical systems in Africa
Abstract
The report highlights Africa's progress in implementing the 2008 System of National Accounts (SNA), with 95% of countries adopting or transitioning to it. Key advancements include GDP rebasing, quarterly national accounts compilation (31 countries), and environmental-economic accounting (21 countries). Challenges remain in data quality, informal sector integration, and resource mobilization. The report outlines ongoing initiatives such as the 2025 SNA testing, trade-in-value-added statistics, and AI-driven capacity-building while calling for enhanced technical support to align with global standards and leverage the African Continental Free Trade Area.
