Ivory Coast

With an overall average score of 5.51, the Ivory Coast aligns perfectly with the global average. However, the most notable trend this year is the continued strength of Account Management, which remains steady at 6.00- consistent over the past three years and a significant improvement from its 4.90 rating in 2022. Asset Safety( 6.20) received the highest score this year, showing a slight improvement from 6.00 in 2024, though it has yet to return to its 2020 peak of 6.42. This is particularly significant, as clients cite Asset Safety as a key priority in the Ivory Coast. One SGSS client notes that this progress has been ongoing for over 15 years, describing the market as a“ stable zone” with a“ solid legal background.” That said, there are areas of concern. Technology( 4.60) experienced a sharp decline, dropping 107 basis points in the past year— the only category to see a downturn. Meanwhile, Asset Servicing recorded the largest increase, rising by 0.67 to achieve an impressive 6.00. Overall, client sentiment remains positive, with providers in the market well-regarded. Clients particularly highlight their confidence in SGSS, describing it as“ dedicated to clients’ needs” and delivering an“ above average” service.
