III THEM BUILDING SITES OF THE UNION
As of its creation, the Union built its integrating project
around large axes, which constitute building sites in perpetual
construction.
As its name indicates it, the UEMOA chose the form of the
integration, most thorough. Indeed, the economic Union creates a regional
economic area really unified where not only the goods but also the people and
the capital can circulate freely. It for this reason requires the harmonization
of many regulations and a co-operation in the field of the economic macro
policy.
Integration is carried out mainly through four building
sites : the coordination of the national macroeconomic policies, the
installation of a Common Market (customs union where prevail freedom of
movement of the people of the services, the capital and the right of
establishment), harmonization and the cleansing of the economic regulations,
the implementation of the sectoral policies.
III.1 - Convergences of the performances
and the economic policies of the States
The Union fixed criteria of first and second rank to be respected
by its members for a better convergence of the performances and economic
policies.
The institution of the multilateral monitoring makes it possible
the Member States to exert their right of mutual glance on their economic
policies in order to face, in time, serious possible macro-economic imbalances
prejudicial with monetary stability.
