The Comoros economy is showing signs of recovery, surpassing pre-COVID-19 levels. Growth has risen from 3% in 2023 to 3.4% in 2024, driven by an increase in household consumption. This dynamic is due in particular to a 5.4% increase in remittances and the good performance of the services sector. Average annual inflation has slowed from 8.5% to 5.0% in 2024, thanks to the stabilization of global commodity prices and lower inflation in the eurozone. By 2027, growth could reach 4%, supported by consumption and planned investments. However, poverty is expected to fall only slightly, due to modest GDP growth, high inequality and limited social protection. In 2024, the poverty rate is estimated at 38.1% (based on the lower-middle-income poverty line of $3.65 per day) and should fall slightly to 37.2% in 2025.

In Comoros, the blue economy can pave the way for more inclusive and sustainable growth
