It frames the central challenge as creating private sector jobs at scale amid past slowdown driven by insufficient private investment and heavy reliance on state-led public investment. The CPF emphasizes macroeconomic reforms plus business-enabling actions across foreign exchange predictability, competition, trade and logistics, energy reliability, finance, and trust in regulation, while accounting for conflict and climate pressures.","Public Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nCountry Partnership Framework  \nDocument of  \nThe World Bank Group  \nFOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY  \nReport No. CPF0000018  \nINTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION  \nAND INTERNATIONAL FINANCE CORPORATION  \nAND MULTILATERAL INVESTMENT GUARANTEE AGENCY  \nCOUNTRY PARTNERSHIP FRAMEWORK  \nFOR  \nTHE FEDERAL DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF ETHIOPIA  \nFOR THE PERIOD FY27-FY36  \n[P501383]  \nEthiopia, Eritrea, South Sudan and Sudan Country Management Unit  \nEastern and Southern Africa Region, The World Bank  \nEthiopia, Malawi & Zambia  \nAfrica Regional Vice-Presidency, The International Finance Corporation  \nThe Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency  \nThis document has a restricted distribution and may be used by recipients only in the performance of their official duties.

As the continent’s second most populous country and a major economy in the Horn of Africa, its transition toward a more competitive, privateinvestment-led growth model will shape job creation, trade, connectivity, and stability far beyond its borders. The opportunities created by the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) reinforce that role. Strong air connectivity across Africa, substantial renewable energy potential, expanding transmission networks, and a strategic position in regional logistics give Ethiopia the foundations to become a stronger platform for commerce and investment if reforms enable firms to compete and grow.  \nThis World Bank Group (WBG) Country Partnership Framework (CPF) supports Ethiopia’s transition toward private sector-led growth that expands productive employment and builds resilience. Over the past two decades, Ethiopia has been one of Africa’s fastest-growing economies, with per capita gross domestic product (GDP) growth averaging nearly 6.2 percent between 2004 and 2024. Resilient growth, despite multiple domestic and global shocks, reduced poverty and supported large expansions in infrastructure and basic services, but it relied heavily on state-led public investment and did not generate sufficient private investment and productive employment, leading to a slowdown in growth since 2019 as public finances declined and private investment could not substitute. Recent shocks highlighted the need to rebalance the sources of growth toward a more dynamic and resilient private sector.  \nThis CPF focuses on Ethiopia’s central challenge: creating private sector jobs at scale. Anchored in Ethiopia’s development vision, the CPF supports the country’s aspirations for inclusive, private sectorled growth and is closely aligned with the Home-Grown Economic Reform Agenda (HGER 2.0) and the Ten-Year Development Plan (2021–2030) . About two million people enter the labor market each year, but formal employment growth is too weak to absorb them. With stronger private investment, firm entry, and firm expansion, Ethiopia can accelerate poverty reduction, absorb a fast-growing workforce, reduce fragility, and make reforms deliver for households through higher incomes and better living standards. Aten-year framework is appropriate given the scale of this challenge and ambition of Ethiopia’s transition goals. It will allow for the right sequencing of investments, policies, and institutional reforms.  \nThe country is at a turning point. The renewed macroeconomic reforms launched in July 2024 mark a shift toward a more market-oriented framework.
