{{Cquote|In 2010 the McKinsey Global Institute (MGI) described the potential and progress of African economies as “lions on the move”. Today, despite the collapse of global commodity prices and political shocks that have slowed growth in North Africa, Africa’s economic lions are still moving forward.
Overall, the continent achieved average real annual GDP growth of 5.4% between 2000 and 2010, adding $78 billion annually to GDP (in 2015 prices).<ref>[https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2016/05/what-s-the-future-of-economic-growth-in-africa/ 3 reasons things are looking up for African economies]</ref>}}
