En effet, il a été constaté que les PME en Afrique ne bénéficient pas suffisamment de financement pour leur croissance. Ce programme consiste alors à la création d'un fonds de financement spécifiquement destiné à fournir des prêts aux petites et moyennes institutions financières (IF) de niveau 2 et 3 en Afrique, qui les rétrocèdent ensuite aux PME. Fondamentalement, ce financement est également associé à une assistance technique (AT) pour aider les IF bénéficiaires à accroître leur capacité à prêter aux PME. Concrètement, cela implique souvent de former les responsables de crédit et l'équipe de gestion des risques des banques afin qu'elles puissent mieux évaluer le risque réel des PME et démystifier le mythe selon lequel ces prêts constituent toujours un investissement risqué qui ne peut être fait qu’avec des garanties importantes. Les IF peuvent également choisir d'offrir de nouveaux produits mieux adaptés et diversifiés à leur clientèle de PME. De plus, les clients des PME peuvent obtenir une formation en «littératie financière» et en «gestion d'entreprise» si cela améliore leurs propositions de prêts aux IF. En plus du Burkina Faso, des prêts ont également été accordés à des institutions en Mauritanie, au Mozambique, au Nigéria, au Rwanda, en Sierra Leone, au Swaziland, en Tunisie et en Zambie.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en"/><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'objectif de la ligne de crédit d'un montant de 2,5 millions d'euros est de soutenir les projets de PME dans des secteurs économiques tels que le commerce, le commerce de détail, le transport et la construction, etc.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en"/><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les bénéficiaires directs de la ligne de crédit sont les petites et moyennes institutions financières (IF).

The partnership has three components: (1) a EUR 25 million subordinated loan; (2) a EUR 10 million trade finance line; (3) a maximum guaranteed amount of EUR 15 million as portfolio guarantee envelope which is a partial credit guarantee dedicated to women's businesses. The project will participate in improving the inclusiveness of growth given the targeting of labour-intensive sectors and improving access to finance for &#13;
underserved businesses, especially SMEs, women-owned and youth-owned businesses. The project will achieve good development outcomes mainly through (i) private sector development through improved lending capacity for NSIA CI and increased access to finance for its customers, including SMEs; and (ii) gender and social effects given the expected financial support for businesses headed or owned by women, and the contribution to sub-projects based in rural zones.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention est relative à l’octroi d’un financement d’un montant de 50 millions d’Euros pour soutenir NSIA Banque Côte d’Ivoire (NSIA CI) dans sa stratégie d’accompagnement des Petites et Moyennes Entreprises (PME) locales.

OCP is specialized in the extraction, transformation, and commercialization of phosphate and its by-products. JPH is a 1,800 hectares industrial platform built to host ten integrated fertilizer plants. The platform has a production capacity of up to 1 MTPA of phosphorus equivalent (P2O5) per plant. Through this specialized industrial platform, OCP aims to attract major foreign investors in the sector, while offering them an opportunity to produce their phosphate products on-site and in the best conditions. As of today, the JPH development is almost completed but requires additional investments to allow for higher levels of production on-site and to meet the increasing demand of fertilizer in regional and global markets. Expansion of OCP’s Jorf Phosphate Hub (JPH) encompassing (i) the extension of fertilizer storage capacity by 200,000 additional tons, (ii) the construction of a new fertilizer loading platform, (iii) the expansion of seawater pumping and recovery capacities, and (iv) the rehabilitation of a number of ancillary facilities, including electrical, water, and security in various parts of the platform.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente opération consiste en l’octroi d’un prêt à l’entreprise de l’ordre de 200 millions d’USD pour accompagner la mise en œuvre du programme d’extension de la plateforme Jorf Phosphate Hub (JPH) de l’ Office Chérifien des phosphates (OCP). L’OCP est spécialisé dans l’extraction, la transformation et la commercialisation du phosphate et de ses produits dérivés. JPH est une plateforme industrielle de 1 800 hectares construite pour accueillir dix usines intégrées d’engrais. Elle a une capacité de production pouvant atteindre 1 MTPA de phosphore équivalent (P2O5) par usine. L’OCP entend, à travers la mise en place de cette plateforme industrielle spécialisée, à attirer les grands investisseurs étrangers du secteur, tout en leur offrant la possibilité de produire leurs produits phosphatés sur place et dans les meilleures conditions. À ce jour, l’implantation de JPH est quasiment achevée mais des investissements additionnels sont nécessaires pour permettre d’augmenter la production sur place et faire face à la demande croissante d’engrais sur les marchés régionaux et mondiaux. Le projet vise à étendre la plateforme Jorf Phosphate Hub (JPH) de l’OCP, par : i) l’augmentation de la capacité de stockage des engrais de 200 000 tonnes additionnelles, ii) la construction d’une nouvelle plateforme de chargement des engrais, iii) l’augmentation des capacités de pompage et de récupération de l’eau de mer, et iv) la réhabilitation d’un certain nombre d’infrastructures annexes, notamment celles d’électricité, d’eau et de sécurité, à divers points de la plateforme.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project is in support of OCP’s expansion plan for JPH aimed at locally transforming the bulk of phosphate mineral into fertilizer and exporting it to regional and global markets. In other words, this program will enable OCP to process domestically more of its phosphate rock production into higher value-added fertilizer products to be exported to the African continent and worldwide.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet est de transformer sur place les ressources naturelles locales (roche phosphatée) du pays en produits à forte valeur ajoutée (engrais) utilisés pour accroître la productivité dans le secteur agricole.

Also, the industrial platform will enable different operators to benefit from significant economies of scale through the standardization of units and the sharing of common services such as loading and unloading, supply of raw materials, utilities, storage, management and storage of discharges, connection to the port, etc. OCP is the largest private employer in Morocco with over 21,000 employees and the expansion project is expected to generate 910 additional jobs in the Jorf Lasfar complex while 18,000 new jobs are expected to be created globally by OCP over the 10 years’ loan life.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet aura des retombées économiques substantielles sur la création d’emploi, l’efficacité de la production, les recettes fiscales et en devises du pays, et contribuera par ailleurs au développement de l’industrie des phosphates et des infrastructures logistiques requises pour accompagner ce développement. En outre, la plateforme industrielle permettra à une diversité d’opérateurs de bénéficier d’importantes économies d’échelle grâce à la standardisation des unités et le partage de services communs tels que le chargement et le déchargement, l’approvisionnement en matières premières, les services publics, le stockage, la gestion et le stockage des rejets, la liaison avec le port, etc. L’OCP est le plus gros employeur privé du Maroc avec plus de 21 000 agents, et le projet d’extension devrait générer 910 emplois supplémentaires dans le complexe Jorf Lasfar tandis que dans l’ensemble, 18 000 nouveaux emplois devraient être créés par l’OCP au cours des dix années que durera le prêt.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>OCP SA</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2018-11-22" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-12-04" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PINS2</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Daniel Constant M'PENG BAYOI</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>d.m-bayoi@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="MA"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2550048"/><name><narrative>El Jorf Lasfar</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>33.1615 -8.62939</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="32110"><narrative>Industrial policy and administrative management</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.9.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Industry -

The BNDE was established in 2013 following the restructuring of the erstwhile publicowned Economic Promotion Fund (FPE). Nine of the bank’s thirteen branches are located in rural areas. BNDE needs long-term resources to finance agriculture-related activities, through the provision of financing for processing and industrialization within the agricultural value chain. The LoC will provide in particular BNDE with stable resources to improve the coverage ratio of its long-and medium-term commitments. The Bank's support will also assist BNDE in building the capacity of its agricultural credit officers, risk management, project management, environmental and social management systems as well as the management of development results. Indeed, a technical assistance from the Fund for Africa Private Sector Assistance (FAPA) to BNDE will enable it to strengthen its risk management system, and implement an environmental and social management system. This project, which complements the intervention of the AfDB and other donors in the agricultural value chain in Senegal, should help reduce food imports and contribute to the achievement of the development objectives of the emerging Senegal plan.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur une ligne de crédit (LdC) de 15 millions d’euros en faveur de la Banque nationale pour le développement économique (BNDE) du Sénégal avec une échéance de 6 ans (y compris un délai de grâce de deux ans). La BNDE a été créée en 2013 à la suite de la restructuration de l'ancien Fonds public de promotion économique (FPE). Neuf des treize filiales de la banque sont situées en milieu rural. La BNDE a besoin de ressources longues pour financer les activités liées à l’agriculture, à travers la mise en place de financements destinés à la transformation et à l’industrialisation dans le cadre de la chaîne de valeur agricole. La LdC fournira notamment à la BNDE des ressources stables pour améliorer le taux de couverture de ses engagements à long et moyen terme. L’appui de la Banque viendra également soutenir la BNDE dans le renforcement des capacités de ses agents de crédit du secteur agricole, la gestion des risques, la gestion de projets, les systèmes de gestion environnementale et sociale ainsi que la gestion des résultats en matière de développement. En effet, une assistance technique à la BNDE du Fonds au fonds fiduciaire pour l'assistance au secteur privé en Afrique (FAPA), lui permettra de renforcer son système de gestion des risques et de mettre en œuvre un système de gestion environnementale et sociale. Ce projet, en complément de l’intervention de la BAD et des autres bailleurs dans la chaîne de valeur agricole au Sénégal, devrait contribuer à réduire les importations de denrées alimentaires et participer à l’atteinte des objectifs de développement du plan Sénégal émergent.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The line of credit (LOC) is aimed at financing some ten small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the agriculture, fisheries, poultry farming and agro-industry sectors. This funding aims to create more than 1,000 direct jobs in rural areas, mainly for young people. It will also help to promote women's empowerment. To this end, the LDC will help unlock access to financing for the most vulnerable populations, thus promoting the creation of wealth and local employment, which are essential for reducing poverty and the exodus of rural populations.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La ligne de crédit (LDC) a pour objectif de financer une dizaine de petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) dans les secteurs de l’agriculture, de la pêche, de l’aviculture et de l’agro-industrie.

The Djermaya 28 MWe Solar PV Independent Power Producer project involves the purchase by the Societé Nationale de l’Electricité (SNE) of the power generated by a solar PV power plant in Djermaya, under a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), 30km north of N’Djamena. This PV power plant is designed, constructed, operated and transfered on a build-own-operate-transfer basis (BOOT) by the independent power producer Djermaya CDEN Energy (DCE). The electricity will be sold to the grid at an initial tariff of XAF 79 per Kwh. The Partial Risk Guarantee (PRG) offered by the African Development Fund (ADF) which this document describes will mitigate for the IPP and for the providers of debt financing to the IPP the risk of non-payment of electricity bills by SNE’s under the PPA. Specifically, the PRG will provide credit enhancement to SNE on their payment obligations. The provision of an ADF PRG will facilitate the SNE to procure from a commercial bank that is acceptable to project parties a standby letter of credit at sustainable conditions. The letter of credit will provide liquidity in support of SNE’s electricity bill payment obligations under the PPA and will enable financial closure of the project, by reducing project risk and improving the bankability of the overall financing structure of the investment. The proposal concerns bills for power generated, as well as issued bills during the testing period and bills issued in the case of no intervention from the date of electricity delivery to the target date due to a failure of the Government or of the SNE or in case of political force majeure.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente opération porte sur une garantie partielle de risque (GPR) du Fonds africain de développement (FAD) d’une valeur d’environ [8.065.231,59 UC (équivalent à 10.000.000 EUR)] à la République du Tchad dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre du projet de production indépendante d’électricité (PIE) de la centrale photovoltaïque de Djermaya. Le projet de production indépendante d’électricité de la centrale solaire photovoltaïque de Djermaya d’une capacité de 28 MW, prévoit l’achat par la SNE, au titre d’un contrat d’achat d’électricité (CAE) d’une durée de 25 ans, de l’électricité produite par ladite centrale située à 30 km au nord de N’Djamena. Cette centrale sera conçue, construite, exploitée et transférée selon un contrat de constructionpropriété-exploitation-transfert (CPET) conclu par le producteur indépendant d’électricité Djermaya CDEN Energy (DCE). L’électricité sera vendue au réseau à un tarif initial de 79 XAF par kWh (EUR 0.12). L’octroi d’une GPR du FAD facilitera l’obtention par la SNE auprès d’une banque commerciale acceptable par les parties du projet d’une lettre de crédit standby à des conditions soutenables. La lettre de crédit fournira de la liquidité en soutien aux obligations de paiement de la SNE des factures d’électricité au titre du CAE et permettra la clôture financière du projet en réduisant les risques et en améliorant la banquabilité de la structure globale de l’investissement. La proposition concerne les factures pour l’électricité produite, ainsi que les factures émises durant la période des tests ou celles émises en cas de non intervention de la date de fourniture d’électricité à la date cible en raison d’un défaut du Gouvernement ou de la SNE ou d’un cas de force majeure politique.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The main objective of the Project is to diversify the energy mix, provide clean, reliable, low-cost power and to strengthen Chad’s national grid by increasing national installed renewable power by approximately 15%.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet vise principalement la diversification du bouquet énergétique et la fourniture d’une électricité propre, fiable et à bas coût.

