Historic and organisation

ABCS was created in 2013 as a result of the scientific colloquium and Economic Forum organised as part of the commemorative activities of the 20th anniversary of OHADA held in the Yaoundé Congress Hall from 22 to 26 October 2013, under the High Patronage of His Excellency Paul BIYA, President of the Republic of Cameroon, with support from OHADA organs and the Cameroon Business Forum.

ABCS’s creation was decided at the end of discussions led by a panel of international experts under the coordination of the « Centre de Recherche et de Documentation Multimedia » (CREDO) under the theme « OHADA, at the Service of the Economy and Businesses: Efficacy and Competitiveness ».

ABCS is an association that has become a legal entity as per Declaration N°001211/RDA/J06/SAAJP/BAPP issued on 13th October 2016 by the Yaounde Divisional Officer (Cameroon).

The ABCS shall, by 2025, become an independant and trustworthy institution, a whistleblowing, initiating and proposal-making group lending its expertise for the follow-up and evaluation of the effectiveness and efficacy of the legal norm as an instrument that works towards the performance of companies on the one hand, and the economic growth of countries, on the other hand, by 2025.
