Main Points
Angola continues to defy global inflationary pressures, with Oxford Economics confirming that the country remained largely shielded from the impact of the Middle East war during the first half of 2026. In a note released today, the consultancy highlighted that inflation slowed to 10.1% year-on-year in June, marking the 23rd consecutive month of price declines. The analysis points out that the ongoing conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran did not spill over into Angola's economy, despite risks to global supply chains. 'The slowdown in June confirms that Angola remained, to a large extent, protected from the inflationary impact of the war,' the analysts wrote. While challenges in the Strait of Hormuz circulation were noted as a potential threat, the data suggests that Angola's economic policies and distance from the conflict zone have buffered the nation. This trend offers relief to households and strengthens investor confidence in the country's economic management. Article source: jornalf8.net | Image credit: Reuters
