AGP Executive Report
Last update: 12 hours agoCopper: Ivanhoe Mines cut its 2027 Kamoa-Kakula production outlook by 19% to 300,000–350,000 tonnes as recovery from flooding takes longer than expected. The setback adds investment risk and could leave global markets with less copper. Regional Risk: The US sanctioned Rwanda’s defence ministry and a security-linked lender over alleged support for M23, including claims of gold transport from rebel-held Congolese mining areas—keeping pressure on regional trade and investment. Public Finance: The government proposed a record $24.8 billion budget for 2027, up 12% from the amended 2026 plan, with domestic resources expected to fund 82% of revenue. Delivery will depend on revenue collection and spending discipline. Aviation: Air Congo has added a leased 292-seat Boeing 787-9 to its fleet, expanding passenger capacity and its plans for international services.
