The Pakistan Business Council (PBC) is a business policy advocacy forum, representing private-sector businesses that have substantial investments in Pakistan’s economy. It was formed in 2005 by 14 (now 48) of Pakistan’s largest enterprises, including multinationals, to allow businesses to meaningfully interact with government and other stakeholders.

The Pakistan Business Council is a pan-industry advocacy group. It is not a trade body nor does it advocate for any specific business sector. Rather, its key advocacy thrust is on easing barriers to allow Pakistani businesses to compete in regional and global arenas.

The PBC works closely with the relevant government departments, ministries, regulators and institutions, as well as other stakeholders including professional bodies, to develop consensus on major issues which impact the conduct of business in and from Pakistan. It also serves on various taskforces and committees of the Government of Pakistan as well as those of the State Bank, SECP and other regulators with the objective to provide policy assistance on new initiatives and reforms.

The PBC conducts research and holds conferences and seminars to facilitate the flow of relevant information to all stakeholders in order to help create an informed view on the major issues faced by Pakistan.

The PBC’s Founding Objectives:

• To provide for the formation and exchange of views on any question connected with the conduct of businesses in and from Pakistan.

• To conduct, organize, set up, administer and manage campaigns, surveys, focus groups, workshops, seminars and fieldwork for carrying out research and raising awareness in regard to matters affecting businesses in Pakistan.

• To acquire, collect, compile, analyze, publish and provide statistics, data analysis and other information relating to businesses of any kind, nature or description and on opportunities for such businesses within and outside Pakistan.

• To promote and facilitate the integration of businesses in Pakistan into the world economy and to encourage the development and growth of Pakistani multinationals.

• To interact with Governments in the economic development of Pakistan and to facilitate, foster and further the economic, social and human resource development of Pakistan.

The PBC is a Section 42 not-for-profit Company Limited by Guarantee. Its working is overseen by a Board of Directors elected every three years by the Membership with the Board being headed by a Non-Executive Chairman. The day-to-day operations of the PBC are run by a professional secretariat headed by a full-time, paid CEO. More information on the PBC, its members, and its workings, can be found on its website: www.pbc.org.pk

Republic of Angola iii The PBC’s Member Companies The PBC’s Member Companies Executive Summary

The Africa Country Series is part of an effort by The Pakistan Business Council (PBC) to highlight trade and investment opportunities in countries in Africa which have traditionally not been major trading partners with Pakistan. With growth slowing in Pakistan’s traditional markets in the developed countries, and exports stagnating in the US$24 – 25.0 billion range, it is imperative that Pakistani firms look for new markets.

This brief Study on the Republic of Angola is the fourth in the Africa Country Series; short studies have already been published on Ethiopia, Nigeria & South Africa. The PBC’s Research Unit is currently preparing Country Profiles of Mozambique & Ghana which are expected to be available before end of March.

The table below shows a comparison of Pakistan and Angola’s economies. Angola’s GDP and population are much smaller than Pakistan’s, however its per capita income is more than 4 times Pakistan’s! Oil dominates Angola’s economy and the trade surplus is almost entirely due to oil.

Other than oil Angola’s main exports are diamonds and other mineral resources. Angola’s main trading partner is China. India is among its top 10 trading partners. However, Angola’s bilateral trade with Pakistan was just $40 million in 2014 whereas Pakistan’s potential exports to Angola are $2.9 billion. High potential export products to Angola include rice, sugar, wheat, medicaments, medical instruments and appliances, items of apparel, structures & parts of structures and cement.

Although still amongst the fastest growing economies in Africa, Angola’s GDP growth has recently slowed due to falling oil prices as well as its own weak performance in the oil sector. While business opportunities exist in the fuel, diamond and agricultural sectors among others, investment also poses high risks due to high on-the-ground costs with bureaucratic and legal complexities in the business environment.

