S&P cited the beneficial impact of higher prices for cocoa and rising exports on the economy.\nDebt swaps for environmental or social goals are gaining in popularity among emerging-market governments and with global banks. The arrangements, which typically take place when a country faces high interest rates on its debt, involve guarantees from public finance institutions that help keep a lid on borrowing costs.\nIvory Coast is completing a debt-for-development swap transaction in which it will repay almost €400 million of its most expensive commercial debt with a new loan, the World Bank said in a Dec. 5 statement. The country will fund the buyback with the 15-year loan being arranged and structured by MUFG, according to people familiar with the matter. The loan is expected to have significantly better terms than the debt that will be repaid given its partial guarantee from the World Bank.\nRepresentatives for Ivory Coast, Standard Chartered, MUFG, Nedbank and Rothschild & Co., which has been advising Ivory Coast, declined to comment. Representatives for Rand Merchant Bank did not immediately respond to a request for comment. \n--With assistance from Jorgelina do Rosario and Adelaide Changole.\n©2024 Bloomberg L.P.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"1","news_tag":"corporation","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.3","shortVersion":"4.29.3","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2491657914"}
