The BRVM’s partnership with the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) will strengthen collaboration on stock market capacity building and facilitate access to green, social and sustainability bonds in francophone West African countries. The MoU, signed in April 2024, is a commitment to green growth and sustainable access to green climate finance. The partnership benefits all eight countries in the West African Economic and Monetary Union.
