Market functionality remains uneven in flood-affected areas, with some markets still closed.

Key developments

A recent assessment indicates that markets in flood-affected areas are trading, but their recovery is inconsistent. Out of 117 traders surveyed, 64 reported fully operational markets, while 43 noted partial operations and 10 markets remained closed.

Key concerns

The supply capacity of markets in flood-affected regions is fragile, posing a risk to sustained recovery. The uneven market functionality suggests ongoing challenges for economic stability in these areas.

Humanitarian impact

The partial or complete closure of markets in some areas likely affects access to essential goods and services for the population. The fragility of supply capacity could lead to price volatility or shortages.

Information gaps

The excerpts do not cover the specific needs of the 13,969 internally displaced persons or the 99 refugees.