The project will add 28 MWe to the installed capacity in Chad, which is equivalent to 15% of installed capacity. Access to affordable and reliable renewable energy will contribute to overall economic growth in Chad through among other things increased firm productivity and creation of small and medium sized businesses and as such contribute to poverty reduction and tax revenue generation.  PRG will also allow SNE, an institution of relatively recent origin, to build a solid track record in the sector which will benefit future Independent Power Producers in the future.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Producteur indépendant d’électricité (PIE) augmentera la fourniture d’électricité aux particuliers, ce qui profitera à 60.000 foyers et en grande partie aux femmes et aux enfants, ainsi qu’aux entreprises et aux industries. Cela créera des possibilités d’emploi pour les jeunes et les femmes et améliorera la prestation des services sociaux, notamment au niveau des écoles et des hôpitaux, et d’autres services. Le projet ajoutera 28 MW à la puissance installée du Tchad, ce qui équivaut à 15 % de cette puissance totale. L’accès à une énergie renouvelable à la fois abordable et fiable contribuera à la croissance économique globale au Tchad, notamment par l’augmentation de la productivité des entreprises et la création de petites et moyennes entreprises. La GPR permettra également à la SNE, entreprise publique relativement récente, d’acquérir une solide expérience dans le secteur, ce qui profitera aux futurs producteurs indépendants d’électricité.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46003" type="40"><narrative>African Development Fund</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="TD-COA-33" type="10"><narrative>Société Nationale d'Electricité (SNE)</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-09-26" type="1"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PESR2</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Charles Wilfried ABEDIER</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, PESR2</narrative></job-title><telephone>+225 27 2026 4350</telephone><email>c.abedier@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="TD"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2433630"/><name><narrative>Djermaya</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>12.40071 15.05436</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23111"><narrative>Energy sector policy, planning and administration</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

Djermaya Solar is a key building block of the Desert to Power Initiative and is of high strategic importance for Chad. It is the first renewable power generation project in the country, as well as the first Public Private Partnership that the country is implementing. The project site is located 30 km north of N’Djamena on a 100ha piece of land awarded by presidential decree. The project consists of the design, financing, construction, operation, and transfer of a 28MWe solar PV plant and interconnection infrastructure. The plant includes PV modules mounted on single-axis trackers, inverters, and step-up transformers. The interconnection infrastructure includes an 18 km 33kV aerial double-circuit transmission line, two 33/90kV step-up transformers at the Lamadji sub-station, and an 8MW battery stabilization system. The project is structured as an Independent Power Producer (IPP) and will be funded primarily through private investment. It is an opportunity to improve energy access in Chad by developing its natural solar potential. Moreover, the Project will set a precedent for PPPs in the country and create an opportunity for replication for other solar power projects on the Sahel region in the framework of the Desert to Power Initiative. Construction of the plant is expected to begin during Q1 2020 with commercial operations to commence 12 months later. Private investors will own the plant for 25 years of operations and then transfer it to the National Electricity Company (SNE). Interconnection infrastructure (including the battery system) will be transferred to the SNE after construction and commissioning.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur un prêt de 18 millions d’euros ainsi qu’une Garantie partielle de risque (GPR), pour la mise en place de la centrale solaire de Djermaya au Tchad. La centrale solaire de Djermaya est un projet phare de l’Initative Desert to Power et revêt une importance stratégique pour le Tchad. Il s’agit du premier projet de production d'énergie renouvelable, ainsi que le premier partenariat public-privé mis en œuvre par le pays. Le site du projet est situé à 30 km au nord de N’Djamena, sur un terrain de 100 ha attribué par décret présidentiel. Le projet comprend la conception, le financement, la construction, l'exploitation et le transfert d'une centrale photovoltaïque de 28 MWe et d'une infrastructure d'interconnexion. L'installation comprend des modules photovoltaïques montés sur des suiveurs solaires à un axe, des onduleurs et des transformateurs élévateurs. L'infrastructure d'interconnexion comprend une ligne aérienne de transport d’électricité à double circuit de 33kV d’une longueur de 18 km, deux transformateurs élévateurs de 33/90kV à la sous-station de Lamadji et un système de stabilisation du réseau avec une batterie de 8 MW. Le projet est structuré comme un producteur d'électricité indépendant et sera financé principalement par des investissements privés. Il offre une occasion d'améliorer l'accès à l'énergie au Tchad, notamment en développant son potentiel solaire naturel. En outre, il créera un précédent pour les PPPs dans le pays et offrira une possibilité de reproduction pour d'autres projets d'énergie solaire dans la région du Sahel dans le cadre de l’Initiative Desert to Power. La construction de la centrale devrait commencer au cours du premier trimestre de 2020 et l’exploitation, démarrer 12 mois plus tard. Les investisseurs privés posséderont pour une période de 25 ans la centrale, dont la propriété sera transférée après à la Société nationale d’électricité (SNE). L'infrastructure d'interconnexion (y compris le système de batterie) sera transférée à la SNE après la construction et la mise en service.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project aims to provide a long-term sustainable, reliable and competitive source of renewable energy to the Chadian electricity distribution network and replace expensive diesel based generation currently used as baseload. It also contributes to developing the legal framework and standards for privately financed infrastructure projects as well as strengthening the institutional capacity to undertake such projects. As such, the project is paving the way for the development of future sustainable energy projects and further private investment in the country’s much needed infrastructure.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet vise à fournir une source d'énergie renouvelable durable, fiable et compétitive à long terme au réseau de distribution d'électricité tchadien et à remplacer la production onéreuse à base de gasoil actuellement utilisé comme combustible de base. Il contribue également à l'élaboration du cadre juridique et des normes applicables aux projets d'infrastructure à financement privé, ainsi qu'au renforcement de la capacité institutionnelle d'entreprendre de tels projets. En tant que tel, le projet ouvre la voie au développement de futurs projets d’énergie durable et à la poursuite des investissements privés dans les infrastructures indispensables du pays.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project will help build sustainability in the electricity sector in Chad by reducing production costs; will increase installed capacity in the country and contribute 10% of the energy supplied to the interconnected system (the equivalent of 25,000 customers). It will significantly increase the country generation capacity and displace 60 GWh of high cost diesel based generation thereby reducing government subsidies to the company, particularly since the peak facilityproduction is concomitant with the peak demand. The project will also diversify the energy mix by introducing renewable energies into a thermal production system based on fossil fuels; which will reduce carbon emissions by 38,000 tCO2 per year, in accordance with the country's commitments.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet contribuera à construire la durabilité dans le secteur électrique au Tchad en réduisant les coûts de production ; augmentera la puissance installée dans le pays et contribuera pour 10% de l’énergie fournie au système interconnecté (l’équivalent de 25 000 clients). Il augmentera considérablement la capacité de production du pays et mettra un terme à la production de 60 GWh d’électricité à base de gasoil à un coût élevé, ce qui réduira les subventions gouvernementales versées à la société, d'autant plus que la production des installations de pointe correspond à la demande de pointe. Le projet permettra également la diversification du mix énergétique par l’introduction des énergies renouvelables dans un système de production thermique basé sur des combustibles fossiles ; ce qui permettra de réduire les émissions carbones de 38 000 tCO2 par année, conformément engagements du pays.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="TD-COA-33" type="10"><narrative>Djermaya CDEB Energy -DCE</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-09-26" type="1"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PESR2</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Matthieu Benoit JALARD</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, PESR2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>m.jalard@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="TD"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2433630"/><name><narrative>Djermaya</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>12.40071 15.05436</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23230"><narrative>Solar energy</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.6" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

The project will leverage potential of untapped value chains on the continent and support scaling of integrated and continental business pipeline models. Leveraging on Grow Africa’s network of 200 agribusiness companies across Africa, AABE will work a minimum of 50 anchor companies and agricultural SMEs to strengthen their business case and identify commercial investment opportunities in strategic commodity value chains. This technical assistance will support private sector development in agribusiness and agriculture SMEs sectors consistent with FAPA’s key objectives. Resources will be directly channeled to Grow Africa Secretariat at NEPAD, as the implementing agency, with the African Development Bank. Thus, the Project will enable inclusive financing within the agribusiness sector and develop market access for SMEs and smallholder farmers. The total cost for the project is US $1,225,590 of which NEPAD will be contributing US $225,590 of the total budget and AfDB/FAPA contributing US $1 million.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'African Agri-Business Engine (AABE) sera une plateforme de PME agricoles et agroalimentaires dirigée par Grow Africa pour aider la Banque africaine de développement (BAD) à mettre en œuvre sa stratégie "Nourrir l'Afrique".

The project aims to leverage the AfDB’s Partial Credit Guarantee (PCG) to catalyze the deployment of European pension and asset management funds into Africa’s agriculture sector in line with the Bank’s Feed Africa strategic priority. This will be achieved by using the PCG to back agri-linked notes (the Notes) of up to EUR100M to be issued by a structured finance company. The Mauritius-based company will leverage the Bank's PCG to catalyse additional financing from international pension funds through an Agri-linked Note to facilitate investments in sustainable farmland and agricultural infrastructure across Africa. It will be authorized to operate in various African countries through a special purpose entity that will include two other active portfolios worth €62.5 million. The proceeds of the Notes together with two other pools of assets worth about USD75M will be pooled in a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) to create a capital pool for ultimate investment in a diversified portfolio of agricultural farmland assets and related agricultural infrastructure in Africa. These assets will then be put at the disposal of selected agribusiness operators seeking expansion opportunities across the continent.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est une garantie partielle de crédit (PCG) de 100 millions d'euros à la société de financement structuré, African Agriculture Impact Investments Ltd (Maurice), pour développer l'agriculture commerciale en Afrique.

Pour ce faire, le PCG sera utilisé pour garantir des billets agro-liés d'un montant maximum de 100 millions d'euros qui seront émis par une société de financement structuré. Cette société, basée à Maurice, utilisera le PCG de la Banque pour catalyser des financements supplémentaires de fonds de pension internationaux par le biais d'une note agri-liée afin de faciliter les investissements dans les terres agricoles durables et les infrastructures agricoles en Afrique. Elle sera autorisée à opérer dans divers pays africains par l'intermédiaire d'une entité ad hoc qui comprendra deux autres portefeuilles actifs d'une valeur de 62,5 millions d'euros.

