In this edition of Business Africa, we explore the lifting of the diamond embargo in the Central African Republic, marking a pivotal moment for the country’s economy and development.

Finally, we analyze the rise of the circular economy in Ghana, where the textile industry faces environmental challenges while exploring sustainable solutions to reduce waste and create local economic opportunities.
CAR: Diamonds Without Embargo, an Economic Turning Point
The Central African Republic is finally able to export its diamonds after 11 years of embargo, a major decision that could revive its economy. This reopening comes after a dramatic drop in diamond export revenues, which have fallen by more than 80% since the embargo.

In an interview with us, Dr. Jean Marie Biada, an expert economist in public finance, highlights these challenges. According to him, “Lifting this embargo represents a lifeline for the Central African authorities, offering them the opportunity to generate substantial revenues and support the country’s development.”
