About this listen
Nowhere in the world has the unevenness of the economic recovery been more pronounced and acute than across countries in the Middle East and North Africa.
Some Mena countries already struggling with economic problems before the pandemic. Others, including Egypt and GCC countries, were in the midst of huge structural reforms when the pandemic hit.
In a region already defined by many imbalances and economic contrasts, what does the post-Covid recovery look like?
Guests:
Jihad Azour, director of the Middle East and Central Asia department at the International Monetary Fund
Alia Moubayed, emerging markets economist
Narrated by: Mustafa Alrawi, The National’s assistant editor-in-chief
