Côte d’Ivoire has experienced a weak turnout in its latest treasury bills and bonds issuance on the UMOA financial market. The operation, held on October 28, 2025, raised far less than the targeted amount.
According to reports, investor participation was lower than expected despite the government’s attractive yields. Analysts link the underperformance to growing political uncertainty following the recent presidential election. The weak subscription may also reflect caution among regional investors amid economic tightening. Côte d’Ivoire’s treasury regularly uses such auctions to finance public spending and manage debt.
Authorities are now reviewing strategies to boost confidence in future issuances. The government remains optimistic about regaining investor trust as stability improves.
