What used to be seen as small and underdeveloped is now grabbing attention as a hotspot for investments and business growth. Ghana’s benchmark stock index, which led the continent as the top performer last year, is a prime example.

In neighbouring Ivory Coast, the BRVM Composite Share Index—representing companies from the eight-member West African Economic and Monetary Union—rose by 29% in 2024, marking its largest gain in three years.
