Total Investment: Equatorial Guinea

Analysis# Equatorial Guinea Total Investment Equatorial Guinea's total investment stands at 28.897% of GDP in 2026, reflecting a significant contraction from its all-time peak of 35.037% in 2004. The country has experienced a cumulative decline of 17.5% over the past two decades, retreating from one of its strongest investment positions to levels last seen in 2005. Current investment intensity remains moderately elevated but well below the early 2000s boom period. A sharp drop occurred between 2004 and 2005, when investment fell from the peak to 28.897%—a decline that established the floor for subsequent years. Remarkably, investment levels have remained completely flat since 2017, holding steady at 28.897% across the entire nine-year period through 2026. This sustained plateau suggests a stabilization in investment patterns, though projections indicate no recovery toward the historical highs of two decades past.
