  • RISING MIDDLE CLASS – AFRICA OUTLOOK and GROWTH POTENTIAL the Swiss Perspective on the Example of Nigeria Table of Contents
    RISING MIDDLE CLASS – AFRICA OUTLOOK AND GROWTH POTENTIAL The Swiss perspective on the example of Nigeria Table of contents Foreword 1. Executive summary 2. The global Rising Middle Class (RMC) 3. The African RMC – definitions, drivers and trends 4. The Rising Middle Class in Nigeria 3.1 Nigeria at a glance 3.2 Industry insights and RMC opportunities 5. Case studies of Swiss companies in Nigeria 6. Key takeaways for SMEs Appendix 2 Foreword In early 2015, through a study drafted in cooperation with PwC, S-GE drew attention to the phenomenon of the Rising Middle Class, especially in Asia. Now, turning to examine Africa, how is the middle class developing in Africa and what opportunities does this create? Will Africa become a favored destination of growth opportunities for Swiss companies? And what are the obstacles to business success in Africa that need to be overcome? Even though the absolute numbers are much smaller compared with Asian markets, the Rising Middle Class is a reality in Africa, too. While the vast proportion of poor inhabitants remains the main challenge facing Africa, some 21%–36% (depending upon the definition applied) of the population of Africa belong to the new middle class. To understand better the phenomenon of the Rising Middle Class, it is suggested to focus on Nigeria: of the 54 states that make up the African continent, it represents the market with the largest economy and it with a strong average growth in the last years (around 8% p.a). With 174 million inhabitants, it is one of the most highly populated countries in the world having an enormous growth potential in the next years.
