With the exception of Côte d’Ivoire, which is a developing country, the seven other member States of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU), namely Benin, Burkina Faso, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo, are all least developed countries (LDCs). The eight member States as a whole have a GDP of around €97 billion. Depending on the member State, the informal sector accounts from between one to two thirds of real GDP. The total population, numbering 119 million in 2017, is spread over an immense region of 3.5 million km2, a large part of it desert, and is growing at an average rate of 3.1% annually.
