Senegal Frontière

Aperçu économique et sectoriel

Senegal is a lower-middle-income economy in West Africa with a nominal GDP of approximately 32.2 billion USD in 2024, supported by services, agriculture, fishing, phosphate mining, construction, and a nascent but rapidly growing oil and gas sector. The Sangomar offshore oil field began commercial production in June 2024, providing a significant new export revenue stream and accelerating real GDP growth to an estimated 6.9 percent in 2024. The country uses the West African CFA franc and is a member of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU). Dakar serves as a major regional commercial, financial, and transportation hub for West Africa. Inflation was low at 0.8 percent in 2024, helped by price subsidies and easing global commodity prices.

Accès aux courtiers locaux

Senegalese equities trade on the BRVM regional exchange in Abidjan. Access for international retail investors is limited; dedicated BRVM-member brokerage firms (Sociétés de Gestion et d'Intermédiation, or SGIs) licensed by the Conseil Régional de l'Épargne Publique et des Marchés Financiers (CREPMF) are the standard route for direct share purchases. Some frontier-market and pan-African online brokers provide indirect access. Liquidity is thin for Senegal-domiciled stocks, with only three companies listed.
