The declaration was made after a two-day meeting of the Consultative Group for the 2026-2030 National Development Plan (PND), attended by over 2,000 investors from 49 countries at Abidjan.

The funding includes investments from financial institutions, investment funds, banks, business organizations, state-owned and private enterprises, as well as development partners, representing top-level officials.

The total commitment reached is $80 billion in US dollars, equivalent to approximately $47.82 billion in CFA francs, exceeding the target of $11.14 billion.

The PND 2026-2030 aims to build a stable, ambitious, and solidary nation, with a global investment volume of over $209 billion over five years, with private sector driving 70.2% of this transformation.

Private Ivoirian businesses will receive particular attention in implementing the PND 2026-2030, which is built around six clearly defined priorities: peace, security, and stability; agriculture and agro-industry; private sector development and industrialization; human capital; strategic infrastructure; good governance, and state modernization.

Macroeconomically, objectives are ambitious, requiring the mobilization of all the nation to raise Côte d’Ivoire to an upper-middle-income economy by 2030, with a GDP per capita of $4,500 and a poverty rate below 20%.

For the President, his responsibility is to transform this trust and funding commitment into tangible realizations for every Ivoirian through more schools, hospitals, roads, jobs, opportunities, and shared prosperity.
