Ivory Coast has secured more than $80 billion in funding commitments during a major donors roundtable held in Abidjan on July 8 and 9 to accelerate its national economic development.
The final pledge total significantly exceeded the initial targets set by the government, reinforcing the country's status as one of the fastest-growing economies in West Africa.
This major influx of capital will support the ongoing economic expansion of the country, which has sustained an average annual growth rate of 6.5 percent since recovering from its post-election crisis in 2011.
The national development strategy relies heavily on large-scale infrastructure investments and continuous reforms aimed at making the domestic business environment highly attractive to international capital.
