The Regional Stock Exchange achieves a historic milestone. As of January 30, 2026, the capitalization of the stock market exceeds for the first time the symbolic threshold of 14,000 billion CFA francs, reaching 14,069.66 billion CFA francs.
Compared to December 31, 2025, the regional financial market shows a 5.54% increase, representing almost 739 billion CFA francs of additional value created in less than a month. This performance reflects a particularly dynamic start to the year, driven by both the rise of several large capitalizations and a significant increase in market activity.
Several leading stocks have contributed to this surge, including UNILEVER CI, SONATEL SN, ECOBANK CI, SIB CI, and ORANGE CI, in a context where 39 out of 47 listed companies have recorded positive performances since the beginning of the year.
The trading volumes confirm this trend. During the period from January 2 to January 30, 2026, transactions reached 31.18 billion CFA francs, up 178% compared to the previous year, reflecting a marked return of liquidity and increased investor confidence in the regional market.