China is one of the main sources of FDI for Angola. The sectors for investment include oil, mining, especially diamonds, and agriculture. Though the business environment in Angola faces an underdeveloped financial system and poor infrastructure, the financial sector has seen significant growth. Infrastructure has made a net contribution of 1% to Angola’s improved per capita growth performance in recent years. Reportedly billions are being pumped in the Angolan economy through Angola’s sovereign wealth fund (mostly funded through Angola’s vi Republic of Angola trade surplus due to its oil exports) and the African Development Bank and the World Bank to help Angola develop its infrastructure.

Political Structure: Angola is governed by a President who is assisted by a Vice President and a team of Ministers and Vice Ministers, all appointed by the President. Political power rests mainly with the Presidency. The Council of Ministers, composed of all government ministers and vice ministers, meets regularly to debate and approve policy matters. The central government in Luanda administers the country through 18 provinces through Governors appointed by the President.

Angola’s latest constitution was implemented in February, 2010. Under it, the presidential elections were abolished with the leader of the party with most parliamentary seats automatically becoming president. The head of state is President Jose Eduardo dos Santos; he has been head of state since 1979. The next legislative elections are scheduled for 2017.

The ruling party, with 175 seats out of 220 seats in the parliament, is People’s Movement for Liberation of Angola (MPLA). The main opposition party is National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA). UNITA has 32 seats in the parliament. The remaining 13 seats are divided between the Social Renovation Party and other political parties.

Legal system: Strength of legal rights index measures the degree to which collateral and bankruptcy laws protect the rights of borrowers and lenders and thus facilitate lending. The index ranges from 0 to 12, with higher scores indicating that these laws are better designed to expand access to credit.

Angola’s legal and judicial system lacks capacity and is inefficient. Legal fees are high and most businesses avoid taking commercial disputes to court. The World Bank’s Ease of Doing 06 Republic of Angola Business in 2016 survey ranks Angola at 185 out of 189 on contract enforcement and estimates that commercial contract enforcement, measured by time elapsed between filing a complaint and receiving restitution, takes an average of 1,011 days, at an average cost of 44.4% of the claim.

SECTION II Angola’’’s History

Republic of Angola 09 10 Republic of Angola Angola’s History:

Angola was once a Portuguese colony. The Portuguese began arriving in the region from the late 15th century when the region, which is now Angola, comprised of small kingdoms such as the Kingdom of Congo and the Kingdom of Ndongo ruled by the “ngola” which meant king or ruler in the local language. Modern Angola derives its name from the word “ngola”. Though the Portuguese were challenged by the local monarchs, they gradually took control of the coastal strip throughout the 16th century by a series of treaties and wars. By 1671, the Portuguese had achieved military conquest of the Kingdom of Congo and the Kingdom of Ndongo though full Portuguese administrative control of the interior did not occur until the beginning of the 20th century.

Portugal’s primary interest in Angola was slavery. In early 16th century, slaves were sent to work on sugar plantations in São Tomé, Principé and Brazil. By the 19th century, Angola was also a major source of slaves for the Americas which is modern day North America and South America.

The slave trade in Angola was officially abolished in 1836, but agriculture in Portuguese- influenced territories such as Brazil relied on Angolan ‘workers’ until well into the 1900s. By the end of the 19th century, a forced labor system had replaced formal slavery. It was the forced labor system that provided the basis of the initial plantation economy and, by the mid- 20th century, a major mining sector.

Portugal used its colony to export materials such as rubber and ivory, as well as taxing the local population. After the fall of the Portuguese monarchy in 1910, some reforms were introduced and Angola became a province of Portugal. However, the existing Portuguese regime encouraged white immigration which intensified racial antagonisms.

After World War II, political movements in Angola began to demand more rights and independence. Portugal refused and as a result a civil war ensued.The three main independence movements which emerged in Angola were:

• MPLA: The Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola (Movimento Popular da Libertação de Angola, MPLA) led by , with a base among Kimbundu and the mixed-race intelligentsia of Luanda and links to communist parties in Portugal and the East Bloc.

• FNLA: The National Front for the Liberation of Angola (Frente Nacional para a Libertação de Angola, FNLA), led by Holden Roberto with an ethnic base in the Bakongo region of the north and links to the United States and the Mobutu regime in Kinshasa.