UDBL is a Development Financial Institution (DFI), which is wholly owned by the Government of Uganda and has been in existence since 1972. Its mandate is to intervene in SMEs and priority sectors in line with the Government’s (GoU) development aspirations. The proposed package provides the Bank an opportunity to play a signalling role for other investors. The provision of USD 20 Million LOC to be made available as a senior loan, along with a Technical Assistance facility will enable UDBL fully play its role as a national development financial institution in charge of implementing the country’s national development strategy and vision of being a middle-income country by 2040. Target sectors are enablers of economic growth such as agriculture, light manufacturing, tourism health and education. On-lending under the proposed sovereign-guaranteed LOC is expected to benefit infrastructure projects and SMEs operating in a variety of sectors, such as agriculture, light manufacturing, health, tourism and education mainly with the objective of alleviating poverty in line with the country’s National Development Plan (NDP.2).</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention consiste à octroyer à Uganda Development Bank Limited (UDBL) : i) une ligne de crédit à garantie souveraine aux fins de rétrocession aux projets dans différents secteurs en Ouganda : et ii) une ligne de crédit au titre du programme dédié aux PME afin de financer les PME et de tirer parti d’une assistance technique (AT) pouvant atteindre 1 million de $ EU dont les composantes consisteront, notamment à renforcer les capacités de gestion du risque de crédit et développer les processus d’UDBL, à améliorer la qualité des prêts et la gouvernance d’entreprise, ainsi qu’à renforcer les capacités de suivi des résultats en matière de développement de l’institution. UDBL est une institution de financement du développement (IFD) appartenant entièrement à l’État ougandais. Elle existe depuis 1972 et a pour mission d’intervenir dans les PME et les secteurs prioritaires conformément aux aspirations de développement de l’État ougandais (GoU). Le paquet proposé offre à UDBL une occasion de jouer un rôle de signal pour d’autres investisseurs. L’octroi d’une LC de 20 millions de $ EU sous forme de prêt privilégié, parallèlement à une facilité d’assistance technique, permettra à la banque de jouer pleinement son rôle d’institution nationale de financement du développement, responsable de la mise en œuvre de la stratégie de développement national et de la vision consistant pour l’Ouganda à devenir un pays à revenu intermédiaire à l’horizon 2040. Les secteurs cibles, à savoir l’agriculture, l’industrie manufacturière légère, le tourisme, la santé et l’éducation, sont de nature à stimuler la croissance économique. La rétrocession des ressources de la LC à garantie souveraine proposée devrait profiter aux projets d’infrastructure et aux PME qui interviennent dans plusieurs secteurs, notamment l’agriculture, l’industrie manufacturière, la santé, le tourisme et l’éducation, essentiellement afin de faire reculer la pauvreté conformément au Plan de développement national (PDN 2) du pays.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">Uganda Development Bank Limited (UDBL), the country’s premier development financial institution’s duty is to help accelerate Uganda’s development by supporting small &amp; medium enterprises (SMEs) and large-scale development projects in the various key growth sectors, thereby, address the financing gap to SMEs and Infrastructure projects in the country.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Uganda Development Bank Limited (UDBL) – première institution de financement de développement de l’Ouganda – a vocation à aider à accélérer le développement du pays en finançant les petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) et les grands projets de développement dans les différents secteurs de croissance clés, comblant ainsi le déficit de financement des PME et des projets d’infrastructure dans le pays.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">UDBL intervenes in sectors such as agriculture and agro processing, hotel and tourism, education, health and manufacturing among others. The project will enhance private sector development, by demonstrating the viability of investing in growth-oriented SMEs. Increased revenue by the beneficiaries at sub-project level will lead to incremental tax accrual to the Ugandan government of Uganda. The facility will also support financial inclusion, gender and social benefits as well as fiscal impacts. The investment will therefore contribute to providing quality and low-cost education and health services to Ugandan communities thus narrowing down the existing widening social and income gaps in the country. It had since inception to December 2017 facilitated over UGX 241.6 bln worth of loans and created/retained over 17,016 jobs of which 16,851 were new.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">UDBL intervient dans des secteurs tels que l’agriculture et l’agro-industrie, l’hôtellerie et le tourisme, l’éducation, la santé et l’industrie manufacturière.

L’accroissement des revenus des bénéficiaires au niveau des sousprojets se traduira par une augmentation des recettes fiscales de l’État ougandais. La facilité appuiera également l’inclusion financière, la génération d’avantages pour les femmes et sociaux, et améliorera les impacts budgétaires.

Working through a streamlined platform and a highly specialized team, the Facility seeks to alleviate the barrier of lack of access to debt financing faced by small scale renewable energy projects, thus increasing the flow of capital to the energy sector in Africa. FEI will support projects with financing needs that are less than what is currently required to justify the high transaction costs associated with the lending platforms of most DFIs, and financing requirements that are not adequately satisfied by local commercial banks due to a number of factors including risk perception and the dearth of suitable financing models (e.g. receivable-based financing). It will focus on providing senior and mezzanine debt financing to small scale projects (off-grid, mini-grid and on-grid) with total costs not exceeding USD 30 million. The Facility will operate with loan structures and pricing commensurate with risk profiles of projects and on a platform conducive to the efficient execution of deals, in accordance with evolving market needs. Unlike other debt funds proposed in the market, the Facility constitutes a direct lending platform. Although FEI does not seek to deploy funds through local financial intermediaries, through its demonstration effect and financial performance, FEI may support the continent’s local commercial banks and other financial intermediaries in their efforts to “bank” the sector.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet couvre la conception, la structuration et le fonctionnement d’un fonds de créances de 500 millions d’USD, à savoir la Facilité pour l’inclusion énergétique (FIE). La FIE appuiera les projets dont les besoins en financements sont d’un niveau inférieur à ce qui est actuellement requis pour justifier les coûts de transaction élevés liés aux plateformes de prêt de la plupart des institutions de financement du développement, et dont les besoins en financements ne sont pas suffisamment couverts par les banques commerciales locales en raison d’un certain nombre de facteurs, y compris la perception des risques et le manque de modèles de financement appropriés (tels que les financements fondés sur les comptes débiteurs). Elle privilégiera la fourniture de créances de rang privilégié et de financements mezzanine pour les projets de petite taille (systèmes hors-réseau, mini-réseaux et systèmes raccordés au réseau), à un coût total ne dépassant pas 30 millions d’USD. À travers une plateforme rationalisée et avec une équipe hautement spécialisée, la Facilité entend s’attaquer au manque d’accès aux fonds de créances pour les projets d’énergie renouvelable de petite taille, contribuant ainsi à l’augmentation des flux de capitaux vers le secteur de l’énergie en Afrique. La Facilité fonctionnera avec des structures de prêt et des mécanismes de tarification tenant compte des profils de risque des projets et en se basant sur une plateforme concourant à l’exécution efficiente des transactions, conformément à l’évolution des besoins sur le marché. Contrairement à d’autres mécanismes de financement par le biais de fonds de créances proposés sur le marché, la Facilité constitue une plateforme d’emprunt directe. Bien que la FIE ne vise pas à déployer des fonds par le biais d’intermédiaires financiers locaux, elle pourrait, à travers son effet de démonstration et sa performance financière, appuyer les banques commerciales locales et d’autres intermédiaires financiers du continent dans leurs efforts pour « bancariser » le secteur de l’énergie.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">FEI seeks to address these market failures and increase the flow of debt capital to small scale energy projects by deploying innovative investment strategies, specialized financial products, and streamlined due diligence procedures across Africa’s energy sector value chain.

Although streamlined, the Facility’s platform will ensure compliance with acceptable credit criteria and the social and environmental considerations of its investors.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La FIE vise à s’attaquer aux insuffisances du marché et à augmenter les flux de fonds de créances ciblant les projets d’énergie de petite taille, à travers le déploiement de stratégies d’investissement innovantes, de produits financiers spécialisés et de procédures rationalisées de contrôle préalable le long de la chaîne de valeur du secteur de l’énergie en Afrique. La Facilité vise à réduire les délais de traitement et les coûts de contrôle préalable connexes des projets de petite taille. Bien qu’elle soit rationalisée, la plateforme de la Facilité permettra de garantir le respect de critères de crédit acceptables ainsi que des dispositions environnementales et sociales pertinentes de ses investisseurs.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">FEI is expected to assist in realizing ~50 small scale energy projects, with individual investments of between USD 5 and 20 million, thus increasing electricity generation in Africa by at least 300 MW and energy connections by a minimum of 2 million households, including off-grid. While providing access to power, projects financed by FEI will contribute to local, economic development through job creation and increased productivity, resulting in improved livelihoods and quality of life.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La FIE devrait contribuer à l’exécution d’environ 50 projets de production d’énergie à petite échelle, à hauteur d’investissements oscillant entre 5 millions d’USD et 20 millions d’USD par projet, contribuant ainsi à l’augmentation de la production d’électricité en Afrique, à hauteur d’au moins 300 MW, ainsi qu’à l’alimentation en électricité d’au moins 2 millions de ménages, y compris hors-réseau. Tout en garantissant l’accès à l’énergie, les projets financés par la FIE contribueront au développement économique sur le plan local, à travers la création d’emplois et l’augmentation de la productivité, avec à la clé l’amélioration des moyens d’existence ainsi que de la qualité de vie.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>FEI-ONGRID LP </narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-CTF" type="40"><narrative>Clean Technology Fund</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2016-12-13" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-12-04" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PINS</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Kenneth Murithi MARANGU</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Equity Portfolio Management Off., PINS</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>k.marangu@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="6255146"/><name><narrative>Africa</narrative></name><administrative code="864" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="12885" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>7.1881 21.09375</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="4"/><feature-designation code="RGN"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2253354"/><name><narrative>Dakar</narrative></name><administrative code="2636" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="25319" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>14.6937 -17.44406</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLC"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="993800"/><name><narrative>Johannesburg</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-26.2023 28.0436</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLA"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="184742"/><name><narrative>Nairobi</narrative></name><administrative code="51328" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="51360" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-1.28333 36.83333</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23111"><narrative>Energy sector policy, planning and administration</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

La ligne de crédit pour le financement du commerce aura une échéance de 3,5 ans. Le mécanisme de financement du commerce proposé renforcera la capacité de la TDB à fournir des services de confirmation de transactions aux banques d’émission dans la région du COMESA et au-delà. Il viendra s’ajouter à l’appui fourni par la BAD à la TDB sur le front du financement à moyen terme de gros projets.

On s’attend à ce qu’environ 33% de ces mécanismes soient utilisés pour la facilitation des transactions dans les pays en situation de fragilité.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>PTA Bank Eastern and Southern African Trade and Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-07-17" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2022-02-28" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2023-02-27" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2023-02-27" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>RDGE</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Manners CHUMA</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Management Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>m.chuma@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="425378"/><name><narrative>Bujumbura</narrative></name><administrative code="40543" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="40577" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-3.3822 29.3644</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLX"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="24030"><narrative>Formal sector financial intermediaries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.12.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Microfinance and financial services -

CRDB was established in 1996 and listed on the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange in 2009. It is the second largest bank in Tanzania in terms of overall loans, assets and customer deposits as at Q4 2020.  It is therefore a leading bank in the country and has a subsidiary in Burundi. The project includes a USD 125,000 technical assistance (TA) grant from the Women's Enterprise Finance Initiative (We-Fi) under the Affirmative Action for African Women in Finance (AFAWA) programme.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur une dette subordonnée de 7 ans de 50 millions d’USD à l’attention de CRDB Bank PLC (CRDB), dotée d’une période de grâce de 5 ans, et une ligne de crédit (LDC) de 10 millions d’USD. La CRDB a été créée en 1996 et inscrite à la cote à la bourse de Dar es-Salaam en 2009. Il s’agit de la deuxième plus grande banque de Tanzanie en termes globaux de prêts, d'actifs et de dépôts de la clientèle au quatrième trimestre de 2020.  C'est donc une banque de premier plan dans le pays, et elle possède une filiale au Burundi. Le projet inclut une subvention d'assistance technique (AT) de 125 000 d’USD de l'Initiative de financement des femmes entrepreneurs (We-Fi) dans le cadre du programme de discrimination positive en matière de financement pour les femmes d'Afrique (AFAWA).</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The subordinated debt is expected to help CRDB strengthen its current capital base as it seeks to expand its operations in the Central and East African region (Burundi, Democratic Republic of Congo and Kenya) mainly in the agricultural and manufacturing sectors. The CDL should exclusively target CRDB loans to eligible women-owned/led enterprises. The objective of the TA is to ensure the sustainability, growth and profitability of women-owned/led enterprises while incorporating a monitoring and evaluation framework, and thus guiding effective market issuance of CRDB's women's product Malkia. Specifically, the technical assistance will support CRDB's strategy to increase its current portfolio of loans to women and SMEs to USD 60 million from the current size of USD 6 million, as well as to increase the number of women-owned/led commercial borrowers to 5,200 from 1,500 over the next five years.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La dette subordonnée devrait aider la CRDB à renforcer sa base de capital actuelle alors qu'elle cherche à étendre ses opérations dans la région de l'Afrique centrale et de l’Est (Burundi, République Démocratique du Congo et Kenya) principalement dans les secteurs agricole et manufacturier. La LDC devrait exclusivement cibler les prêts de la CRDB destinés à des entreprises éligibles détenues/dirigées par des femmes. L'objectif de l'AT est d'assurer la durabilité, la croissance et la rentabilité des entreprises dirigées/appartenant à des femmes tout en intégrant un cadre de suivi et d'évaluation, et ainsi guider une émission efficace sur le marché du produit Malkia de CRDB, consacré aux femmes. Plus précisément, l'assistance technique soutiendra la stratégie de la CRDB consistant à porter son portefeuille actuel de prêts aux femmes et aux PME à 60 millions USD par rapport à la taille actuelle de 6 millions USD, ainsi qu'à augmenter le nombre d'emprunteurs commerciaux dirigés/détenues par des femmes à 5 200, contre 1 500 au cours des cinq prochaines années.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The main beneficiary is CRDB. The proposed facility will contribute to the operations of the CRDB in several ways: (i) the bank's presence in the region and thus its access to businesses in several countries will foster regional integration; (ii) its business volumes will generate higher profits and thus more direct and indirect taxes; iii) its sectoral focus on agriculture (and its value chains) and manufacturing will be strengthened, thus contributing to food security, value addition, access to climate adaptation technologies and improved incomes for farmers; and iv) it will provide better access to finance for women entrepreneurs through the portfolio guarantee and credit line.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le principal bénéficiaire est la CRDB. La facilité proposée contribuera aux opérations de la CRDB de diverses manières : i) la présence de la banque dans la région et donc son accès aux entreprises de plusieurs pays favoriseront l'intégration régionale ; ii) ses volumes d'affaires produiront des bénéfices plus élevés et donc plus d'impôts directs et indirects ; iii) sa concentration sectorielle sur l'agriculture (et ses chaînes de valeur) et l'industrie manufacturière sera renforcée, contribuant ainsi à la sécurité alimentaire, , à la création de valeur ajoutée, à l’accès aux technologies d’adaptation au climat et à l'amélioration des revenus des agriculteurs ; et iv) elle offrira un meilleur accès au financement aux femmes entrepreneures grâce à la garantie de portefeuille et à la ligne de crédit.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>CRDB Bank Limited</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2021-09-08" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2021-12-23" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COUG</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Mpanga Juliet BYARUHANGA</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Fin.

