S&P: Waemu sovereigns less directly exposed to geopolitical tensions & tariffs

S&P Global Ratings believes rising global geopolitical tensions and tariffs, uncertainties regarding U.S. policies on the African Growth Opportunity Act and USAID, challenges related to security, climate-related events, as well a volatile commodity prices, could be increasing financial and economic risks to countries on the African continent. However, it notes that sovereigns in the West African Economic and Monetary Union seem to be less directly exposed to these risks than their peers. Sebastien Boreux, Sovereign Analyst at S&P Global Ratings, joins CNBC Africa to put this into a better context.
