Abstract
The Ivorian economy needs to sustain
its growth momentum. During the last decade, Côte d’Ivoire’s
growth performance has been impressive. To achieve its
ambitious goal of reaching emerging market status within one
or two generations, however, it needs to maintain the strong
growth for many years to come. Fewer than 15 countries have
managed to sustain high growth for over 25 years in the
postwar period, and their experience has shown that
increasing productivity is at the heart of it. To follow in
their footsteps, Ivorian growth also needs to be more
inclusive and reduce structural imbalances, including the
gap between the economic capital, Abidjan, and the rest of
the country. This report addresses this question.
