Economic context and timing
- The FSAP takes place as the economy shows signs of recovery, but lingering concerns remain over liquidity pressures, given the fragile fiscal position and looming sizable external debt service.
- Angola’s oil-dependent economy recovered in 2024; yet sovereign and private financing conditions remained tight.
Key findings on the financial sector
- The bank-dominated financial sector is small and appears adequately capitalized on average.
- Certain vulnerabilities persist:
- High non-performing loans.
- A substantial sovereign-bank nexus.
- Exposure to foreign exchange risks.
- Exposure to climate-related financial risks.
Liquidity and funding profile
- Liquidity indicators are high.
- The bulk of banks’ funding comes from residents’ deposits.
