The
following remarks can be made about the above table :
-
Since the launching of GARI’s activities, 160 requests
for guarantee for a total amount of CFA F 76.6 billion (in counter-value)
have been received. These requests gave rise to 101 approvals
for an amount, in counter-value, of CFA F 38.8 billion. The
rate of favourable decisions against the number of requests
for guarantee submitted to the decision-making bodies is 60,69%.
-
The guarantees granted since establishment concern an overall
funding amount of CFA F 113.43 billion, whereas the related
overall investment costs amount to CFA F 345.81 billion.
-
From the start, the requests received relate to investments
planned in 10 countries, among which, Côte d’Ivoire
(36%), Senegal (15%) and Benin (13%) lead in terms of volume.
-
As to the guarantee granted per country from the start, the
leading country is Côte d’Ivoire with 42,15% of
the total amount of the guarantees, followed by Benin with 14,66%
and Mali with 10,33%.
-
Up
to 53% of the guarantees granted concern bank institutions,
39% international financial institutions and 8% resource mobilization.
The corresponding investments are mainly carried out in the
agro-industry (48%), industry (29%) and services (11%) sectors.
As
the favourable decisions mainly concerned shareholder institutions
or institutions refunded by shareholders, the average conditions
applied to the Fund’s customers were 2% for the contribution
rate and 1,5% for the charge rate.
The following tables show, in CFA F millions, the features of the
requests for guarantee received and examined since the establishment
of the Fund:
