The overall amount put up for auction is 30 billion FCFA, but the Ivorian public treasury ended up with 43 billion FCFA in overall bids made by investors, ie a coverage rate of the amount put up for auction of 143.33%. The resources retained are intended to cover the financing needs of the State budget of Côte d'Ivoire.
