Why Invest in Senegal Sovereign SUKUKs?

This is a landmark opportunity as the first of its nature in the WAEMU zone

Why SUKUKs are Important for the Government of Senegal

� ALTERNATIVE ECONOMIC FINANCING TOOL . The government of Senegal is committed to make Islamic finance an alternative tool for financing economic development. The Sukuks will be increasingly a substitute to the Tbills issued by the Treasury to finance the budget and some development project

� DIVERSIFICATION OF LONG TERM FUNDING SOURCES: The Islamic financing institutions (“IFI”) have limited source of funding when compared to conventional Banks. To eliminate this obstacle which also provoques a disadvantage for IFIs in the market, issuance of Sukuks would increase the long-term borrowing capabilities of the IFIs. This may also help the IFIs to better manage the liabilities.

� SOVEREIGN SUKUK AS A REMEDY FOR SHORT-TERM LIQUIDIT Y MANAGEMENT: The Sukuk would serve as an instrument for short term borrowings of IFIs from the Central Bank. This instrument will support the IFIs in the WARMU zone to widen their investment portfolios and to facilitate them a more efficient and effective liquidity management.

� ALTERNATIVE SOURCE FOR THE EXPANDING PRIVATE INVES TMENTS: There is a considerable demand but limited offering for sharia-compliant investment in Senegal. As a result, issuance of Sukuk in CFA will fill this gap in the sector.
