Income and Expenditure in Middle East and Africa

Fast economic development in the Middle East and Africa region is unlocking high levels of unmet potential and resulting in diminishing regional disparities and rapid growth in consumer incomes. Nevertheless, income inequality is set to increase in most of the countries, and the lowest-income class is set to remain the fastest-growing income segment. The short-term outlook is also clouded by rising energy and food prices, inducing malnutrition among the most vulnerable populations.
