What happened
Professor Paul Gadama urged the Malawi government to adopt a more coordinated approach across fiscal, monetary, regulatory, and trade policies to address the country’s deepening economic challenges. He noted that sharper focus on these instruments could help address structural issues, such as persistent foreign exchange shortages and weak export performance.