Under this program, DAL Group aims to reduce the nation’s dependence on imports and increase its capacity to source and produce raw material locally. In its strategy DAL Group aims to strengthen its integrated value chain model, adopt the latest technology, and expand its food processing and packaging capacity. This will enhance the company’s capacity to locally source and produce raw materials and increase its market mix. The investment complements other non-lending interventions of the African Development Bank Group in Sudan. By partnering with DAL Group, the Bank will leverage on Sudan’s high agricultural potential as well as the experience and resilience of a private enterprise with a proven track record and deep knowledge of the country’s unique business environment. By strengthening its integrated value chain model, adopting the latest technologies, and expanding its food processing and packaging capacity, the DAL Group will enhance its ability to source and produce raw material locally and increase the range of its product offering.

Il s'agit du premier prêt au secteur privé de la Banque africaine de développement au Soudan. Le prêt de la Banque contribuera au programme d'investissement de DAL Group, qui fait partie de l'initiative de croissance stratégique de la société pour le Soudan et la région de l'Afrique de l'Est. Dans le cadre de ce programme, DAL Group vise à réduire la dépendance du pays vis-à-vis des importations et à accroître sa capacité à s'approvisionner et à produire des matières premières sur place. Dans sa stratégie, DAL Group vise à renforcer son modèle de chaîne de valeur intégrée, à adopter les dernières technologies et à développer sa capacité de transformation et de conditionnement des aliments. Cela permettra à l'entreprise d'améliorer sa capacité à s'approvisionner et à produire localement des matières premières et d'accroître sa part de marché. L'investissement complète d'autres interventions du Groupe de la Banque africaine de développement au Soudan qui ne sont pas des prêts. En s'associant avec le Groupe DAL, la Banque tirera parti du potentiel agricole élevé du Soudan ainsi que de l'expérience et de la résilience d'une entreprise privée ayant fait ses preuves et connaissant parfaitement l'environnement commercial unique du pays. En renforçant son modèle de chaîne de valeur intégrée, en adoptant les technologies les plus récentes et en développant ses capacités de transformation et de conditionnement des aliments, le DAL Group améliorera sa capacité à s'approvisionner et à produire des matières premières localement et élargira la gamme de ses produits.

The financial package comprises of a senior loan of US$10 million and an associated facility of ZAR 1.4 billion (about US$$97 million) with an 8-year tenor, including 6-month grace period. SA Taxi is an important service provider to South Africa’s minibus commuter transit segment, which is commonly referred to as its “taxi” industry. The demand for commuter transit minibuses is strong, as approximately 69 percent of public transport commuters opt for this transport mode (compared to 20 percent for bus and 11 percent for train). The country’s 16-seater minibus taxis do approximately 15 million commuter trips per day, which services nearly 40 percent of the population. SA Taxi currently has 30,000 customers who have financed on average 1.2 minibuses. However, 90% of SA Taxi clients do not qualify for the formal banking sector. With the funding, SMEs will acquire fuel efficient, environmentally-friendly, quality vehicles (minibus taxis) to be used for mass transit across South Africa. The Project will catalyze funding for approximately 8,000 commuter transit vehicles, or nearly 7% of the current need in the country, thereby supporting nearly 600,000 safer daily trips. The asset-backed financing operation is expected to attract funding interest from international commercial banks for the benefit of South Africa’s mass transit sector.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet consiste à soutenir SA Taxi Development Finance Proprietary Limited (SATDF), une société de financement du transport de masse en Afrique du Sud, qui rétrocède des financements à de petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) qui n’ont pas d’autres moyens d’y avoir accès. L'enveloppe financière comprend un prêt de premier rang de 10 millions de dollars US et une facilité associée de 1,4 milliard de ZAR (environ 97 millions de dollars US) d'une durée de 8 ans, y compris un délai de grâce de 6 mois. SA Taxi est un important fournisseur de services pour le segment des minibus de transport en commun en Afrique du Sud, que l'on appelle communément son industrie du "taxi". La demande de minibus est forte, car environ 69 % des usagers des transports publics optent pour ce mode de transport (contre 20 % pour le bus et 11 % pour le train). Les minibus-taxis de 16 places du pays effectuent environ 15 millions de déplacements par jour, ce qui représente près de 40 % de la population. SA Taxi compte actuellement 30 000 clients qui ont financé en moyenne 1,2 minibus. Cependant, 90 % des clients de SA Taxi ne remplissent pas les conditions pour accéder au système bancaire formel. Ce financement permet aux PME concernées d’acheter des véhicules de qualité, économes en carburant et peu pollueurs (minibus-taxis) qui seront utilisés pour les navetteurs en Afrique du Sud. Le projet stimulera le financement d’environ 8 000 véhicules de transport en commun, soit près de 7 % du besoin actuel du pays, ce qui permettra d’assurer près de 600 000 navettes quotidiennes en toute sécurité. L'opération de financement adossé à des actifs devrait susciter l'intérêt des banques commerciales internationales pour le financement du secteur des transports en commun en Afrique du Sud.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project involves funding one of South Africa’s primary financial solutions providers to the commuter transit sector to enable on-lending to Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs).

Daily commuters will benefit from improved conditions including safety. The Project will result in lower carbon emissions and other environmental benefits. Government revenues –through VAT and income tax—are expected to surpass the USD 200m mark. The operation supports sustainable urbanization and is distinctly pro-poor.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Près de 6 700 PME bénéficieront d’un meilleur accès au financement et d’une rentabilité plus forte. 20 % des bénéficiaires directes sont des femmes et 16 % des jeunes (de moins de 35 ans). 57 000 emplois seront créés ou soutenus au niveau des PME bénéficiaires. Ceux qui font quotidiennement la navette voyageront dans de meilleures conditions, notamment de sécurité. Le projet induira une baisse des émissions de carbone et comportera d’autres avantages environnementaux. Les revenus de l’État – au titre de la TVA et de l’impôt sur le revenu – devraient dépasser le seuil de 200 millions de dollars EU.

Founded in 1967, ETG has over time become a global player in the management of the supply chain and the processing of agricultural products. ETG is active in the marketing of more than 25 raw materials in 26 African countries and is currently the largest trader of sesame seeds and cashew nuts in the world, the largest fertilizer importer in Africa and one of the largest maize traders on the continent. The proposed facility represents an opportunity to support a well-established and professionally run commodities company in sub-Saharan Africa. By investing in this company, the Bank will play a countercyclical role, complementing existing public and private sector initiatives to support positive change in the sector. This facility will benefit the African subsidiaries of the Group, particularly those operating in South Africa, Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Côte d'Ivoire, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Nigeria, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Togo, Zambia and Zimbabwe. The bulk of the facility (90%) will finance the purchase of crops from African farmers, including pulses, cashew nuts, maize, sesame seeds, oilseeds, coffee and cotton. The remaining 10% will be used to import fertilizer.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet porte sur l’octroi d’une Facilité de financement des matières premières agricoles, à concurrence de 100 millions de dollars EU et pour une durée de 2 ans (renouvelable pour une autre période de 2 ans), à Export Trading Company Group Mauritius. Créé en 1967, ETG est devenu au fil du temps un acteur mondial de la gestion de la chaîne logistique et de la transformation des produits agricoles.

La facilité proposée constitue une occasion favorable pour appuyer une société bien établie et gérée de manière professionnelle en Afrique subsaharienne. En investissant dans cette entreprise, la Banque jouera un rôle contra-cyclique en complément de ses interventions en cours dans les secteurs public et secteur privé visant à appuyer des changements positifs dans le secteur. La facilité profitera aux filiales africaines du Groupe, en particulier celles opérant en Afrique du Sud, au Bénin, au Burkina Faso, au Burundi, en Côte d’Ivoire, en Éthiopie, au Kenya, au Malawi, au Mali, au Mozambique, au Nigeria, en Ouganda, au Rwanda, en Tanzanie, au Togo, en Zambie et au Zimbabwe.

TDB was founded in 1985 as a multilateral, treaty-based financial institution with international immunities and privileges. It was conceived as the financing arm of the Preferential Trade Area for the Eastern and Southern African States, which was later transformed into Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA). TDB is a development finance institution (DFI), with whom the AfDB has an existing relationship spanning over 20 years. The facility is part of a US$ 300 million funding package to Eastern and Southern African Trade Development Bank (TDB), comprising US$ 50 million Trade Finance Line of Credit (TFLoC) and US$ 50 million long-term Line of Credit (LoC). The RPA will be for 3 years and the tenor of the underlying transactions will not exceed 2 years. The RPA component of this facility package provides a means to crowd in other private sector sources to provide financial support to countries where AfDB is constrained to intervene directly. The facility will be used to secure obligations arising from TF and trade related instruments originated within the COMESA member states such as letters of credit, bank guarantees, avalized obligations from documentary collections, bankers’ acceptance, pre and post import financing, factoring and forfeiture among others. The RPA facility will also provide a capital relief to TDB, which is crucial in cushioning its investment grade status and effectively enhance its profile as a confirming bank for African Issuing Banks and making its confirmation acceptable to international counter parties, allowing TDB to play a meaningful role in facilitating trade on the African continent. This is in line with the Bank’s strategy to support regional financial institutions to play a meaningful role in African development.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur un accord de participation aux risques (RPA) non financé de 200 millions de dollars EU à la Eastern and Southern African Trade Development Bank (TDB). La TDB a été fondée en 1985 en vertu d’un traité en tant qu’institution financière multilatérale bénéficiant d’immunités et privilèges internationaux. Elle a été conçue comme le bras financier à la Zone d’échanges préférentiels pour les États de l’Afrique de l’Est et de l’Afrique australe, qui est devenue par la suite le Marché commun d’Afrique de l’Est et d’Afrique australe (COMESA). La TDB est une institution de financement du développement avec laquelle la Banque collabore depuis plus de 20 ans. Cette facilité s’inscrit dans le cadre d’un mécanisme de financement de 300 millions de dollars EU à la Eastern and Southern African Trade Development Bank (TDB) englobant par ailleurs, une ligne de crédit pour le financement du commerce (TFLoC) de 50 millions de dollars EU et une ligne de crédit à long terme (LoC) de 50 millions de dollars EU. L’accord de participation aux risques sera en vigueur pendant 3 ans, et l’échéance des transactions sous-jacentes ne dépassera pas 2 ans. La composante RPA du mécanisme proposé permet d’attirer d’autres sources du secteur privé en faveur des pays où la BAD n’est pas en mesure d’intervenir directement. Ce mécanisme servira à garantir les obligations découlant des instruments de financement du commerce et des instruments liés au commerce mis au point dans les États membres du COMESA tels que les lettres de crédit, les garanties bancaires, les obligations avalisées découlant de recouvrements documentaires, les acceptations bancaires, le crédit avant et après l’importation, l’affacturage et la cession de créances, etc. L’accord de participation aux risques permettra également d’atténuer les pressions sur le capital de la TDB, ce qui est déterminant pour préserver sa bonne cote de crédit, renforcer efficacement son statut de banque de confirmation pour les banques d’émission africaines et inciter les contreparties internationales à accepter ses confirmations. La TDB pourra ainsi jouer un rôle majeur dans la facilitation du commerce en Afrique, ce qui cadre avec la stratégie de la Banque visant à aider les institutions financières régionales à participer pleinement au développement de l’Afrique.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The ultimate objective of the proposed financing package is to provide support to TDB with trade and project finance funding to on lend to projects in high impact sectors including infrastructure, energy, manufacturing, agribusiness and healthcare in the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) region. The overarching objective of this financing facility is to enhance the risk bearing capacity of the TDB, to be able to provide trade finance confirmation to issuing banks in its regional member countries, especially those in transition states.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif ultime visé est de fournir à la TDB des ressources pour le financement du commerce et le financement de gros projets aux fins de rétrocession pour la mise en œuvre de projets dans des secteurs à impact élevé tels que les infrastructures, l’énergie, la fabrication, l’agro-industrie et les soins de santé dans la région du Marché commun d’Afrique de l’Est et d’Afrique australe (COMESA). Le mécanisme financier proposé vise à renforcer la capacité à supporter les risques de la TDB, pour qu’elle soit en mesure de fournir des services de confirmation de transactions aux banques d’émission dans ses pays membres régionaux, en particulier les États en transition.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">It will benefit no less than 43 financial institutions operating in over 15 regional member countries, catalysing up to $2 billion worth of trade over the three-year period.

