Abstract

The World Bank’s report on Somalia Economic Update/Special Focus on Intergovernmental Relations concludes that although Somalis face a daunting and long term development challenge to overcome two decades of conflict and fragility, with a commitment of a new government, substantial progress is being made to support a potentially vibrant private sector economy, improve human and economic development outcomes, and prioritize the establishment of intergovernmental (central and member government) institutions for effective macro-fiscal management (World Bank, 2015).