• UNITA: The National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (União Nacional para a Indepêndencia Total de Angola, UNITA), led by Jonas Malheiro Savimbi with an ethnic and regional base in the Ovimbundu heartland in the center of the country and links to the People’s Republic of China and apartheid South Africa.

From the early 1960s, elements of these movements fought against the Portuguese. A 1974 coup d’etat in Portugal established a military government that resulted in power being handed over in Angola to a coalition of the three movements. The ideological differences between the three movements eventually led to armed conflict, with FNLA and UNITA forces, encouraged by their respective international supporters, attempting to wrest control of Luanda from the

Republic of Angola 11 MPLA.

The intervention of troops from South Africa on behalf of UNITA and Zaire on behalf of the FNLA in September and October 1975 and the MPLA’s importation of Cuban troops in November effectively internationalized the conflict.

Retaining control of Luanda, the coastal strip, and the oil fields in Cabinda, the MPLA declared independence on November 11, 1975, the day the Portuguese abandoned the capital thus 1975 is known as the year in which Angola finally won independence. UNITA and the FNLA formed a rival coalition government based in the interior city of Huambo. Agostinho Neto became the first president of the MPLA government that was recognized by the United Nations in 1976. Upon Neto’s death from cancer in 1979, the then-Planning Minister José Eduardo dos Santos became President.

In 1979, the fighting between the MPLA and UNITA intensified. The independence movement had been made up of three rival groups but once Angola achieved independence, the groups became rivals. The Marxist MPLA were backed by the Soviet Union and Cuba. UNITA was supported by the USA and the white government of South Africa. In 1988, a ceasefire was agreed and maintained by a United Nations peacekeeping force. But after an MPLA election- win in 1992, won by José Eduardo dos Santos, the opposition party again took up arms. A peace treaty was signed in 1994 but this agreement eventually collapsed into renewed conflict. In 1997, the UN imposed sanctions on UNITA and the Angolan military launched a massive operation against UNITA which destroyed much of its resources and recaptured the cities held by them.

27 years of civil war finally ended in 2002, when Jonas Savimbi the leader of UNITA was killed. The Angolan government and UNITA signed the Luena Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), which formalized the de facto cease-fire that prevailed following Savimbi’s death.By the time peace was declared in 2002, around 1.5 million people had been killed and more than 4 million forced to flee their homes.

In 2003, UNITA and MPLA held their first post-war party congresses in which UNITA transferred power from interim leader General Paulo Lukumba “Gato” to former UNITA representative in Paris Isaias Henriqué Samakuva, while the MPLA Congress reaffirmed President dos Santos’ leadership of party structures. José Eduardo dos Santos is now one of the longest-serving heads of state.

Republic of Angola 13 14 Republic of Angola Angola’s Economy GDP4 The GDP given below is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus taxes and minus subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. GDP growth rates are calculated on the basis of year to year changes converted to percentage. GDP per capita is calculated by dividing GDP by population.

Geographically, Sub Saharan African region is the area of the continent of Africa that lies south of the Sahara Desert. It comprises of 48 countries. In 2014, the World Bank estimated its GDP at market prices to be at $1.729 trillion with a population of 973.4 million people.

Angola is the third largest economy in Sub Saharan Africa in terms of GDP with the second highest GDP growth rate and amongst the highest GDP per capita.

Over the last decade, Angola’s GDP has grown at high rates, however it must be borne in mind that Angola’s GDP has grown from a small base hence the exceptionally high rates. Furthermore, the GDP data available for Angola is in nominal terms which is why Angola’s double digit inflation has resulted in high GDP growth rates.

4As per World Bank sources, the Angolan authorities have revised their GDP numbers from 2002-2013, and no data is yet available for 2014. The only set of data available for Angolan GDP is from the expenditure side in current US dollars.