Le financement du commerce extérieur stimulera les activités commerciales d'import-export des entreprises locales et des PME, tandis que la composante de financement de projet soutiendra le développement des infrastructures régionales, toutes cruciales pour la réalisation des objectifs stratégiques de la Banque dans le cadre des High 5.

It is expected that approximately 33% of the facilities will be used towards facilitating trade finance transactions in countries experiencing fragility.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Il bénéficiera à pas moins de 43 institutions financières opérant dans plus de 15 pays membres régionaux, catalysant jusqu'à 2 milliards de dollars de commerce sur la période de trois ans. Le financement renforcera également le commerce intra-africain et favorisera l'intégration régionale. Le financement du commerce extérieur stimulera les activités commerciales d'import-export des entreprises locales et des PME, tandis que la composante de financement de projet soutiendra le développement des infrastructures régionales, toutes cruciales pour la réalisation des objectifs stratégiques de la Banque dans le cadre des High 5. On s’attend à ce qu’environ 33% de ces mécanismes soient utilisés pour la facilitation des transactions dans les pays en situation de fragilité.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>PTA Bank Eastern and Southern African Trade and Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-07-17" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2022-02-28" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>RDGE</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Manners CHUMA</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Management Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>m.chuma@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="425378"/><name><narrative>Bujumbura</narrative></name><administrative code="40543" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="40577" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-3.3822 29.3644</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLX"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="24030"><narrative>Formal sector financial intermediaries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.12.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Microfinance and financial services - Microfinance and financial services</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><default-flow-type code="21"/><default-finance-type code="421"/><default-tied-status code="5"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2022-02-28"/><period-end iso-date="2022-05-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2022-02-28">9069208.947500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2022-05-28"/><period-end iso-date="2022-08-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2022-05-28">9069208.947500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2022-08-28"/><period-end iso-date="2022-11-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2022-08-28">9069208.947500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2022-11-28"/><period-end iso-date="2023-02-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2022-11-28">9069208.947500</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000130020982"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2022-02-28"/><value value-date="2022-02-28">36276835.79</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>Pta Bank Eastern And Southern African</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="421"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-Z1-HAA-094" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/en/projects-and-operations/P-Z1-HAA-094" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/all/libraries/pdf.js/web/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.afdb.org%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments%2Fprojects-and-operations%2Fpsn_comesa_regional_trade_and_project_finance_en.pdf#page=1&amp;zoom=auto,-14,848" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/all/libraries/pdf.js/web/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.afdb.org%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments%2Fenvironmental-and-social-assessments%2Feastern_and_southern_african_trade_and_development_bank_esms_policy_january_2019.pdf#page=1&amp;zoom=auto,-13,792" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Environmental Study</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

AWB SA is a Moroccan banking group and a Pan-African multinational based in Casablanca, born of the merger between Banque Commerciale du Maroc founded in 1911 (private bank deemed the first in Morocco) and Wafabank in 2003. The Bank’s share of risk will be at most 50% for every transaction except for five (5) IBs from Mauritania and Guinea-Conakry (Mauritania: Banque pour le commerce et l'industrie et Banque populaire de Mauritanie || Guinea Conakry: Banque Islamique Guinée, Orabank, and Banque pour le commerce et l’industrie) where coverage may be up to 75%. Under this Agreement, AWB will place TF resources at the disposal of local banks in Africa and guarantee their financing commitments by confirming their letters of credit (L/C). AfDB will then guarantee up to a maximum of 50% of the value of these transactions confirmed by AWB. This mechanism will serve to guarantee obligations arising from TF instruments such as credit confirmation letters, acceptance letters, export loans (pre-shipment), import loans, the financing of export and import bills, warranty cards, etc. The RPA ceiling will be in EUR, but related transactions can be either in EUR or USD. The duration of the mechanism will be 3 years and the maturity of each transaction cannot exceed 2 years, mindful that most transactions will be for 90 days, in line with standard practice in TF operations.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet consiste en un accord de participation aux risques (APR) non financé de 100 millions d’EUR entre la Banque africaine de développement (BAD) et Attijariwafa bank (AWB) en vertu duquel les deux banques partagent le risque de défaut sur un portefeuille de transactions commerciales éligibles initiées par des banques émettrices africaines (BE). AWB SA est un groupe bancaire et financier Marocain. Multinationale panafricaine basée à Casablanca, elle est née suite à l’opération de fusion absorption, réalisée en 2003 entre la Banque Commerciale du Maroc fondée en 1911 (banque privée considérée comme la première du Maroc) et la Wafabank. La part de risque de la Banque sera au maximum de 50% pour chaque transaction à l’exception de cinq (5) BE venant de la Mauritanie et la Guinée Conakry (Mauritanie : Banque pour le commerce et l'industrie et Banque populaire de Mauritanie || Guinée Conakry : Banque Islamique Guinée, Orabank, Banque pour le commerce et l’industrie) où la couverture peut aller jusqu’au 75%. Au titre de cet accord, AWB mettra à la disposition des banques locales africaines des ressources pour le FC et garantira ainsi leurs engagements de financement et plus précisément confirmera leurs lettres de crédits (L/C). La BAD garantira alors jusqu’à 50% maximum de la valeur de ces transactions confirmées par AWB. Ce mécanisme servira à garantir les obligations qui découlent des instruments du FC tels que les lettres de confirmation de crédit et d’acceptation, les prêts à l’exportation (avant-expédition) et les prêts à l’importation, le financement des factures d’exportation et d’importation, les bons et garanties, etc. Le plafond de l’APR sera libellé en EUR et les transactions sous-jacentes pourront être réalisées en EUR ou en $EU. La durée du mécanisme sera de 3 ans et l’échéance de chacune des transactions ne pourra excéder les 2 ans, tout en sachant que pour l’essentiel ce sera des transactions de 90 jours conformément à la pratique dans les opérations de FC.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">This RPA aims to: (i) contribute in reducing the TF deficit in Africa; (ii) promote inclusive economic growth and diversification through support for industrialisation; and (ii) increase intra-African trade and strengthen regional integration. The proposed mechanism will help meet the growing demand for TF in Africa, particularly in RMCs and States in transition, providing support to external trade in vital economic sectors like agriculture through fertiliser imports and exports. It will promote regional integration by stimulating intra-African trade and Africa’s industrialisation while ensuring imports of high value-added equipment and machines.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent Accord de Participation aux Risques a pour objectifs : (i) de contribuer à la réduction du déficit du FC en Afrique et (ii) de promouvoir la croissance économique inclusive et la diversification via le soutien à l’industrialisation et (ii) d’accroitre le commerce intra-africain et de renforcer l’intégration régionale. Le mécanisme proposé contribuera à satisfaire la demande croissante pour le FC en Afrique et en particulier dans des PRB et des Etats en transition via la fourniture d’un appui au commerce extérieur dans des secteurs économiques cruciaux tels que l’agriculture via l’importation et l’exportation des engrais. Il promouvra l’intégration régionale via la stimulation du commerce intra-africain et l’industrialisation de l’Afrique en assurant l’importation des équipements et machines à haute valeur ajoutée.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The beneficiaries of this partnership are IBs in Africa experiencing a sharp decline in their TF activities due to insufficient confirmation facilities placed at their disposal by international confirming banks (CB).

Rawbank is a banking establishment created in 2002 and owned by the Rawji family (established in Congo since 1922) through RawHolding, the group’s holding based on Mauritius Island. This project will be implemented in partnership with BADEA which, for its part, will extend an LOC with the same characteristics as the one offered by AfDB. It will be negotiated with Rawbank that a minimum percentage of 30% of the LOC be allocated to SME financing (this minimum amount of USD 4.5 million will be under the Africa SME Programme). The project should provide Rawbank with an opportunity to benefit from a technical assistance grant (in the amount of 200 000 to 300 000 USD) to provide support to local SMEs (out of which 50% women) through training, information and coaching. This programme is a continuation of the different Rawbank initiatives such as the Business Edge modules and the SME Tool Kit portal intended for SME training as well as the “Lady’s First” programme exclusively dedicated to women entrepreneurs, which provided to about 3000 women with financial services and trained 600 of them.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet consiste en l’octroi d’une ligne de crédit (LDC) de 15 millions d’USD pour une durée de 7 ans (incluant un délai de grâce de 2 ans) en faveur de Rawbank destiné au financement d’entreprises et de petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) opérant dans des secteurs en ligne avec les axes prioritaires de la Banque, tels que les infrastructures, le transport, l’industrie, l’hôtellerie, les services, la distribution et le commerce. Rawbank, est un établissement bancaire créé en 2002 et détenu par la famille Rawji (établie au Congo depuis 1922) via RawHolding, la holding du groupe basée en Ile Maurice. Ce projet sera exécuté en partenariat avec la BADEA qui octroiera de son côté une LDC présentant les mêmes caractéristiques que celle octroyée par la BAD. Il sera négocié avec la Rawbank qu’un pourcentage minimum de 30% de la LOC soit dédié au financement des PME (ce montant de 4,5 millions d’USD minimum sera sous le programme pour les PME en Afrique). Le projet devrait offrir à Rawbank l’opportunité de bénéficier d’une subvention d’assistance technique (de l’ordre de 200 à 300 mille USD) devant servir à appuyer les PME locales (dont 50% de femmes entrepreneurs) par de la formation, de l’information et du coaching. Ce programme s’inscrira dans la continuité des différentes initiatives de Rawbank tels que les modules Business Edge et le portail SME Tool Kit destinés à la formation des PME ainsi que le programme dénommé « Ladies First » exclusivement dédié aux femmes entrepreneurs qui avait permis de faire bénéficier de services financiers à environ 3000 femmes et de former 600 d’entre elles.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The LOC resources will be allocated as a priority to Rawbank to help it address its steadily rising medium- and long-term resource requirements.

The project will support the Government’s ambitions to boost the country’s social economic development programmes through increased delivery of reliable and affordable electricity. This will in turn lower the cost of doing business in the country and improve Kenya’s competitiveness in the region. The project is well also aligned with Kenya’s development programs in particular Kenya’s Vision 2030, the Medium Term Plan II and the Least Cost Power Development Plan 2009-2029.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention est relative au Projet d'énergie géothermique de Menengai. Il consiste à concevoir, construire et exploiter une centrale électrique géothermique d’une capacité de 35 MW sur le champ géothermique de Menengai, dans le Comté de Nakuru, Kenya. L’électricité produite sera transportée par le biais d’une ligne de transport 132 kV sur une distance de 13 km qui a été construite par Kenya Electricity Transmission Company Limited (KETRACO). Le projet contribuera à la réalisation des ambitions du gouvernement consistant à accélérer le programme de développement socioéconomique du pays, grâce à la fourniture accrue d’une électricité fiable et abordable.

