*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Verisk Maplecroft believes that President Ali Bongo is fairly well-placed to retain power, despite his government being shaken by an unprecedented wave of violent protests in the aftermath of highly controversial elections in August. For the hydrocarbon sector, new interest in the sector has been muted due to tightening fiscal terms, among other recent changes. Current political tensions risk exacerbating these conditions.