Central bank to stabilize the nominal exchange rate led to inflation being at the historically low level of 7.3% in 2014, down from 8.8% in 2013. The average rate of inflation from 1995 to 2006 was 547% with inflation as high as 4145% in 1995 as per the World Bank.

Investment opportunities exist in the dominant hydrocarbons sector since the country could potentially generate up to 50,000 MW of electricity as the west coast of Angola contains presalt formations which are estimated to hold large quantities of hydrocarbon resources.

Substantial natural resources, such as in the minerals sectors, particularly diamonds, ensure that strong prospects continue for economic growth, foreign direct investment (FDI) and export earnings.

Since Angola is considered one of the most fertile countries in Africa, there is tremendous agricultural potential as well. As per the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations in 2011, of the total land area of about 124 million hectares (ha), it was estimated that 35 million ha was potentially arable. Of the potentially arable land, 30 million ha had been untouched and the remaining 5 to 8 million ha had been previously cleared and cultivated. Of this, only 2.5 million ha was estimated to be currently in use. However landmines remain a problem.

One of Angola’s biggest development impediments is its dependence on the oil sector, rendering it vulnerable to fluctuating commodity prices and external demand. However using the funding available from the country’s sovereign wealth fund, the Fundo Soberano de Angola (FSDEA), Angola is investing to reduce its dependency on its oil revenues and to develop the non-oil economy.

Angola has made substantial progress in economic and political terms since the end of the civil war in 2002. However, the country continues to face massive developmental challenges which include reducing the dependency on oil and diversifying the economy, rebuilding its infrastructure, improving institutional capacity, governance, public financial management systems, human development indicators and the living conditions of the population. Each of these areas however offer opportunities for companies who are willing to take the risk.

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI): The graph below shows FDI, net inflows (Balance of Payments, current US$). FDI refers to direct investment equity inflows which equals the sum of equity capital, reinvested earnings, and other capital. The negative FDI net flows figures of Angola show that Angola made more investments abroad than it received. Although FDI inflows into Angola are significant (UNCTAD reported that Angola attracted FDI inflows worth $10.5 billion in 2013) Angola also invests heavily abroad.

Angolan state oil company Sonangol has spearheaded Angolan investments abroad in recent years, notably in the energy sector in Portugal (Galp Energia), Brazil (oil exploration), Sao Tome and Principe and Cape Verde (fuel distribution and logistics).

Some of the latest investments include banking, Sonangol being the main shareholder of the largest Portuguese private bank, Millennium bcp. More recently, Angolan private groups have begun to take an interest in the construction and banking sectors abroad.

The bulk of FDI inflows that Angola has received in recent years are concentrated inoil exploration, natural gas exploration and road and rail infrastructure. China is a major source of inward FDI for Angola.

The In determining whether to grant incentives, consideration is given to the economic and social 28 impact of the investment according to the economic development strategy set by the Angolan executive. The most generous benefits are offered to companies investing outside of the petroleum industry and in geographic areas which are least-developed.

Under the local content umbrella the Angolan government expects foreign and national

36 Republic of Angola companies to prioritize local labor, as such a company investing in Angola has to exhaust all possible recruitment methods for a certain period of time before recruiting externally. For each company, there is in place a 70/30 split requirement for the employment of local staff. However, the Angolan government recognizes that there is a shortage of skilled technical and professional personnel, a reason why several companies are forced to recruit expatriate staff.

Angola’s private investment law expressly prohibits private investment in the areas of defense, internal public order, and state security. Banking activities related to the operations of the and the Treasury are forbidden as is the administration of ports and airports and in other areas where the law gives the state exclusive responsibility. However, Angolan companies do subcontract parts of or all of a project to foreign companies. Investment in the petroleum, diamond, and financial sectors is governed by sector-specific legislation.

In November 2011, the government passed a new foreign exchange law requiring oil companies operating in Angola to make all payments through local (Angola-domiciled) banks as opposed to normal procedures wherein proceeds would be sent to and kept in overseas banks. This law aims to strengthen demand for the kwanza and build up the capacity of Angola’s underdeveloped financial sector. The new law is being implemented in phases. In the first phase, which came into force in early 2012, oil companies are required to pay their taxes owed to the Angolan treasury through a local bank. In the final phase, oil companies operating in Angola will require to use local banks to make all payments, including payments to suppliers and contractors located outside of Angola.

