Model it · Nigeria’s Economic Outlook Database · Q4 2026

Explore the series, definitions, comparisons and calculations behind the report’s conclusions.

The Database lets users explore the evidence behind Nigeria’s places, people, products and portfolio, comparing available indicators across states, sectors, companies and citizens.

Why Nigeria and CountryWatch

Places · People · Products · Portfolio

CountryWatch follows Nigeria through four connected pillars: places, people, products and portfolio. It examines what the country has, who can put those strengths to work, what it produces and what its assets could become worth when productively deployed.

Across 36 states and the FCT, CountryWatch examines 46 sectors within four clusters—Industrial, Infrastructure, Commercial and Human Capital—and follows the implications for companies and citizens. Goods, ideas, talent and money connect this national picture to the world.

Five analytical themes

Reforms, Outcomes, Impact, Shocks and Outlook

Reforms

When does a discount change the meaning of reform? Explore pricing, entry, supply, implementation and support funding.

Outcomes

Are stronger buffers translating into better conditions? Explore reserves, price pressures, rates, capital gains and real growth within documented coverage.

Impact

Who is gaining and who is catching up? Compare state fiscal capacity, sector rankings, real cluster momentum, company income and citizen inflation.

Shocks

How do global developments reach Nigeria? Examine oil and equities, production versus valuations, coverage gaps and transmission channels.

Outlook

What would move the baseline? Compare stated assumptions, available forecasts and observations, opportunities and vulnerabilities.

The main Outcomes tables contain 8 liquidity, 24 price-stability and 7 output-growth series labels, including alternative bases and overlapping measures. State comparisons cover 7 fiscal metric families; companies cover net output and market capitalisation; citizen data cover headline and food inflation. Outlook forecast tracking contains 19 indicator labels. Each series states its own comparison period.

Findings worth exploring

  • Infrastructure leads real cluster growth at 7.46%, while Human Capital leads acceleration at +0.69 percentage points.
  • State capacity has four foundations: Places, People, Products and Portfolio.
  • Corporate income and market valuation tell different stories.
  • Headline inflation easing does not by itself establish improved purchasing power.

What the evidence can establish

Series labels may include alternative bases and overlapping measures. Welfare indicators are incomplete, and nominal, real and dollar capital gains do not yet have matching full histories.
