| | | Title | Addressing the Illicit Tobacco Trade in Senegal: Strategies for Enhancing Public Health and Economic Stability | | Author | ACBF | | Date of Publication | 2023 | | Publisher | ACBF | | Number of Pages | 4 | | Abstract | The illicit tobacco trade in Senegal is a significant issue, with an estimated value of over 14 billion FCFA (approx. 30 million USD), representing 0.16% of the country's GDP. This trade undermines public health policies, fiscal revenues, and fuels transnational criminal activities. The study findings highlight the need for improved border security, regular consumer behavior surveys, enhanced inter-agency communication, harmonization of tobacco taxation within the ECOWAS region, and modernization of tobacco seizure data collection. | | Filesize | 1134187 MB | | File Format | PDF | | [ View / download original document ] |
