The rapid turnover of signatories across this series reflects the BCEAO's rotating ministerial structure — the first signatory position changed eleven times in twelve years, tracking shifts in finance ministries across eight member states rather than any single national government. Alassane Ouattara's name appears on the earliest dates; he left the governorship in 1994 to serve as IMF Deputy Managing Director, a move that interrupted his signature run mid-series.
Charles Konan Banny's name dominates the later dates, holding the second position from 1994 through 2003 — an unusually long tenure for a BCEAO governor, and one that lends a rare consistency to the final two-thirds of the run.
