For several years, the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo has been facing a series of security crises. These crises have led to significant consequences, including humanitarian emergencies, loss of life, large-scale population displacement, economic disruption, and more.

In January 2025, the situation worsened with the seizure of Goma and protests in Kinshasa that resulted in damage to embassies and businesses. This survey aims to gather the perceptions of both national and foreign economic operators regarding the impact of the security situation in the East on their businesses, their expectations, and the outlook for the national economy.

As an economic player in the Democratic Republic of Congo, your input is crucial to understanding how the private sector views the situation in the East.
