Highlighting the significant reforms proposed by the Macron-Ouattara agreement of 2019, this book examines the potential for central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and other innovative monetary policies to transform the financial systems of CFA franc countries. It discusses the need for economic diversification, regional integration, and political commitment to achieve a more independent and prosperous future.
