Privatisation is likely to enter the 2020 legislative elections, Global Insight reports

Privatisation is likely to enter the 2020 legislative elections, Global Insight reports. “The formerly dominant The Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF) member, the Tigrayan People's Liberation Front, will probably exit the coalition and seek to delay the privatisation of state-owned entities. (…) The planned privatisation of state-owned entities (SOEs) will probably advance slowly, as the government audits the contracting arrangements and off-balance sheet liabilities of SOEs to improve foreign investor interest and the chance of retaining controlling stakes.” [IHS Global Insight Limited, 6 March 2019]
