Mauritius is planning to invest 30 million Dollars to stabilize the economy and bring forward its reform process. The funds are guaranteed by an easy-term loan granted by the European Union, which has thus decided to reward “the virtuous path taken by the local Government”. Indeed, the archipelago has among the most stable and sound economies and living standards of the continent, a result that is expected to also be confirmed in the near future, with the Gross Domestic Product projected to grow by 4.5% in 2010, after the 3.1% growth rate recorded last year.
