Botswana’s business confidence shows renewed strength

A recent survey by the Bank of Botswana (BoB) reveals a resurgence of optimism among Botswana-based enterprises, reversing the decline experienced in the final quarter of 2025.

The findings indicate that businesses operating within Botswana anticipate a more conducive trading environment throughout 2026 compared to the challenges faced in late 2025.
