Successful conclusion of the first public offering of 2026: the Government of Senegal raises 304.15 billion CFA francs

The Ministry of Finance and the Budget wishes to inform the public of the successful conclusion of the first Public Offering of 2026.

Launched on 26 February 2026, the offering closed on 26 March 2026.

Following this operation, the total amount raised stands at 304.15 billion CFA francs, against an initial target of 200 billion CFA francs, representing a coverage rate of 152%.

The success of this public offering demonstrates the confidence of both institutional and private investors in the quality of the State’s credit rating.

The funds raised will help cover budgetary expenditure and support active debt management as authorised by the 2026 Finance Act.

This first operation forms part of a coherent strategy to mobilise domestic resources and develop the sub-regional financial market, in full alignment with the government’s strategic priorities.

It also contributes to optimising the debt profile through a balanced structure incorporating long maturities of up to 10 years at controlled financing terms, with the following breakdown:

• 3 years: 6.40%

• 5 years: 6.60%

• 7 years: 6.75%

• 10 years: 6.95%.

The Government intends to continue this momentum, in line with its Medium-Term Debt Management Strategy (SDMT).

The Ministry of Finance and the Budget would like to thank all subscribers, citizens, members of the diaspora, businesses, financial institutions and partners for their ongoing support of the Government.