While no formal discrimination against foreign investment exists, Angolan or other companies familiar with the bureaucratic and legal complexities of the business environment hold an advantage over newcomers. The Promotion of Angolan Private Entrepreneurs Law gives Angolan-owned companies preferential treatment in tendering for government contracts for goods, services and public works. Furthermore, only firms with a majority Angolan stake can benefit from the loan guarantees, generous terms, and subsidized interest rates of the $1.6 billion fund to support micro, small and medium-sized businesses.

Republic of Angola 39 40 Republic of Angola SECTION VI Regional Trade Trends

Republic of Angola 41 42 Republic of Angola Regional Trade Trends

Sub-Saharan Africa, of which Angola is a part, is one of the least diversified regions in the World with its participation in global production and trade largely confined to energy products and other commodities. Exports from the region are significant in the energy, mining and metal ores sectors. While Sub-Saharan Africa is largely disconnected from international trade flows, China has become an increasingly important trading partner in the region.

In 2014, Angola’s imports from Africa were 7.7% of its total imports from the World, whereas its exports to Africa were 3.4% of its exports to the World. Total bilateral trade with Africa was 4.7% of Angola’s total bilateral trade with the World. Angola has not reported its international trade figures hence mirror data7 has been used.

Southern African Development Community (SADC)8 and Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) are the two main regional trade agreements in Sub-Saharan Africa. Another important regional trade agreement is the Eastern African Community (EAC). SADC, EAC and COMESA are negotiating the implementation of a COMESA-EAC-SADC free trade area also known as the Africa Free Trade Zone or the Tripartite Free Trade Area (TFTA). Trade Alliances: Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA): In 1994, COMESA replaced the former Preferential Trade Agreement that existed since 1981 between most African countries. Covering a geographical area of 12 million sq km, it comprises of 19 members: Burundi, Comoros, Congo, Djibouti, Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Libya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Rwanda, Seychelles, Sudan, Swaziland, Uganda, Zambia, and . These countries together have a Free Trade Area and are working towards becoming a Customs Union.

8SADC countries consist of Angola, Botswana, Congo, , Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Seychelles, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe

44 Republic of Angola Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS): The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) was established in 1975. ECOWAS is a 15 member regional group with the purpose of promoting economic integration. Its member states are: , , Cape Verde, Cote d’Ivoire, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea Bissau, Liberia, , Nigeria, , Sierra Leone, and . It has a Free Trade Area under ECOWAS Trade Liberalization Scheme.

Southern African Development Community (SADC): Formed in 1992, the Southern African Development Community (SADC) is a Regional Economic Community comprising of 15 members: Angola, Botswana, Congo, Lesotho, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Seychelles, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

SADC Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) group concluded negotiations with EU in 2014. Though Angola is not part of the SADC EPA group, it has the option to join the agreement in the future. The EPA is a Free Trade Agreement negotiated between West Africa and European Union.

“Everything But Arms” (EBA): Under “Everything But Arms” (EBA), the EU offers duty-free, quota-free treatment for Least Developed Countries (LDCs) for all their exports except arms and armaments. There are currently 49 beneficiaries of this scheme, of which Angola is one of them.

African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA): The African Growth and Opportunity Act was granted by the US to 39 Sub-Saharan Africa countries in 2000. This allows preferential access to the US market through lower tariffs or no tariffs on a specified list of products that encompass approximated 7,000 products at the tariff line.

The eligibility criteria for GSP and AGOA substantially overlap, and countries must be GSP eligible in order to receive AGOA’s trade benefit; however GSP eligibility does not imply AGOA eligibility. Since 2004, Angola has been designated AGOA eligible but is not under the GSP scheme.

Diplomatic Presence in Pakistan: Angola does not have any diplomatic representation in Pakistan and vice a versa.

