KPMG is consistently close to the market. We can observe this in France, for example, where KPMG has set up in nearly165 towns and where it has really become submerged in the economic fabric, particularly in the smallest towns where the KPMG offices are found.
There are about 21 million mobile users in the Ivorian market. The growth in the market last year was a bit more than 10%. Our growth was 300% so obviously we were the operator that benefited the most, considering our previous very low position in this market.
I think the demand is there and it is strong. There are lots of projects which we have become involved in and for which the government has signed concession contracts with new operators. These projects must play a role in the years to come but also continue to grow, so I think there are places for operators to help meet the needs.
Today, the new challenge is how we will go from a situation where we had 2 or 3 projects every year to a situation where we have to manage a lot more projects. Right now, we have more projects in our portfolio for the 2015-2017 program than what we have managed in the past 12 years.
