AGP Executive Report
Last update: 10 hours agoOil Expansion: Congolese tycoon Lucien Ebata says Trident OGX aims to lift output from about 2,500 barrels a day to as much as 50,000 by 2027, with growth centered on the Mengo-Kundji-Bindi fields near Pointe-Noire. 2027 Budget: The government has proposed 680 billion FCFA in public investment, including spending on infrastructure, energy, transport and agriculture. Its plan forecasts 6.9% growth and 112 million barrels of oil production, while debt reduction depends partly on securing external financing and an IMF programme. Credit Outlook: Moody’s moved the Republic of Congo’s outlook to positive, citing stronger regional conditions and reforms; the change is not a credit-rating upgrade and does not guarantee cheaper borrowing. Currency Update: Five older CEMAC coin series lose legal tender status on November 1. BEAC says holders will have a one-year exchange period, but has yet to announce where and how coins can be exchanged.
