Lors d’une table ronde tenue en marge de la 54\u00e8 \u00e9dition du Forum \u00e9conomique mondial \u00e0 Davos, le secr\u00e9taire g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de la Zlecaf, Wamkele Mene a annonc\u00e9 que Vingt-quatre nouveaux pays africains rejoindront cette ann\u00e9e l\u2019initiative de commerce guid\u00e9, qui a d\u00e9j\u00e0 permis \u00e0 sept pays du continent (Ghana, Cameroun, Rwanda, Kenya, Maurice, Egypte et Tanzanie) d\u2019entamer leurs \u00e9changes commerciaux dans le cadre des conditions pr\u00e9f\u00e9rentielles de la Zone de libre-\u00e9change continentale africaine (ZLECAf) en 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00ab Sur les 47 pays qui ont ratifi\u00e9 la zone de libre-\u00e9change continentale africaine, 31 rejoindront l’initiative dite de commerce guid\u00e9 contre sept en 2023 \u00bb, a-t-il d\u00e9clar\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L’initiative de commerce guid\u00e9 a \u00e9t\u00e9 lanc\u00e9e en octobre 2022 pour \u00ab envoyer un message positif aux op\u00e9rateurs \u00e9conomiques africains \u00bb et \u00ab tester l’environnement op\u00e9rationnel, institutionnel et juridique de la mise en \u0153uvre de l’accord de la ZLECAf \u00bb. Elle a d\u00e9j\u00e0 permis \u00e0 sept pays dont le Ghana, le Kenya et l\u2019Egypte d\u2019\u00e9changer librement, avec des pr\u00e9f\u00e9rences tarifaires, 96 produits pour lesquels des r\u00e8gles d\u2019origine existent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La liste de ces produits comprend entre autres les produits pharmaceutiques, le caoutchouc, les p\u00e2tes alimentaires, le th\u00e9, le caf\u00e9, l\u2019acier et le bois.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L’initiative comprend \u00e9galement l\u2019utilisation du Syst\u00e8me panafricain de paiement et de r\u00e8glement (PAPSS), une infrastructure de march\u00e9 financier r\u00e9volutionnaire permettant d\u2019effectuer des paiements transfrontaliers instantan\u00e9s en monnaies locales entre les march\u00e9s africains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Selon M. Mene, ce syst\u00e8me multilat\u00e9ral de r\u00e8glement devrait permettre au continent d\u2019\u00e9conomiser plus de 5 milliards de dollars en co\u00fbts de transactions de paiement chaque ann\u00e9e, en simplifiant les transactions transfrontali\u00e8res et en r\u00e9duisant la d\u00e9pendance \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9gard des devises fortes pour ces transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
L\u2019adh\u00e9sion de 24 nouveaux pays \u00e0 l’initiative de commerce guid\u00e9 repr\u00e9sente une \u00e9tape importante sur la voie de l\u2019op\u00e9rationnalisation de la ZLECAf qui devrait augmenter le commerce intra-africain de 53 % et transformer le continent en un march\u00e9 tr\u00e8s attractif de 1,3 milliard de consommateurs potentiels, selon les estimations du Fonds mon\u00e9taire international (FMI). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