52 Republic of Angola Pakistan Angola Trade Potential: Potential trade method indicates the fullest possible extent of trade that can take place between two countries, given their current export and import patterns. It is calculated by subtracting Pakistan’s exports (imports) to Angola from the minimum of Pakistan exports (imports) and Angola’s imports (exports) at HS 6 digit level. Given the infeasibility of trade in petroleum oil between Pakistan and Angola, potential trade figures are calculated by excluding such products. Total potential trade between Pakistan and Angola based on 2014’s trade patterns was $3.12 billion, however it should be kept in mind that the method only calculates the potential, it does not account for distances and differences in consumer preferences in markets.

Export Potential: Pakistan can potentially export $2.9 billion worth of goods to Angola, excluding petroleum products. High potential export products to Angola include rice, sugar, wheat, medicaments, medical instruments and appliances, items of apparel, structures & parts of structures and cement. The top 20 potential exports to Angola at HS 6 level are shown in the table below:

Angola and India Ties: India and Angola have traditionally enjoyed friendly relations dating back to pre-independence era of Angola but India’s trade with and investments in Angola increased significantly after Angola’s civil war ended. Angola is the second most important source of oil for India in Africa.

The first major government-to-government initiative between the two countries started in 2005 when India extended $40 million in credit to Angola for the rehabilitation of CFM (Railway Company of Mocamedes) Railway.

Angola is the 4th largest producer of diamonds in the world while 90% of world´s rough diamonds are processed, cut and polished in India. Apart from cooperation in the oil, gas and diamond sector, India has expressed an interest in participating in national reconstruction and infrastructure programs in Angola.

India has extended different credit lines to Angola which have been utilized for the Railway Rehabilitation Project and supply of agricultural equipment and Indian tractors. Loan of $30 million for the construction of an industrial park and a loan of $15 million for setting up of a cotton ginning and spinning plant were also approved in 2010. In 2012, EXIM bank of India extended a fresh line of credit to Angola for the supply of Indian tractors, implements and related spares.

Angola China Ties: China and Angola’s economic and political ties developed during the 1980s with the signing of their first trade agreement in 1984 and the establishment of a Joint Economic and Trade Commission in 1988. In terms of volume, Angola is China’s second largest trading partner in Africa after South Africa. Since Angola is China’s largest source of oil in Africa, oil is at the crux of the relationship between the two countries.

China provides low-interest loans to Angola in return for favorable rights to develop oil and mining projects. The credit line extended by China to Angola has enabled Angola to build up its infrastructure. Angola’s oil industry has developed through direct Chinese investment in Angola’s oil sector. Chinese credit lines for infrastructure are closely linked to China’s interest in the Angolan oil sector since they are guaranteed by oil supply contracts.

The Chinese Exim Bank has been a key instrument in facilitating the expanding economic cooperation between China and Angola. Between 2004 and 2010, China’s Exim Bank extended a total of $10.5 billion in oil-backed credit lines to the Angolan Government. These loans were targeted specifically towards facilitating public investment in Angola. According to the terms of the loans, Chinese companies were largely contracted to undertake required projects and were paid directly by the China Exim Bank, which writes down the contract amount against oil sales made to the Chinese government. Generally the loans charge an interest rate of 1.5 percent over LIBOR and are repayable over 17 years, including a grace period of five years.

Republic of Angola 63

Major Industries of Angola

Before independence in 1975, Angola possessed a diversified economy with strong agricultural and manufacturing bases. The civil war caused major upheavals and the economy as a result became entirely dependent on oil, diamonds and other minerals. Angola’s involvement in the global oil value chain has been limited with only underwater umbilicals, risers and flowlines made locally. Other key activities performed at local level include systems, equipment, pipes and valves installation, construction and services and drilling services, however most activities in the oil field value chain are global. Currently, Angola produces 1.8 million barrels of crude oil a day and refines about 39 000 barrels per day against total domestic demand for 85 000 barrels each day

Oil As Africa’s second largest producer, in 2013 Angola’s oil production was 1.8 million barrels per day. It is expected to rise to 2 million barrels per day in 2016 with a new field having being discovered and developed. However, Angola’s oil industry is influenced by its top markets of China and the USA. If economic growth in China and United States slows down, it could have a significant adverse effect on Angola’s oil industry. The country exports 90% of its oil production. Angola’s estimated reserves of oil are over 13 billion barrels.

Angola is taking steps to reduce its dependence on its oil sector. The state is also urging oil companies to strengthen links to the rest of the economy, which currently employs just 1% of Angolan workers.

Diamonds Angola has extensive diamond reserves in its center and north-east regions. Diamonds are Angola’s second most important source of foreign revenue after oil. A mining law was enacted in November 2012 which cut taxes on revenues to 25% from 35%, leading to significant investment from companies including diamond producer De Beers and Sumitomo Corp, which is also developing an ammonia and urea plant. Diamonds account for 1% of Angola’s GDP which is Africa’s number two producer in quantity, after Botswana. It is also the world’s fourth largest producer of rough diamonds.

Agriculture In 2014, agriculture accounted for 9% of Angola’s GDP and 70% of its total employment. Angola has an abundance of high quality soil and good water supply which makes farming a viable industry for Angola. Most people in Angola however practice subsistence farming as their main source of livelihood.

In 2013, farm output grew 8.6% mostly through strong growth in cereal production. Angola was once the world’s fourth biggest coffee producer, but agriculture is held back by limited competition and processing facilities and a lack of co-operation among small farmers. Land mines left over from the war remain a serious threat to farmers and many areas are left unfarmed because of mines.

Republic of Angola 65 Other Sectors: Manufacturing’s annual growth which rose from 6.5% in 2012 to 8% in 2013 was driven by wood, cement and electric materials production. Angola also has sugar, beef and fish processing factories. Although tourism to Angola is growing, there is however a severe shortage of hotels and other types of accommodation, which leads to high prices for visits and stays in Luanda, the capital city.

Financial Sector Angola has seen significant growth in its financial sector with the banking sector assets growing from $3 billion in 2003 to an estimated $60 billion in 2013. However Angola’s financial sector is highly concentrated with the growth stemming almost exclusively from the banking sector. While there are over 20 commercial banks operating in Angola, the top five banks account for 78% of total assets.

Banking coverage expanded from 22% in 2010 to 51% of the country’s area in 2012 though it is still concentrated in Luanda. The percentage of adults with access to formal banking services increased from 13.5% in 2011 to 22% in 2012 as the bank network expanded and publicity campaigns had an effect.

The leading banks enjoy close connections to the country’s elite. International banks seeking to enter the Angolan market struggle to compete with the well-connected domestic banks. Foreign banks are expected to establish joint ventures with domestic partners which further strengthens the control that the country’s dominant banks possess over the economy. Currently, the majority of foreign banks operating in the country are Portuguese subsidiaries.

The expansion of Angola’s banking sector, following the end of the civil war in 2002, is inherently linked to mounting income from oil. $450 billion of oil revenues entered the Angolan economy between 2002 and 2013. As a result of the latest decline in oil prices and the subsequent slowdown in the Angolan economy, the financial sector is currently facing liquidity and foreign exchange constraints.

The IMF’s 2012 Financial Stability Assessment Program highlighted significant weaknesses, notably constraints in banking supervision, the existence of structural and operational risks, inadequate bank corporate governance, high dollarization, and liquidity shifts linked to large oil sector transactions. Non-performing loans rose sharply from 2.5% in 2012 to 6.7% in 2013.

Despite the vulnerabilities faced by the Angolan financial system, particularly due to risky domestic environment with capacity constrains in banking supervision, high dollarization and inadequate bank corporate governance, the financial sector has broadly continued to expand.

The insurance sector and capital markets remain underdeveloped. While the insurance sector was liberalized in 1999, there are only about seven companies operating in the country. Their revenues derive mostly from the oil and gas sector.

