While Ethiopia has been experiencing strong growth since the early 2000s, the IMF's latest review of the country's economy says low commodity prices and a drought have put growth levels well below 10 percent for the first time in a decade. In this podcast, we speak with Julio Escolano, IMF Mission Chief for Ethiopia, who oversaw the writing of the report.