NDB will on-lend part of the funds to its private sector corporate clients and enterprises in the various sectors of the economy, including but not limited to: the Manufacturing; Industrial; Commercial &amp; Services Sectors; Mining; Agriculture &amp; Agro-Business; Real Estate Development Enterprises; Construction; Telecommunications; Tourism; Etc. The LOC will be used to provide long-term project finance, and to finance the importation of capital/replacement equipment and machinery, which would be used to increase the productive capacities, export potentials and import substitution activities of the sub-borrowers. The loan may also be used by the Borrower to finance the re-capitalization of the balance sheet of recently privatised companies, rehabilitation and renovation, so as to, inter alia, improve the productive capacity utilization of those enterprises. Part of the LOC would be extended to entities and enterprises responsible for the provision of water supply infrastructure and services in the urban areas, municipalities and villages in the country. Projects under consideration/implementation include, but are not limited to, the expansion of the Francis town water supply infrastructure; installation of pre-paid water meters in Gaborone , drilling of boreholes for sell/rehabilitation of existing boreholes and the construction/installation of more potable water treatment and distribution facilities.

It should help meet the expected future electricity supply-demand gap. The proposed project involves the construction of (i) a natural gas fuelled power plant, near the village of Azito, (ii) a sub-station adjacent to the plant and a 225 kV transmission line to connect the power plant with an existing sub-station of the national grid in Abobo and finally (iii) a gas pipeline from Vridi to Azito following the existing right of way (ROW) of the 225 kV and 90 kV lines already in place. The project is to build, own, operate and after 20 years transfer to the State of Cote d’Ivoire, a two open-ended cycle gas turbine power generation facility with an installed capacity of 285 MW in Azito, near Abidjan. The electricity should be supplied to the private concessionaire of the national public utility service for generation, transmission, distribution, and import and export of electricity (Compagnie Ivoirienne d’Electiricité).</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet de la Centrale Electrique d’Azito vise à renforcer l'indépendance du pays vis-à-vis de l'énergie hydroélectrique et à mieux contrôler le niveau de production d'électricité.

The project involves the design, construction and operation of a combined cycle turbine plant in Côte d'Ivoire. With the start of the economic recovery in Côte d'Ivoire and the related increase in electricity demand, the CIPREL (private electricity generation company in Côte d'Ivoire) undertook, at the request of the Ivorian government, studies to define the various scenarios available to increase the capacity of the CIPREL plant through the implementation of a combined cycle turbine. The project includes the implementation of an additional 111 MW TAG (Phase IV A) and a 111 MW TAV equipped with two heat recovery steam generators, and all the rest of the related equipment of the plant (phase IV B). The electricity generated by the new TAG as well as the TAV will be evacuated through the channel of two new bays that will be built at the existing Vridi 90/225 kV substation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est relatif à la quatrième extension d’une centrale électrique de CIPREL.

Its implementation will contribute directly to the development of the electric power infrastructure of Cameroon. By constructing the 86 MW power plant, the Dibamba project will provide additional capacity to support industrial expansion and meet the increase in demand, which currently runs at 6% per annum and is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. In addition, the project provides peaking and reserve capacity, thereby addressing a critical shortage in Cameroon electricity system.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet Dibamba vise à répondre rapidement aux problèmes urgents de pannes d'électricité et de délestage (en particulier durant la saison sèche), qui ont assailli le pays et sont une contrainte pour la croissance économique durable.

La zone habitée la plus proche est le village de Doraleh, dans le voisinage du site du projet, à une douzaine de kilomètres de la ville de Djibouti, dans la direction sud-est. Le projet de construction du terminal devrait être exécuté en deux phases, à savoir: la phase 1 : dragage d’un bassin et d’une zone de mouillage d’une profondeur de 18 mètres, construction d’un quai de mouillage de porte-conteneurs, d’une longueur de 1 050 mètres, creusage et terrassement (y compris des activités de récupération des terres) pour l’aménagement d’une zone d’exploitation d’une superficie de 54 hectares ; et la phase 2 : Extension du quai de mouillage sur une longueur supplémentaire de 900 mètres, y compris les travaux de dragage correspondants et l’extension de la zone d’exploitation. Le projet comprend trois principales composantes, dont: a) les installations terrestres; b) les installations marines et c) les zones de transport.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The purpose of the project is to facilitate the importation, export and transshipment of container transported products.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet vise à faciliter l’importation, l’exportation et le transbordement des produits transportés par conteneurs.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Doraleh Container Terminal SA</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2008-09-24" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2009-11-15" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2014-04-30" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2014-04-30" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COGH</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Willy Budibunene NGANDU</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Fin.

The project also includes a request for a loan from AfDB for the installation of wind turbines in the purpose of producing 28 MW, as well as the set-up of transmission lines to provide energy to existing consumers. It will enable the country to diversify its energy grid which is currently dominated by the production of thermal energy diesel (97% of the total installed capacity). The diversification of the energy grid will ensure the stability of the network; this will result in a reduction of the frequency of outages of electricity in the country. The project will also result in the stabilization of energy tariffs due to the volatility of prices related to the importation of fossil fuels that currently represents a huge burden for the economy of the country.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet relatif au parc éolien de Cabeólica comprend la construction, l'exploitation et la mise hors service de quatre parcs éoliens sur les îles de Santiago, São Vicente, Sal et Boa Vista en République du Cap-Vert.

This line of credit to EDBE is for financing export-oriented projects in the sectors of industry, tourism and services in Egypt. It's initiated because poverty alleviation through employment generation requires considerable investment in productive sectors, particularly private-owned and export-oriented production. So, the LOC should finance sub-projects in the productive sectors and in some few service sub-sectors in Egypt. It should also support sub-projects that are private, export-oriented and produce goods for export. The sub-projects to be selected are foreign exchange earning and, in most cases, resource-based. The LOC should provide medium to long-term sub-loans to enterprises in sectors of (i) industry; (ii) tourism; and (iii) services that support exports.

Cette ligne de crédit à EDBE est destinée à financer des projets orientés vers l'exportation dans les secteurs de l'industrie, du tourisme et des services en Égypte. Il a été initié car la réduction de la pauvreté grâce à la création d'emplois nécessite des investissements considérables dans les secteurs productifs, en particulier la production privée et la production axée sur l'exportation. Ainsi, la ligne de crédit (LdC) devrait financer des sous-projets dans les secteurs productifs et dans quelques sous-secteurs de services en Égypte. Il devrait également soutenir les sous-projets qui sont privés, orientés vers l'exportation et produisent des biens pour l'exportation. Les sous-projets à sélectionner sont les recettes en devises et, dans la plupart des cas, basées sur les ressources. La LdC devrait fournir des prêts secondaires à moyen et long terme aux entreprises dans les secteurs de (i) l'industrie; (ii) le tourisme; et (iii) les services qui soutiennent les exportations. Un sous-projet sélectionné doit être financièrement viable avec un taux de rendement financier qui doit dépasser le coût d'opportunité du capital des sous-prêts plus une prime de risque.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The line of credit aims to contribute to the achievement of the following sector goals: (i) developing the country’s export sector, (ii) enhancing private sector development by supporting the SMEs, (iii) reducing poverty by creating employment and increasing production in rural areas.

Founded in 1967, ETG has over time become a global player in the management of the supply chain and the processing of agricultural products. ETG is active in the marketing of more than 25 raw materials in 26 African countries and is currently the largest trader of sesame seeds and cashew nuts in the world, the largest fertilizer importer in Africa and one of the largest maize traders on the continent. The proposed facility represents an opportunity to support a well-established and professionally run commodities company in sub-Saharan Africa. By investing in this company, the Bank will play a countercyclical role, complementing existing public and private sector initiatives to support positive change in the sector. This facility will benefit the African subsidiaries of the Group, particularly those operating in South Africa, Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Côte d'Ivoire, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Nigeria, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, Togo, Zambia and Zimbabwe. The bulk of the facility (90%) will finance the purchase of crops from African farmers, including pulses, cashew nuts, maize, sesame seeds, oilseeds, coffee and cotton. The remaining 10% will be used to import fertilizer.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet porte sur l’octroi d’une Facilité de financement des matières premières agricoles, à concurrence de 100 millions de dollars EU et pour une durée de 2 ans (renouvelable pour une autre période de 2 ans), à Export Trading Company Group Mauritius. Créé en 1967, ETG est devenu au fil du temps un acteur mondial de la gestion de la chaîne logistique et de la transformation des produits agricoles. ETG est actif dans la commercialisation de plus de 25 matières premières dans 26 pays africains et il est actuellement le plus grand négociant de graines de sésame et de noix de cajou au monde, le plus gros importateur d’engrais en Afrique et l’un des plus importants négociants de maïs sur le continent. La facilité proposée constitue une occasion favorable pour appuyer une société bien établie et gérée de manière professionnelle en Afrique subsaharienne. En investissant dans cette entreprise, la Banque jouera un rôle contra-cyclique en complément de ses interventions en cours dans les secteurs public et secteur privé visant à appuyer des changements positifs dans le secteur. La facilité profitera aux filiales africaines du Groupe, en particulier celles opérant en Afrique du Sud, au Bénin, au Burkina Faso, au Burundi, en Côte d’Ivoire, en Éthiopie, au Kenya, au Malawi, au Mali, au Mozambique, au Nigeria, en Ouganda, au Rwanda, en Tanzanie, au Togo, en Zambie et au Zimbabwe. L’essentiel de la facilité (90 %) financera l’achat de récoltes auprès des agriculteurs africains, notamment les légumineuses, les noix de cajou, le maïs, les graines de sésame, les graines oléagineuses, le café et le coton. Les 10 % restants serviront à l’importation d’engrais.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The main objective of this Soft Commodity Finance Facility (SCFF) is to support ETC Group pre and post shipment working capital requirements for its end to end agricultural value chain operations in Africa.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La Facilité de financement des matières premières agricoles (SCFF) vise à appuyer le Groupe de l’ETC dans ses efforts de mobilisation des fonds de roulement, avant et après expédition, pour toutes ses opérations de la chaîne de valeur agricole en Afrique.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The facility will not only benefit one of Africa’s oldest and largest aggregators but also allow ETC to compete on a level field with international aggregators who are able to raise inexpensive funding from international markets such as Cargill.

Par ailleurs, la SCFF offrira d’importants avantages sur le plan de l’autonomisation, avec un impact positif direct sur au moins 300 000 petits exploitants agricoles dans 13

