IMPACT OF THE GLOBAL CRISIS (Mid 2009)
In 2009, GDP growth is expected to fall, as the global financial and economic crisis starts to adversely affect remittances, aid receipts
and inflows of foreign capital. Mali’s government, heavily dependent on aid inflows to support the budget, could face difficulties in
financing its budget deficit. Moreover Economic growth will slow down in 2009, largely because of a decline in export demand and low
cotton prices.
