Niger, Nigeria - Nov 10

The IMF has reclassified Nigeria and Niger from "fragile" to now "resilient" African nations as they have managed to “put in place political systems that are more in service to the general interest, reinforcing their institutions and favoring investment.” With the help of these nations, sub-Saharan Africa is the second fastest growing region in the world behind Southeast Asia. Currently, the biggest obstacle to this growth is the negative effect of the Ebola outbreak on investor confidence. Source: All Africa