The Government of Côte d’Ivoire plans to invest heavily in the generation, transmission and distribution segments of the electric power sector and to implement an ambitious electrification programme for 2100 villages at a rate of 700 villages per year over a three-(3) year period. The country thus intends to increase its share of renewable energy from 15% to 42% by 2021. The project comprises the design, development, operation and transfer of a 44 MW hydroelectric plant and a 3.5 km transmission line and substation to evacuate the power generated onto an existing transmission line. It is operating under a 35-year concession agreement with the Government of Côte d’Ivoire (GoCI). The transaction supporting this project is a 15-year EUR 40 million loan to Ivoire Hydro Energy SAS (IHE) (previously Ivoire Hydro Energy SA). The loan, granted under the private sector window of the African Development Bank, also aims to promote and support Ivorian private entrepreneurship, through financial support and expertise provided to the local promoter of the hydroelectric power station. The project increases the proportion of renewable energies while improving the sector’s financial viability. Its implementation comprises two main components: (i) The primary installation comprising the main dam, the water intake structure, the spillway, power plant and tailrace channel; and (ii) Related infrastructure comprising transmission lines and the interconnection substation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet d’aménagement hydroélectrique de Singrobo-Ahouaty sur le Bandama, répond à la préoccupation du gouvernement ivoirien de diversifier le mix énergétique après l’augmentation de la production d'énergie thermique de ces dernières années. Le gouvernement ivoirien prévoit en effet investir massivement dans le secteur électrique sur les segments de production, du transport et de la distribution et mettre en œuvre un ambitieux programme d’électrification de 2 100 villages en raison de 700 villages par an pendant trois (03) ans. Le pays entend ainsi porter la part d’énergies renouvelables dans sa production électrique à 42 % à l’horizon 2030, contre 15 % aujourd’hui. Le projet porte sur la construction, l'exploitation et le transfert d'une centrale hydroélectrique de 44 MW ainsi qu'une ligne de transport de 3,5 km et une sous-station pour évacuer l'électricité produite sur une ligne de transport existante. Il est exploité dans le cadre d'une convention de concession de 35 ans conclue avec le gouvernement de Côte d’Ivoire (GdCI). L’opération en appui au présent projet est un prêt de 40 millions EUR sur 15 ans à Ivoire Hydro Energy SAS (IHE) (anciennement Ivoire Hydro Energy SA). Le prêt, accordé au titre du guichet privé de la Banque africaine de développement, vise aussi à promouvoir et à soutenir l’entreprenariat privé ivoirien, à travers le soutien financier et l’expertise offerts au promoteur local de la centrale hydro-électrique. Le projet augmente la part des énergies renouvelables, tout en améliorant la viabilité financière du secteur. Sa mise en œuvre est articulée autour de deux composantes principales : (i) une installation principale comprenant le barrage principal, l’ouvrage de prise d'eau, l’évacuateur des crues, la centrale électrique et le canal de fuite ; (ii) les infrastructures associées comprenant les lignes de transport et le poste d’interconnexion.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project will contribute to the energy required for the Government of Côte d’Ivoire ambition of increasing electricity access to 100% by 2025. It will also contribute (i) towards decreasing the use of more expensive and polluting thermal power plants during peak periods and (ii) to diversifying the energy mix towards the GoCI ambition of reaching 42% of its electricity generated by renewable sources by 2030.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet contribuera à l’obtention de l’énergie requise pour concrétiser l’ambition de l’État de Côte d’Ivoire de parvenir à un taux d’électrification de 100 % à l’horizon 2025. Il contribuera également à : i) réduire l’utilisation de centrales électriques thermiques plus onéreuses et polluantes pendant les périodes de pointe ; et ii) diversifier le bouquet énergétique en vue de la concrétisation de l’ambition du Gouvernement de de Côte d’Ivoire de voir 42 % de son électricité produite par des sources renouvelables à l’horizon 2030.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">In terms of development outcomes, the project will add 44 MW of baseload electricity generation capacity, or 2.3% of the country’s capacity. Annual electricity production is expected to be 196 Gwh, of mainly peak power. The project will save 109,561 tons of CO2 emissions, and help diversify Côte d’Ivoire’s energy mix away from fossil fuels. Net revenues accruing to the government are estimated at EUR 8 million. Finally, the project is expected to generate 500 jobs during construction and 28 skilled jobs during the operations phase. The value of supply chain linkages with local enterprises during the construction period is estimated at EUR 29 million. Ancillary infrastructure investments are expected to improve both road access and electricity quality for eight rural villages with an estimated total population of 8,800 people, of which 4,000 are new connections.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">En termes de résultats de développement, le projet ajoutera 44 MW de capacité de production d'électricité de base, soit 2,3% de la capacité du pays. La production annuelle d'électricité devrait s'élever à 196 Gwh, principalement en période de pointe. Le projet permettra d'économiser 109 561 tonnes d'émissions de CO2, et contribuera à diversifier le bouquet énergétique de la Côte d'Ivoire en abandonnant les combustibles fossiles. Les recettes nettes engrangées par le gouvernement sont estimées à 8 millions d'euros. Enfin, le projet devrait générer 500 emplois pendant la phase de construction et 28 emplois qualifiés pendant la phase d'exploitation. La valeur des liens de la chaîne d'approvisionnement avec les entreprises locales pendant la période de construction est estimée à 29 millions d'euros. Les investissements dans les infrastructures annexes devraient améliorer à la fois l'accès routier et la qualité de l'électricité pour huit villages ruraux dont la population totale est estimée à 8 800 personnes, dont 4 000 nouvelles connexions.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development

Working through a streamlined platform and a highly specialized team, the Facility seeks to alleviate the barrier of lack of access to debt financing faced by small scale renewable energy projects, thus increasing the flow of capital to the energy sector in Africa. FEI will support projects with financing needs that are less than what is currently required to justify the high transaction costs associated with the lending platforms of most DFIs, and financing requirements that are not adequately satisfied by local commercial banks due to a number of factors including risk perception and the dearth of suitable financing models (e.g. receivable-based financing). It will focus on providing senior and mezzanine debt financing to small scale projects (off-grid, mini-grid and on-grid) with total costs not exceeding USD 30 million. The Facility will operate with loan structures and pricing commensurate with risk profiles of projects and on a platform conducive to the efficient execution of deals, in accordance with evolving market needs. Unlike other debt funds proposed in the market, the Facility constitutes a direct lending platform. Although FEI does not seek to deploy funds through local financial intermediaries, through its demonstration effect and financial performance, FEI may support the continent’s local commercial banks and other financial intermediaries in their efforts to “bank” the sector.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet couvre la conception, la structuration et le fonctionnement d’un fonds de créances de 500 millions d’USD, à savoir la Facilité pour l’inclusion énergétique (FIE). La FIE appuiera les projets dont les besoins en financements sont d’un niveau inférieur à ce qui est actuellement requis pour justifier les coûts de transaction élevés liés aux plateformes de prêt de la plupart des institutions de financement du développement, et dont les besoins en financements ne sont pas suffisamment couverts par les banques commerciales locales en raison d’un certain nombre de facteurs, y compris la perception des risques et le manque de modèles de financement appropriés (tels que les financements fondés sur les comptes débiteurs). Elle privilégiera la fourniture de créances de rang privilégié et de financements mezzanine pour les projets de petite taille (systèmes hors-réseau, mini-réseaux et systèmes raccordés au réseau), à un coût total ne dépassant pas 30 millions d’USD. À travers une plateforme rationalisée et avec une équipe hautement spécialisée, la Facilité entend s’attaquer au manque d’accès aux fonds de créances pour les projets d’énergie renouvelable de petite taille, contribuant ainsi à l’augmentation des flux de capitaux vers le secteur de l’énergie en Afrique. La Facilité fonctionnera avec des structures de prêt et des mécanismes de tarification tenant compte des profils de risque des projets et en se basant sur une plateforme concourant à l’exécution efficiente des transactions, conformément à l’évolution des besoins sur le marché. Contrairement à d’autres mécanismes de financement par le biais de fonds de créances proposés sur le marché, la Facilité constitue une plateforme d’emprunt directe. Bien que la FIE ne vise pas à déployer des fonds par le biais d’intermédiaires financiers locaux, elle pourrait, à travers son effet de démonstration et sa performance financière, appuyer les banques commerciales locales et d’autres intermédiaires financiers du continent dans leurs efforts pour « bancariser » le secteur de l’énergie.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">FEI seeks to address these market failures and increase the flow of debt capital to small scale energy projects by deploying innovative investment strategies, specialized financial products, and streamlined due diligence procedures across Africa’s energy sector value chain. The Facility aims to reduce processing timelines and related due diligence costs of small scale projects. Although streamlined, the Facility’s platform will ensure compliance with acceptable credit criteria and the social and environmental considerations of its investors.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La FIE vise à s’attaquer aux insuffisances du marché et à augmenter les flux de fonds de créances ciblant les projets d’énergie de petite taille, à travers le déploiement de stratégies d’investissement innovantes, de produits financiers spécialisés et de procédures rationalisées de contrôle préalable le long de la chaîne de valeur du secteur de l’énergie en Afrique. La Facilité vise à réduire les délais de traitement et les coûts de contrôle préalable connexes des projets de petite taille. Bien qu’elle soit rationalisée, la plateforme de la Facilité permettra de garantir le respect de critères de crédit acceptables ainsi que des dispositions environnementales et sociales pertinentes de ses investisseurs.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">FEI is expected to assist in realizing ~50 small scale energy projects, with individual investments of between USD 5 and 20 million, thus increasing electricity generation in Africa by at least 300 MW and energy connections by a minimum of 2 million households, including off-grid. While providing access to power, projects financed by FEI will contribute to local, economic development through job creation and increased productivity, resulting in improved livelihoods and quality of life.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La FIE devrait contribuer à l’exécution d’environ 50 projets de production d’énergie à petite échelle, à hauteur d’investissements oscillant entre 5 millions d’USD et 20 millions d’USD par projet, contribuant ainsi à l’augmentation de la production d’électricité en Afrique, à hauteur d’au moins 300 MW, ainsi qu’à l’alimentation en électricité d’au moins 2 millions de ménages, y compris hors-réseau. Tout en garantissant l’accès à l’énergie, les projets financés par la FIE contribueront au développement économique sur le plan local, à travers la création d’emplois et l’augmentation de la productivité, avec à la clé l’amélioration des moyens d’existence ainsi que de la qualité de vie.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Facility for Energy Inclusion care of Apex Fund Services (Mauritius)</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2016-12-13" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2018-07-13" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PINS</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Kenneth Murithi MARANGU</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Equity Portfolio Management Off., PINS</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>k.marangu@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="934154"/><name><narrative>Port Louis</narrative></name><administrative code="2024" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="19542" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-20.16194 57.49889</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="PCLI"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23111"><narrative>Energy sector policy, planning and administration</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

This facility will hence provide FSDH with a much needed source of stable funds (FX) to strengthen its trade finance capabilities. The facility will also enable FSDH establish a track record and a demonstration effect providing comfort to international banks to avail it more trade lines. The Bank’s support is also additional at a time when traditional sources of trade liquidity are constrained and major global banks are receding to their traditional and core markets. This TF facility will be availed to FSDH in two disbursements of USD 35 million and USD 15 million.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur une ligne de crédit, à hauteur de 50 millions d’USD, sur une période de trois ans et demie en vue de soutenir la FSDH Merchant Bank Limited dans ses efforts pour intensifier le financement du commerce en faveur des entreprises locales au Nigéria. La facilité proposée fournira à la FSDH la source de financements stables (en devises) dont elle a tant besoin pour renforcer ses capacités dans le domaine du financement du commerce. Elle permettra également à la FSDH de suivre la performance et d’administrer la preuve de son efficacité pour amener les banques internationales à lui fournir davantage de créneaux en matière de financement du commerce. L’appui de la Banque constitue également un atout supplémentaire au moment où les sources habituelles de liquidités commerciales sont limitées et où les principales banques d’envergure mondiale se limitent à leurs marchés habituels et fondamentaux. Cette facilité de financement du commerce sera mise à la disposition de la FSDH en deux décaissements de 35 et 15 millions d’USD.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will support trade through indigenous firms and Nigerian SMEs in various sectors such as agriculture, pharmaceuticals, food processing and petrochemicals.

IDC was established in 1940 and is fully owned by the South African Government. It operates as a self-financing, independently sustainable development finance institution. This is the Bank’s third non-sovereign guaranteed facility to the institution. The LOC will also strengthen and enhance IDC’s long-term liquidity especially for dollars, and enhance its capacity to meet the demand for long-term financing needed by target sectors. The assistance comes at a critical time for IDC as it attempts to raise substantial amounts at a time SA’s (including several state-owned enterprises’) credit rating has recently been downgraded by both Fitch and S&amp;P and when there is increased risk aversion to State Owned Enterprises. The facility will also help diversify and stabilize IDC’s funding base, reduce its funding concentration risk and hopefully crowd-in other investors.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet vise à fournir à l’ « Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) » une Ligne de Crédit (LdC) multidevises avec une échéance de 12 ans (y compris un différé d’amortissement de trois ans) d’un montant de 100 millions d’USD et 1,3 milliard de rands, pour être prêter dans un deuxième temps pour des projets ciblant les infrastructures industrielles, notamment, la fabrication, l’agro-industrie, les nouvelles industries, les PME et autres projets en lignes avec les 5 grandes priorités de la Banque. L’IDC a été créée en 1940 et est la pleine propriété du Gouvernement sudafricain. Elle opère en tant qu’institution de financement du développement autonome et indépendante. Il s’agit de la troisième facilité sans garantie souveraine octroyé par la Banque à cette institution. La LdC renforcera également et accroîtra la liquidité à long terme de l’IDC, en particulier pour les dollars, tout en renforçant ses capacités à faire face à la demande de financements à long terme dont ont besoin les secteurs ciblés. Cette assistance intervient à un moment crucial pour IDC, dans la mesure où celle-ci s’emploie à mobiliser des montants substantiels dans un contexte où la note de crédit de l’Afrique du Sud (ainsi que celles de plusieurs entreprises étatiques) vient d’être abaissée aussi bien par la Fitch que par la S&amp;P couplé à une aversion croissante au risque de sociétés étatiques. La facilité aidera également à diversifier et à stabiliser la base de financement de l’IDC, à réduire son financement du risque de concentration et, avec un peu de chance, à attirer d’autres investisseurs.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project supports IDC’s development projects, focusing on industrial infrastructure, agro-processing and industrial value chains in South Africa and other RMCs to promote industrialization and regional integration.

