| الملخص: | The COVID-19 pandemic has sharply deteriorated Namibia's short-term macroeconomic outlook, giving rise to urgent balance of payments (BOP) and fiscal financing needs.

Containment measures have negatively impacted domestic consumption and economic activity, weighing on tax revenues collection.

The economy is expected to have sharply contracted by 7.2 percent in 2020, and the recovery is set to remain subdued in 2021. |
