The Bank of Tanzania (BoT) monthly economic review for December shows that the prices of crude oil and related products rose in anticipation of OPEC extending production cuts.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, gold price declined slightly on account of investors\u2019 optimism, following announcements of effective vaccines for Covid-19, while prices of tea and cloves fell in response to low demand. In Tanzania, the value of gold, which accounted for 55.3 per cent of the total non-traditional exports during the reference period, fetched $2,855.6 million.<\/p>\n

Annually, most prices declined except for Arabica coffee, gold and tea from Mombasa auction. Subdued prices for oil and some agricultural products are attributed to the prevailing Covid-19 pandemic, which resulted in contraction in demand.<\/p>\n

In Tanzania, the value of oil imports, which accounted for 17.1 per cent of goods import declined by 28.8 per cent to $1,310.6 million owing to decrease in both price and volume.<\/p>\n

This contributed greatly to the decrease of imports bill for goods and services to $8,966.4 million in the year ending November last year from $10,516.9 million in the corresponding period in 2019.<\/p>\n

The price of gold increased significantly due to low interest rate environment and uncertainty in financial markets almost throughout the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
