Day 3 Highlights: Regional Consultation on Strengthening Sovereign Credit Ratings in West Africa

We wrapped up the final day of the regional consultation by focusing on something just as powerful as numbers: narrative.

🎙 In a dynamic session, participants explored how media and messaging shape perceptions of creditworthiness — and why strategic communication is essential to financial sovereignty.

🧩 Countries then presented their national action plans for building credible, transparent, and well-coordinated sovereign credit strategies.

🤝 Partners pledged continued support, tools, and resources to help African nations implement and sustain their rating reform journeys.
