SADC SELECTED ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL INDICATORS, 2016
1. INTRODUCTION
This report is an attempt to provide data series and a brief
trend analysis of the major socio-economic characteristics
of SADC region for the Year 2016 based on Selected
Economic and Social Indicators for the period 2007 to
2016. Data was primarily submitted and updated by
National Statistical Offices (NSOs) of SADC Member
States and endorsed during the annual statutory meeting
of SADC Statistics Committee held from 12-14 July 2017
in Johannesburg, South Africa. The core list of selected
indicators for the region is presented in the attached tables
1 to 27 and corresponds to data submission as at end of
July 2017. The following sections present an analysis of
trends of Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Trade and
Demographic indicators.
2. GDP AND MANUFACTURING
SADC region registered an estimated average growth rate
of 1.4% in 2016 compared to 2.3% in 2015 as illustrated
in Figure 1. The Manufacturing sector, identified as the
prioritized key engine of growth to drive the
industrialization process in SADC for the coming
decades, grew by 2.6% in 2016 compared to 1.5% in
2015. The region`s growth has been increasing at a
decreasing rate since post global crisis in 2009 while the
manufacturing sector exhibited decent growth in 2016.
At country-specific level (Table 3), Tanzania registered
highest overall economic growth rate at 7.0% among the
Member States followed by Botswana at 4.3 % in 2016.
The rest of the Member States registered growth rates
ranging between 0% and 3.8% except for Swaziland
which recorded a decline of 0.6% during the same period.
With regard to the Manufacturing sector, significant
growth rates were recorded by Angola (6.9%), DRC
(8.6%) and Tanzania (7.8%) among the Member States in
2016. Only Seychelles registered a decline in the
manufacturing sector of 1.3% during the same year.
The share of manufacturing sector to overall GDP in 2016
stood at 11.1%. Indeed, the share of the Manufacturing
sector to overall GDP in SADC region has steadily been
declining since 2007 from 13.6% to reach its lowest point to
10.6% in 2013. The Post 2013 period has shown a resilience
of the sector for gradual increase in its share to the GDP
increasing to about 11.1% in 2016.
Figure 3 shows trend of nominal GDP per capita of SADC
region for the period 2007-2016. GDP per capita stood at
$1834 in 2016 representing a significant nominal decrease
of 7.2% compared to $1976 in 2015. Since 2007, this
variable, as an income measure of poverty, increased from
$1847 to reach its highest level of $2440 in 2011. Beyond
2011, it has gradually decreased due to sharp depreciation
of national currencies of most SADC Member States
against international convertible currencies. At country
level, Table 4 below shows Seychelles has the highest
GDP per capita (US$ 15 144) estimate whilst Malawi has
the lowest at US$ 317 in 2016.

3. TRADE
Promotion of trade liberalization is a critical factor
towards attainment of set goals for regional economic
integration within the SADC region. In 2016, SADC
Exports of Goods (Extra-SADC) stood at about $ 114
billion whilst Imports stood at $ 123 billion resulting in a
trade deficit of $ 9 billion. Figure 4 illustrates trend in
SADC Trade Balance for the period 2007-2016.
SADC region registered positive trade balance during
2007-2013 exception in 2009 when the region recorded a
deficit mainly on account of the effects of the global
financial crisis during that year. Post 2013, the region`s
trade with rest of the world went into deficit to reach its
lowest level of $ 20 billion in 2015. The deficit improved
to $ 9 billion in 2016 mainly due to reduced imports from
rest of the world by the majority of SADC Member States
(Table 17). The largest exporter and importer of goods for
the region remains South Africa followed by Angola and
DRC (Table 17-18).
Merchandise trade among SADC Member States has
steadily been on the increase since 2007 as depicted in Fig
5 above. Intra-SADC Exports as a percentage of Total
Exports of Goods increased from 15.2% in 2007 to reach
24.9% in 2016 whilst that of Imports increased from
18.2% to 21.2% during the same period.
4. DEMOGRAPHY
The estimated population of the SADC region increased
from 318.9 million in 2015 to 327.2 million in 2016
representing a 2.6% annual population growth rate. The
largest population share in the region in 2016 was in DRC
(26.6%) followed by South Africa (17.1%) and Tanzania
(15.3%). Figure 6 shows the share of population across
SADC Member States for 2016.
Life Expectancy at birth, as a measurement for quantity of
life, is an indicator with high correlation to the health status
of a population which invariably has bearings for
contributing to the processes of growth and productivity in
a country.
SADC region has been registering steady increase in life
expectancy over the past decade that could be attributed
to improved nutrition, sanitation and medical
interventions, among others. Available data indicate that
the average life expectancy of the region has increased
from 51.8 years in 2007 to reach 60.1 years in 2016. See
Figure 7 for details.
