### Coverage and Timing; Country Groupings
- Data and projections are IMF staff estimates as of March 30, 2018, consistent with the April 2018 World Economic Outlook (WEO).
- Coverage: 45 sub-Saharan African countries followed by the IMF’s African Department.
- Country groupings (non-overlapping):
  - Oil exporters: net oil exports make up 30 percent or more of total exports.
  - Other resource-intensive countries: nonrenewable natural resources represent 25 percent or more of total exports.
  - Non-resource-intensive countries: not classified as either oil exporters or other resource-intensive countries.
- Overlapping groups by income/CPIA:
  - Middle-income countries: per capita gross national income in 2014–16 of more than US$1,005.00 (World Bank, Atlas method).
  - Low-income countries: average per capita gross national income in 2014–16 equal to or lower than US$1,005.00 (World Bank, Atlas method).
  - Countries in fragile situations: average CPIA scores of 3.2 or less in 2014–16 and/or had the presence of a peace-keeping or peace-building mission within the last three years.

### Methods of Aggregation and Sources
- Aggregation methods by table group:
  - Tables SA1–SA3, SA6–SA7, SA13, SA15–SA16, and SA22–SA23: arithmetic average of country data weighted by GDP (PPP) share of group GDP. PPP weights from World Economic Outlook database.
  - Tables SA8–SA12, SA17–SA21, and SA24–SA26: arithmetic average weighted by GDP in US dollars at market exchange rates.
  - Tables SA4–SA5 and SA14: geometric average weighted by GDP (PPP).
  - Tables SA27–SA28: unweighted arithmetic average.
- Principal sources: IMF Common Surveillance database; IMF World Economic Outlook database, April 2018; IMF Information Notice System; IMF International Financial Statistics.
- Recurrent table notes: “...” denotes data not available; fiscal year data indicated where applicable; Zimbabwe dollar ceased circulating early 2009 and some data are IMF staff estimates in US dollars.

*Regional Economic Outlook: Sub‑Saharan Africa — Statistical Appendix (IMF staff estimates as of March 30, 2018).*

### Section 1

### stats - Section 1

### Coverage and Timing
- Data and projections presented are IMF staff estimates as of March 30, 2018, consistent with the projections underlying the April 2018 World Economic Outlook (WEO).
- The data and projections cover 45 sub-Saharan African countries followed by the IMF’s African Department.

### Country Groupings and Classification Criteria
- Countries are aggregated into three non-overlapping groups:
  - Oil exporters: net oil exports make up 30 percent or more of total exports.
  - Other resource-intensive countries: nonrenewable natural resources represent 25 percent or more of total exports.
  - Non-resource-intensive countries: not classified as either oil exporters or other resource-intensive countries.
- Countries are also aggregated into four overlapping groups based on per capita gross national income and CPIA scores:
  - Middle-income countries: per capita gross national income in the years 2014–16 of more than US$1,005.00 (World Bank, using the Atlas method).
  - Low-income countries: average per capita gross national income in the years 2014–16 equal to or lower than US$1,005.00 (World Bank, Atlas method).
  - Countries in fragile situations: average CPIA scores of 3.2 or less in the years 2014–16 and/or had the presence of a peace-keeping or peace-building mission within the last three years.

### Regional Cooperation Groupings (membership lists shown on page 90 of the source)
- Major regional cooperation bodies referenced include:
  - CFA franc zone (WAEMU and CEMAC)
  - Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA)
  - East Africa Community (EAC-5) — EAC-5 aggregates include Rwanda and Burundi, which joined the group only in 2007.
  - Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS)
  - Southern African Development Community (SADC)
  - Southern Africa Customs Union (SACU)

### Methods of Aggregation
- Tables SA1–SA3, SA6–SA7, SA13, SA15–SA16, and SA22–SA23:
  - Country group composites are calculated as the arithmetic average of data for individual countries, weighted by GDP valued at purchasing power parity as a share of total group GDP.
  - Source of purchasing power parity weights: World Economic Outlook database.
- Tables SA8–SA12, SA17–SA21, and SA24–SA26:
  - Country group composites are calculated as the arithmetic average of data for individual countries, weighted by GDP in US dollars at market exchange rates as a share of total group GDP.
- Tables SA4–SA5 and SA14:
  - Country group composites are calculated as the geometric average of data for individual countries, weighted by GDP valued at purchasing power parity as a share of total group GDP.
  - Source of purchasing power parity weights: World Economic Outlook database.
- Tables SA27–SA28:
  - Country group composites are calculated as the unweighted arithmetic average of data for individual countries.

### Statistical Notes and Data Sources
- Data definitions follow established international statistical methodologies to the extent possible; however, data limitations can limit comparability across countries.
- List of principal sources and notes (see page 91 of the source for full listings), including:
  - IMF, Common Surveillance database; IMF, World Economic Outlook database, April 2018.
  - IMF, Information Notice System.
  - IMF, International Financial Statistics.
- Recurrent notes in tables:
  - “...” denotes data not available.
  - Fiscal year data are indicated where applicable.
  - Several tables note that the Zimbabwe dollar ceased circulating in early 2009 and that data are based on IMF staff estimates of price and exchange rate developments in US dollars; staff estimates of US dollar values may differ from authorities’ estimates.
