Why investing in French-speaking West Africa requires a local partner
The West African franc zone (UEMOA) and CEMAC region cover 17 countries operating under the OHADA legal framework, an ambitious harmonization of business law unique to French-speaking Africa. While this brings predictability, it also means foreign investors and diaspora entrepreneurs must navigate specific regulatory, accounting and tax frameworks that differ significantly from French, US or UK standards.
Cabinet Carrée bridges this gap. Our team combines local expertise (Dakar-based since 2019, with operational presence in Abidjan, Bamako, Douala, Yaoundé, Cotonou, Ouagadougou, Lomé) with the methodological rigor demanded by international stakeholders.
For African diaspora investors
Whether you are based in France, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Italy or Spain, we help you invest confidently in West Africa.
Typical use cases: setting up a subsidiary in Senegal or Côte d'Ivoire, conducting due diligence on a target acquisition, structuring real estate or industrial projects, complying with the new diaspora bond regulations, repatriating profits within OHADA framework.
