Abstract
On 6 July 2024 in Niamey, the leaders of Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger signed the constitutive act of the Confederation of Sahel States, at the same time confirming the departure of these three countries from the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). The new Confederation of the Sahel States has decided, among other things, to set up an investment bank and a stabilisation fund. It is therefore plausible that the confederation will soon adopt a common currency. This issue is of utmost importance for many countries so it is worthwhile to see how the proposed new currency will be guaranteed by the natural resources of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES). The aim of this article is to examine the theoretical foundations and practical aspects underlying the creation of a common currency based on natural resources within the AES.
