Abiy Ahmed (Prosperity Party) has been Prime Minister of Ethiopia since 2 Apr 2018. In the time since Abiy Ahmed took office, April 2018, real GDP has jumped 7.0% a year. Among the 63 national leaders with a year or more of figures, Ethiopia ranks 2nd on GDP growth and 37th of 39 on the rise in political stability. For comparison, real GDP jumped 9.5% a year under Hailemariam Desalegn, 2012 to 2018. On the World Bank's political stability Ethiopia has moved −6.0 points since day zero, to 33.1 of 100 in 2025. The 2021 survey left out Tigray, at war, and counts far fewer people as employed than the 2013 round did: not like for like. The National Bank of Ethiopia let the birr float on 29 July 2024.
