The CNPS (Caisse Nationale de Prévoyance Sociale) has become a partial owner of private clinics, including the Polyclinique des Deux Plateaux and the Polyclinique Internationale de l’Indénié. Groupe Novamed is a major player in private healthcare in Côte d’Ivoire and the sub-region, operating a network of clinics and specialized centers across numerous medical fields.

Present in several West African countries, the group employs hundreds of healthcare professionals and treats hundreds of thousands of patients every year. This move is not just a financial investment but a strategic decision to use contributions to strengthen the healthcare system and ease the burden on public hospitals.

For context, the CNPS – Côte d’Ivoire’s National Social Security Fund – has actively invested in the Ivorian economy for several years by acquiring stakes in private companies.
