Summary:

Since 2012, Côte d’Ivoire has succeeded in maintaining a virtuous dynamic of strong economic growth, driven by the revival of infrastructure investment, a sustainable fiscal policy and renewed confidence of international donors, lenders and markets. Côte d’Ivoire intends to sustain this momentum by leveraging its National Development Plan (PND) for the 2016-2020 period, which aims to achieve the economic emergence of the country by 2020, thanks to close to CFAF 30,000 billion in public and private investment (i.e., 140 percent of 2016 GDP). This program is based on an ambitious macro-fiscal framework, both in terms of growth targets and deficit reduction.
