Mozambique: Foreign Direct Investment Falls By 21 Percent

Maputo — The volume of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Mozambique fell by 21 percent in the first quarter, which corresponds to 1.2 billion US dollars. According to a document on the Balance of Payments published by the Bank of Mozambique, FDI is heavily concentrated in the gas and mining industries. Over the same period of last year, FDI reached 1.6 billion dollars. Despite the decline, the structure of foreign investment remained largely unchanged, continuing to be dominated by megaprojects associated with natural resources. "Extractive industries, including coal, oil, natural gas and minerals, attracted 1.209 billion dollars in the first quarter, equivalent to around 94 percent of all FDI received by the country from January to March 2026", reads the document. The weight of the extractive industry maintains the trend observed in 2025, when FDI grew 60.2 percent to a record 5.693 billion dollars for the full year, driven mainly by natural gas projects in the Rovuma Basin, in Cabo Delgado.
