Côte d’Ivoire experienced political instability in  the past 15 years. With the political crisis  overcome, the economic outlook for Côte  d’Ivoire is strong. There are two main channels  through which the recovery in Côte d’Ivoire can  affect other WAEMU countries: the real  economy channel and the financial channel.  Overall, resumption of trade, remittances and  investment from Côte d’Ivoire to other countries  would have a positive impact on the region,  whereas large borrowing needs may generate  negative spillovers. In the medium term, the  recovery also offers opportunities to accelerate  regional integration.
