In 2035, on the basis that there are no new policy implementations in international trade in Africa (baseline scenario), intracontinental exports from Africa are expected to cover 15 percent of the total exports. Senegal, with 36 percent of the exports in 2020, would account for the highest share of the exports in 2035, at 41 percent, compared to the other African countries. Also, under African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) initiatives, intra-AfCFTA exports are forecast to remain highest in Senegal, with 50 percent of its total exports, followed by Kenya with 43 percent.
In May 2019, the AfCFTA agreement officially entered into force after 22 African countries had ratified it. The agreement sought to boost inter-regional trade.
