The quarterly magazine "Al Maal Echo" was officially launched on September 21, 2026, in N'Djamena, Chad. The magazine's name, "Al Maal", which translates to "money", "wealth", or "capital" in Arabic, reflects its focus on economic and financial information. The editorial team aims to highlight Chad's economic transformations, entrepreneurial initiatives, reforms, and market developments.
According to Aimé Guessimbaye Djikoloum, Director of Publication, the launch of "Al Maal Echo" responds to the need for better coverage of Chad's economy. He stated that despite the country's progress, investments, and reforms, these developments are often underreported or not reported at all, depriving citizens of understanding their economy.
"Al Maal Echo" will be published quarterly, featuring content on Chad's key economic and financial issues. The magazine will include sectoral analyses, financial market monitoring, portraits of Chadian initiatives, global economic news, and in-depth dossiers. The first issue focuses on "TchadConnexion2030", highlighting essential connections for the country's economic development.
The theme "TchadConnexion2030" emphasizes connections between the state and private sector, finance and real economy, Chad and Africa, and local and diaspora talents. Entrepreneurship also plays a significant role in the magazine, with a focus on the role of businesses in creating wealth and jobs. Djikoloum lamented that Chadian entrepreneurs often receive little attention.
"Al Maal Echo" aims to give more visibility to entrepreneurs, businesses, and initiatives contributing to Chad's economic transformation. The magazine is structured around several sections, including Editorial, Interview, Maal of the Month, Sectoral Analysis, Markets and Finance, World Echo, Innovations and Initiatives, and Business Notebook.
The editorial team hopes that "Al Maal Echo" will help citizens understand and engage with Chad's economy. By providing in-depth coverage of economic issues, the magazine seeks to promote economic development and informed decision-making.
With its launch, "Al Maal Echo" becomes a significant addition to Chad's media landscape, providing a platform for discussing economic issues and promoting entrepreneurship. The magazine's quarterly publication will ensure consistent coverage of Chad's economic developments.
