Guinea-Bissau Frontier-Märkte

Wirtschafts- und Branchenüberblick

Guinea-Bissau is one of West Africa's smallest and least-developed economies, classified as a low-income country by the World Bank. The economy is heavily dependent on cashew nut production and exports, which account for an estimated 85–90% of total merchandise exports and provide livelihoods for the majority of the rural population. Agriculture, including cashew cultivation, rice farming, and fisheries, forms the backbone of economic activity and contributes an estimated 40–50% of GDP. The services sector and construction have been growing contributors to recent economic expansion, with real GDP growing 4.8% in 2024. Guinea-Bissau is a member of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) and uses the CFA franc, providing a degree of monetary stability anchored to the euro.
