The health expenditure in Angola as a percentage of GDP has been on a steady decline from 2013, where it stood at 4.26%, to 2023, reaching 3.02%. The year-on-year variations highlight a consistent negative trend, particularly from 2014 onwards. In the most recent years, the decline has averaged approximately 1.61% per year for the last five years (2019-2023), resulting in a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) that underscores the decreasing expenditure. Forecast through 2028 indicates this trend will continue, with a forecasted five-year CAGR of -1.41%.
Future trends to watch for include potential policy shifts or economic changes that could alter the trajectory of health expenditure. Monitoring global health funding patterns, and Angola’s economic performance, will be critical in anticipating shifts in this trend.
