Senegal’s Political Rupture Raises Risk of Debt Reprofile, Says Citibank Citigroup Inc. said the political rupture between Senegal’s president and his former premier has increased the likelihood of a debt reprofiling rather than a restructuring. Relations between the two have deteriorated since President Bassirou Diomaye Faye dismissed Ousmane Sonko as prime minister in May.
