Groupe de travail 3 : investissement et financement des infrastructures Le financement des infrastructures en Afrique
Authors
October 2, 2020

Le manque d’investissement dans les infrastructures en Afrique s’est creusé au fil du temps. Remédier à l’inadéquation entre le « trop-plein mondial d’épargne » des pays développés et la « pénurie d’investissements » des pays africains pourrait être une solution gagnante pour tous. Certains outils d’atténuation des risques peuvent être utilisés pour faciliter cette mise en adéquation. À cet égard, le présent article propose qu’en fournissant de tels outils d’atténuation des risques, les institutions de développement et les gouvernements soient en mesure d’attirer les investissements privés, plutôt que de les évincer en finançant entièrement les investissements.

    Depuis 2016, on assiste à une dynamique de création de fonds souverains africains. En 2023, on recense 21 pays et 24 fonds souverains. Sur la seule période 2016-23, celle de la deuxième vague, huit pays vont se doter d’un premier fonds souverain, et d’un deuxième, dans le cas du Maroc, en 2022. Cette étude rappelle tout d’abord l’historique d’une création qui commence, dès 1994, au Botswana, avec le Pula Fund, précisant pour chacun des 24 fonds leur date de création, leur ...

    The role of the production network in shock propagation has been an issue of considerable interest since the Great Recession. However, the empirical literature has only focused on advanced and emerging countries. This paper aims to contribute to filling this gap by examining the case of Morocco, a developing country belonging to the lower-middle-income group. The question is whether its production network is a factor in amplifying idiosyncratic industry-level shocks or, conversely, ...
