Summary: | The Nigerian Economic Report (NER) is
a regular publication of the World Bank. Each edition of the
NER includes a macroeconomic overview and gives special
attention to an additional topic of high policy relevance.
In addition to macroeconomic performance, this edition of
the NER focuses on recent releases of new statistical
information. First, newly re-based Gross Domestic Product
figures indicate a larger, more diversified, and complex
economy in Nigeria than was hitherto reported, with
significant contributions to growth coming from
manufacturing and some services not captured in previous
data. Second, Chapter 2 provides an analysis of recent NBS
GHS household survey data, which supports the hypothesis
that the larger NBS HNLSS survey of 2009/2010 may have
underestimated consumption. |
