Thinking about economic intelligence

Geopolitical and geo-economic dynamics are becoming increasingly intense in West Africa, in a context where traditional economic intelligence shows its limits. Economic intelligence is limited to the collection, monitoring, and evaluation of economic information, in terms of opportunities and threats, between competition and the macroeconomic environment of countries. Geopolitical intelligence goes beyond.

It takes into account geopolitical rivalries, decisions, and political tensions that increasingly shape the business environment and impact both the regulatory framework and macroeconomic dynamics. Geopolitical intelligence is not exclusively focused on political issues, but it collects, processes, and evaluates all information that may explain the behavior of states, the rivalries, and the threats that arise for the business world. 

ESPA Advisory provides independent and highly specialized analytical expertise. With our West African Country Risk Index (WACRI), we go beyond traditional financial indicators by integrating security, geopolitical (external), digital, and climate dynamics into our strategic analyses and advice.

In this context, ESPA Advisory modernizes access to strategic intelligence in West Africa through a digital, responsive, and accessible model. You have the option to subscribe to our analyses and advice, according to different plans, to stay informed about the daily geopolitical dynamics of the region and have a responsive and quick advisory and understanding system. You also have the option to directly purchase our summary notes, insights, and strategic reports directly on the site.
