Botswana Fronteira

Visão geral da economia e do setor

Botswana is a landlocked upper-middle-income country in Southern Africa whose economy is heavily anchored in diamond mining, which accounts for approximately 80% of export revenues and a significant share of government receipts. The services sector contributes roughly 70% of GDP and includes retail, financial services, and a growing tourism industry centred on wildlife and ecotourism. Real GDP contracted an estimated 0.7–0.9% in 2025, driven by a 24% decline in mining output amid weak global diamond demand and the structural shift toward lab-grown stones. The country maintains strong institutions, low public debt relative to peers, and is consistently ranked the least corrupt country in mainland Africa. Diversification away from diamond dependence into financial services, tourism, agriculture, and manufacturing remains a central policy priority.
