The State of Niger raised on Thursday, January 30, 2025 on the financial market of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA) the sum of 11 billion FCFA following its issuance of a 364-day treasury bond auction (BAT).

This mobilization on the UEMOA public securities market thus exceeds the initial target of 10 billion set by the authorities by 10%. The success of this operation is marked by interest from regional investors, with offers totaling 11.6 billion CFA francs. This high demand made it possible to reach a coverage rate of 116% compared to the initial objective.

This result demonstrates the continued confidence of investors in the ability of the Nigerian State to honor its financial commitments. Côte d'Ivoire was the main contributor with a participation of 7 billion CFA francs, followed by Senegalese investors who contributed 3.85 billion CFA francs. Burkina Faso also took part in the operation with a contribution of 150 million CFA francs
