Finance : Dakar accueille le tout premier forum dédié à la titrisation
Senegal is preparing to explore new avenues for financing its economy. On Saturday, January 17, 2026, the Axil Hotel in Dakar will host the first edition of the Securitization Forum. Under the theme "Securitization and Development Financing: Opportunities, Challenges, and Prospects," this event aims to be a platform for reflection on a financial tool that is still relatively unknown but has immense potential for resource mobilization.
The central objective of this meeting is to demonstrate how securitization can serve as an innovative lever for both the government and the private sector. By transforming illiquid assets into negotiable financial securities, this mechanism diversifies funding sources and stimulates the regional market.
To structure the discussions, two high-level panels will bring together experts from the sector. The first panel will focus on securitization as a strategic lever for financing infrastructure and public policies. It will analyze how this instrument can support major development programs while easing the pressure on public finances.
The second panel will focus on the private sector, presenting securitization as a driver of growth for businesses and a vital factor for financial markets. In addition to these discussions, a keynote address, masterclasses, and practical workshops will provide an opportunity to share lessons learned from successful securitization projects within the WAEMU region.
According to Dr. Abdou Diaw, founder of Le Marché magazine and initiator of the event, this inaugural edition is primarily intended to serve as a platform for educational clarification. The goal is to enable governments, banks, and institutional investors to better understand the opportunities offered by this tool, without overlooking the risks and constraints necessary for its sustainable use.
Beyond this day of reflection, the "Dakar Business Connect" concept aims to become a regular event. It aspires to establish itself as a structured space for dialogue and networking, designed to strengthen synergies between the various players in the regional financial ecosystem.
