Résumé
Our study contributes to the literature on the dynamics of African financial markets by examining the dependence structure between the BRVM, the economic fundamentals of the WAEMU and global factors. Using the quantile regression approach, our empirical findings show that investors have to overcome several difficulties to correctly understand the dynamics of the BRVM market. These difficulties reduce the attractiveness of the BRVM. Tax incentives to attract more companies to the stock market, in particular companies in the exporting sectors (mining and agricultural sectors), could help to increase the liquidity and attractiveness of the BRMV. This can concretely materialize by creating a new index: BRVM Export sectors. JEL Classification: G11, G14, G15, O55.
