Economic Intelligence In Algeria

Abstract

This study examines the current state of Economic Intelligence (EI) in Algeria, focusing on its reality and challenges through a comprehensive SWOT analysis. The research reveals that Algeria possesses significant strengths, including natural resource wealth and government commitment to economic reforms, which provide a foundation for developing robust EI practices. However, the country faces notable challenges such as limited data availability, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and a shortage of skilled professionals in the field. The study identifies opportunities for enhancing EI capabilities through investment in technology, regional cooperation, and economic diversification. Threats to effective EI implementation include political instability, global economic fluctuations, and cybersecurity risks. The findings highlight the importance of strategic planning in leveraging Algeria's strengths and opportunities while addressing weaknesses and mitigating threats to develop a comprehensive EI framework that supports sustainable economic development and diversification.
