Improved Data Management for Better Decision-Making
The Centre de Promotion des Investissements en Côte d’Ivoire (CEPICI) has launched the Guichet Unique de Déclaration de l’Investissement Privé (GUDIP), a new tool aimed at improving governance of private investments in Côte d’Ivoire.
Developed in collaboration with the Direction Générale de l’Économie, with technical and financial support from the Programme d’Appui à l’Amélioration du Climat des Affaires (PACA-CI) funded by the African Development Bank (BAD), GUDIP will centralize, track, and analyze data on private investments in Côte d’Ivoire.
The goal is to address information dispersion, ensure better project tracking, measure conversion rates of investment intentions into actual achievements, and enhance policy management.
According to Madame Solange AMICHIA, Directrice Générale du CEPICI, GUDIP represents ‘a true public governance tool’, based on reliable and up-to-date data, enabling informed decision-making and more accurate evaluation of the private sector’s contribution to growth, employment, and economic transformation.
At the national launch event, which brought together government administrations, technical partners, and private sector actors, she emphasized the need for institutions to fully engage in deploying the system, particularly through data sharing and designated focal points.
The rollout of GUDIP is scheduled between the third quarter 2026 and the first quarter 2027, marking a new step in modernizing Côte d’Ivoire’s investment ecosystem.
By strengthening data quality and project tracking, CEPICI aims to solidify its role as a strategic partner of the State in mobilizing necessary investments for the success of the PND 2026-2030.
