Nigeria is the biggest economy in Sub Saharan Africa and is primarily reliant on oil for foreign currency profits and government income. Following the global financial crisis of 2008–09, the banking industry was substantially recapitalized and regulatory oversight was strengthened. Nigeria's economic development has been fueled by agriculture, telecoms, and services since then. Economic diversification and rapid expansion have not resulted in a major reduction in poverty levels; over 62% of Nigeria's over 180 million people continue to live in abject poverty. Despite its strong fundamentals, oil-rich Nigeria has been hampered by an insufficient power supply, a lack of infrastructure, delays in legislative reforms, an inefficient property registration system, restrictive trade policies, an inconsistent regulatory environment, a slow and ineffective judicial system, unreliable dispute resolution mechanisms, insecurity, and widespread corruption. New investment in oil and natural gas has been constrained by regulatory limits and security concerns, and Nigeria's oil output has been declining year since 2012, with the exception of a minor uptick in 2017.
