Economic growth in the least developed countries (LDCs) has slowed since 2012, when impressive performance by fuel-exporting countries took the growth rate of their real gross domestic product (GDP) to a post-financial crisis peak of 7.2 per cent. In 2014, less favourable external conditions (compounded by the impact of the Ebola outbreak in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone) contributed to a further deterioration in their economic performance.
