Algeria
|
Economy of Algeria Algeria’s economy is based mainly on oil and gas, it has the eighth-largest reserves of natural gas in the world and is the fourth-largest gas exporter; it ranks 18th in oil reserves. The hydrocarbon sector represents about 40–45 percent of total GDP and about two-thirds of budget revenues. Oil and gas resources account for 98 percent of the country’s exports and 70 percent of tax revenues. The chief challenges that Algeria faces in the short and medium terms are the need to diversify the economy, strengthen political and economic reform, improve the business climate, reduce regional inequalities and create jobs. Structural reform within the economy, such as development of the banking sector and the construction of infrastructure, moves ahead slowly. According to the World Bank indicator for ease of doing business in 2015, Algeria is ranked 154 out of 183 economies.
