​​As in 2020, in 2021 the external environment was strongly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, determining, to some extent, the performance of Banco de Cabo Verde (hereinafter, Bank or BCV) as the entity responsible for maintaining price stability and the national financial system. In fact, the Bank contributed proactively to mitigating the effects of the pandemic crisis on the economy, always bearing in mind its particular role in ensuring financial system resilience and protecting liquidity and flow of credit to Cabo Verdean households and businesses. 

​Internally, Banco de Cabo Verde had important achievements in 2021, namely: (i) moving to a new headquarters; (ii) approving the Strategic Plan for 2021-2024; (iii) revising the Organic Regulations, among others.​
