Points clés à retenir
The document further highlights that this robust economic trajectory will be supported by strong performances in the secondary sector (+10.3%), the tertiary sector (+5.1%), and the primary sector (+5.2%). Francophone Africa is home to some of the fastest-growing economies on the continent. Economies in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) averaged 6% GDP growth between 2013-2018 and above 5% each year since - except in 2020 (COVID-19). These economies are Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Niger, Senegal, and Togo. In 2024, four feature among the world’s ten fastest-growing economies projected by the IMF. The region also has a more conducive policy environment offering companies a relatively easy regional expansion route due to shared culture, language, regulations, and currency. With this, francophone West Africa offers some of the best investment prospects on the continent.
