In many African countries, the services sector constitutes the largest segment of the economy, and during the period 2000–2012, the sector contributed an increasing share to gross domestic product (GDP), trade and employment. The development of efficient and competitive services economies and trade, especially in infrastructure services such as telecommunications, transport, energy and finance, could significantly improve the economic outlook in Africa.