66 Republic of Angola Funding for Infrastructure Projects

Infrastructure has made a net contribution of around 1% to Angola’s improved per capita growth performance in recent years, despite unreliable power supplies and poor roads. The World Bank’s research paper Angola’s Infrastructure: A Continental Perspective estimates that poor power and road infrastructure is responsible for a 0.2% reduction in growth. Raising Angola’s infrastructure endowment to that of the region’s middle-income countries (MICs) could boost Angola’s annual growth by about 2.9%. Angola recently expanded its generation capacity and launched a multibillion-dollar road rehabilitation program aimed at easing congestion at the Port of Luanda and improving the urban water system.

Angola presently spends around $4.3 billion per year on infrastructure, with $1.3 billion lost to inefficiencies. Angola’s spending on infrastructure is heavily skewed towards improving the transport sector. Angola’s infrastructure investment is predominantly funded by domestic fiscal resources. From among overseas investment, China plays the most significant source of external finance.

Sovereign Wealth Fund: The Fundo Soberano de Angola is a sovereign wealth fund (SWF) that was officially established in 2012 with an initial endowment of $5 billion. Its purpose is to generate long term and sustainable returns to promote Angola’s social and economic development. Its portfolio is intended to be diversified across a number of industries and asset classes including stocks, bonds, foreign , real estate and infrastructure funds.

The SWF plans to allocate half of its initial $5 billion to investments in sectors including hospitality, infrastructure, agriculture and mining in the first two years. Therefore, there are plans under way to focus on three to five star hotels in sub-Saharan African capitals and other commercial centers. In addition to the hotel fund, an infrastructure fund is also being set up for projects concerning ports, airports and power plants.

In the long term, 7.5% of SWF’s endowments will be dedicated to the social development projects in areas of education, income generation, healthcare, energy and off-the-grid access to clean water.

Strategic Financial Oil Reserve Account for Infrastructure: The Strategic Financial Oil Reserve Account for Infrastructure is a fiscal stabilization fund that accrues the financial equivalent of 100,000 barrels of oil per day. The government budgets it revenues on a set figure for the oil price, but if the price of oil drops below the set price this fund can be used to offset the shortfall in the budget. However, if the price does not fall below the set price, the surplus goes into the sovereign wealth fund. This has been the case for most years.

World Bank and African Development Bank: In 2014, the World Bank offered $1 billion to Angola to rebuild infrastructure and develop its agriculture through its International Bank for Reconstruction and Development. The African Development Bank also approved a $1 billion loan for Angola to develop its electricity network.

SECTION XI Conclusion

Republic of Angola 69 70 Republic of Angola Conclusion:

Pakistan has not diversified from its traditional export markets whereas Pakistan’s neighbors, China and India have vibrant relationships with African countries. A case in point is Angola: Angola and Pakistan’s bilateral trade in 2014 was less than one percent of both the countries’ international trade, whereas India and China were among the top trading partners of Angola in 2014.

Bilateral Trade: Bilateral trade between Angola and Pakistan was $40 million while potential bilateral trade between two countries, excluding petroleum products, was estimated at $3.12 billion. Even accounting for differences in consumer tastes and the distance between the two countries, the potential trade figures are an indication of opportunities that lie therein. Top potential Pakistani exports to Angola consist of rice, sugar, wheat, medicaments, medical instruments and appliances, items of apparel, structures & parts of structures and cement with an export potential of $2.9 billion.

Pakistan can potentially import $177 million worth of goods from Angola (excluding petroleum products) which consist primarily of waste and scrap of iron, steel, aluminum, or copper, gas turbines, logs and boring and sinking machinery.

Investment: Angola is not only amongst the highest recipient of FDI on the African continent, it also has amongst the highest GDP growth rates. Investment opportunities exist in the energy generation sector, in the natural resources sector, particularly oil and diamonds, and in the agricultural sector.

However, there are high on-the ground costs involved in doing business in Angola. Though there is no formal discrimination against foreign investment, companies that are familiar with the red tape involved in setting up a business have an advantage over newcomers.