Established in 1970 to assist the small scale farmer, Meridian group is one of the largest commodity aggregators in Southern Africa. The group plays a significant role in the promotion of agribusiness in five Southern Africa countries and its operations are in line with almost all of the Bank’s “high fives”. The proposed SCFF represents an opportunity to support a well-established and professionally run commodities company in Southern Africa. This will provide Meridian with affordable short/medium term financing required to unlock growth. Meridian will use the funds to purchase the soft commodities directly from small scale farmers in Malawi, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. This SCFF will not only provide inexpensive funding to Meridian but also provide FX liquidity support to the same markets. The SCFF also provides the Bank with an opportunity to indirectly intervene in two low income countries and a fragile state, Malawi, Mozambique and Zimbabwe respectively. Furthermore, it provides the Bank with an opportunity to intervene in a sector characterized by extremely low investments due to perceived risk.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente opération porte sur une facilité de financement des produits agricoles de base (SCFF) de 20 millions de dollars EU octroyée au groupe Meridian en vue de financer les exportations des matières premières telles que le maïs, les arachides, les pois, le sésame et les haricots. Créé en 1970 pour aider les petits exploitants agricoles, le groupe Meridian est l’un des principaux agrégateurs de produits de base en Afrique australe. Il joue un rôle fondamental pour la promotion de l’agro-industrie dans cinq pays d’Afrique australe et ses opérations sont en adéquation avec la quasi-totalité des « cinq grandes priorités » de la Banque. La Facilité proposée représente une opportunité pour soutenir une société de produits de base bien établie et gérée de façon professionnellement en Afrique australe. Elle permettra à Meridian de disposer à court ou à moyen terme du financement requis pour libérer la croissance. Meridian utilisera les fonds décaissés en sa faveur pour acheter des produits agricoles de base auprès de petits exploitants au Malawi, au Mozambique et au Zimbabwe. Non seulement la SCFF assurera un financement peu onéreux à Meridian, mais elle apportera aux mêmes marchés un soutien de liquidité en devises. La Facilité donne également à la Banque l’opportunité d’intervenir indirectement dans deux pays à faible revenu et dans un État fragile, à savoir le Malawi, le Mozambique et le Zimbabwe respectivement. Elle est aussi l’occasion pour la Banque d’intervenir dans un secteur marqué par l’extrême faiblesse de ses investissements en raison du risque perçu.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of this Soft Commodity Finance Facility is to provide pre &amp; postshipment finance along various stages of Meridian’s soft commodity value chain operations in Malawi, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. Specifically, the facility will be used for the following purposes: i) Provide funding to purchase farming inputs (mainly fertilizer) to be supplied to farmers so as to ensure consistency and quality of the commodities being supplied to Meridian; ii) Purchase of soft commodities from over 10,000 farmers in Malawi, Zimbabwe and Mozambique; and iii) Upon purchase of the soft commodities, provide working capital to Meridian to enable the company engage in basic processing of the soft commodities prior to export.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif général de la Facilité de financement des produits agricoles de base est de financer, avant et après l’expédition, les diverses étapes des opérations que Meridian réalise dans la chaîne de valeur des produits agricoles de base au Malawi, au Mozambique et au Zimbabwe. La Facilité sera particulièrement utilisée aux fins ci-après : i) fournir un financement pour l’achat d’intrants agricoles (principalement des engrais) destinés aux agriculteurs afin d’assurer la cohérence et la qualité des produits fournis à Meridian ; ii) acheter des produits agricoles de base auprès de plus de 10 000 agriculteurs au Malawi, au Zimbabwe et au Mozambique ; et après l’achat des produits de base, fournir un fonds de roulement à Meridian pour permettre à la société de s’occuper du traitement de base des produits agricoles de base avant l’exportation.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The SCFF will provide broad empowerment benefits directly impacting at least 10,000 small scale farmers in the respective 3 RMCs.

This involves the development, construction, operation and maintenance of a 125 MW power plant using coal as a base fuel, in accordance with the formula "Build, Own, Operate (BOO)". The plant will be located near the village of Bargny Minam, about 32 km from the city of Dakar. This project is strategically important for Senegal, whose main objective, pursued by the government as part of its energy sector development policy, is to improve electricity supply in terms of reliability and cost. The use of coal as a source of energy rather than oil will enable the country to reduce its energy costs, which will improve competitiveness and sustainability and enhance long-term economic growth by increasing Senegal's infrastructure capacity and supporting foreign direct investment. It will be implemented over 24 months. Once completed, the project will, on the one hand, diversify the sources of electrical energy in Senegal and, on the other hand, secure the supply of electrical energy so as to meet the growing demand, of approximately 7.89% annually over the 2005-2025 period. It will thus increase SENELEC's production capacity by providing the interconnected grid with around 925 GWh per year for a plant availability of 91.8%.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention concerne le prêt supplémentaire au Projet de Centrale électrique de Sendou. Le présent projet porte sur le développement, la construction, l'exploitation et la maintenance d’une centrale électrique de 125 MW utilisant du charbon comme combustible de base, suivant la formule "Build, Own, Operate (BOO)". La centrale sera implantée à proximité du village de Bargny Minam, à 32 km environ de la ville de Dakar. Ce projet est stratégiquement important pour le Sénégal, dont le principal objectif, poursuivi par le gouvernement dans le cadre de sa politique de développement du secteur de l'énergie, est d'améliorer l'approvisionnement en électricité en termes de fiabilité et de coût. L'utilisation du charbon comme source d'énergie plutôt que de pétrole permettra au pays de réduire ses coûts énergétiques, ce qui améliorera la compétitivité et la durabilité et renforcera la croissance économique à long terme en augmentant la capacité d'infrastructure du Sénégal et en soutenant les investissements directs étrangers. Il sera mis en œuvre sur 24 mois. Une fois réalisé, le projet permettra d’une part de diversifier les sources d’énergie électrique au Sénégal et d’autre part de sécuriser l’approvisionnement en énergie électrique de façon à satisfaire la demande croissante, d’environ 7,89 % annuellement sur la période de 2005-2025. Il permettra ainsi d’augmenter la capacité de production de la SENELEC en fournissant au réseau interconnecté environ 925 GWh par an pour une disponibilité de la centrale à 91,8 %.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project aims to develop, build, operate and maintain a coal-fired power plant that will produce at least 925 GWh of electricity annually, equivalent to 40% of current annual production.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet a pour objectif de développer, construire, exploiter et entretenir une centrale au charbon qui produira annuellement au moins 925 GWh d'électricité, soit l'équivalent de 40% de la production annuelle actuelle.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The main beneficiaries of the project are Senegalese Government, populations, especially young people and women inhabitants in Bargny, Minam and Sendou. The project will reduce the migration of people from rural areas to urban areas by providing local employment opportunities to rural populations by boosting productivity and industrial and agricultural activities in these areas. A positive impact on government revenue is expected thanks to the economic activity of the plant. Finally, private sector involvement in infrastructure financing will release limited government resources for other important areas (education, health, etc.).</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les principaux bénéficiaires du projet sont le Gouvernement Sénégalais, les populations, en particulier les jeunes et les femmes habitants à Bargny, Minam et Sendou. Le projet réduira notamment la migration de la population des zones rurales vers les zones urbaines en fournissant des opportunités d'emploi local aux populations rurales en stimulant la productivité et les activités industrielles et agricoles dans ces zones. Un impact positif sur les recettes publiques est attendu grâce à l'activité économique de l'usine. Enfin, la participation du secteur privé au financement des infrastructures libérera des ressources gouvernementales limitées pour d'autres domaines importants (éducation, santé, etc.).</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="SN-COA-44" type="10"><narrative>Compagnie d'électricité du Sénégal</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2015-10-30" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2016-06-28" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>SNOU</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Rokhaya DIOP-DIALLO</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, SNOU</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>r.diop@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="SN"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2245591"/><name><narrative>Sendou</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>14.6719 -17.2061</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23111"><narrative>Energy sector policy, planning and administration</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

This transaction entails funding of GACL’s capital investment Programme that consists of the construction of a new terminal at KIA and rehabilitation/modernisation of other airports in Ghana. The Programme also entails a component of refinancing some of GACL’s debt although the Bank’s loan will not be used for such refinancing. The main component of the Programme is the work to modernise and upgrade KIA, the only international airport in Ghana and the first port of call for business travellers as well as tourists in the country. The airport is located within the city of Accra and ranked as the third busiest airport in the West African sub-region following Lagos and Dakar. Being the gateway to Ghana, the expansion of KIA will ensure sufficient revenue generation for GACL and additional capacity for airport infrastructure in the country.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent Programme d’investissement en immobilisations de la « Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) » porte sur la construction d’un nouveau terminal à l’Aéroport international de Kotoka (KIA) à Accra, et la réhabilitation d’autres aéroports gérés par la GACL, notamment ceux de Kumasi, Tamale, Ho et Wa.

Uganda Development Bank Limited (UDBL), the country’s premier development financial institution’s duty is to help accelerate Uganda’s development by supporting small &amp; medium enterprises (SMEs) and large-scale development projects in the various key growth sectors, thereby, address the financing gap to SMEs and Infrastructure projects in the country. The proposed financial package relates to the provision of: (i) a USD 15 million Sovereign-Guaranteed Line of Credit (LOC); (ii) a non-sovereign USD 5 million Line of Credit under the SME Program; and, (iii) a Technical Assistance Grant of up to USD 1 million. The sovereign LOC will enhance the lending capacity of UDBL at longer tenors and at a price that is reasonable for financial intermediation while the non-sovereign LOC will facilitate additional lending to SMEs and support UDBL’s intervention in focus areas. The TA linked to the SME program funding will help strengthen the capacity of UBDL staff in areas where some weaknesses have been identified. The AfDB longer tenor funds will allow UDBL to meet its customers’ borrowing requirements particularly in industries where long tenured funds are scarce/ unavailable due to the perceived risk profile of SMEs. It will help reinforce UDB’s role as a national development bank in implementing the country’s NDP and complement UDBL’s efforts to diversify its funding base and mobilize resources from other sources.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La facilité proposée s’inscrit dans la droite ligne de la « Vision 2040 » de l’Ouganda, du PDN 2 et du DSP de la BAD pour l’Ouganda. Uganda Development Bank Limited (UDBL) en tant que première institution de financement de développement de l’Ouganda, a vocation à aider à accélérer le développement du pays en finançant les petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) et les grands projets de développement dans les différents secteurs de croissance clés, comblant ainsi le déficit de financement des PME et des projets d’infrastructure dans le pays. La facilité comprend : i) une Ligne de crédit à garantie souveraine d’un montant de 15 millions de $ EU ; ii) une Ligne de crédit non souveraine d’un montant de 5 millions de $ au titre du Programme dédié aux PME ; et iii) un don d’assistance technique pouvant atteindre 1 million de $. La LC souveraine contribuera à renforcer la capacité de prêt d’UDBL pour des durées plus longues et à des taux qui soient raisonnables pour l’intermédiation financière, tandis que la LC non souveraine contribuera à faciliter l’octroi de prêts supplémentaires aux PME et à soutenir l’intervention d’UDBL dans les domaines cibles. Quant à l’Assistance Technique (AT) liée au financement du Programme dédié aux PME, elle contribuera à renforcer les capacités du personnel d’UDBL dans les domaines où l’on a identifié des faiblesses. Le financement à plus longue échéance de la BAD permettra à UDBL de satisfaire les besoins d’emprunts de ses clients, en particulier dans les industries où le financement à longue échéance est rare/inexistant en raison du profil de risque perçu des PME. Il contribuera à renforcer le rôle d’UDBL en tant que banque de développement nationale en finançant la mise en œuvre du PDN de l’Ouganda et en complétant les efforts déployés par la banque en vue de diversifier sa base de financement et de mobiliser des ressources auprès d’autres sources.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">UDBL intervenes in sectors such as agriculture and agro processing, hotel and tourism, education, health and manufacturing among others. The project will thus enhance private sector development, by demonstrating the viability of investing in growth-oriented SMEs. Additionally, increased revenue by the beneficiaries at sub-project level will lead to incremental tax. The facility will also support financial inclusion, gender and social benefits. The investment will further contribute towards provision of quality and low-cost education and health services to thus narrowing the existing widening social and income gaps in the country.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">UDBL intervient dans des secteurs tels que l’agriculture et l’agro-industrie, l’hôtellerie et le tourisme, l’éducation, la santé et l’industrie manufacturière. Par conséquent, le projet favorisera le développement du secteur privé, en démontrant la viabilité des investissements dans les PME axées sur la croissance. En outre, l’accroissement des revenus des bénéficiaires au niveau des sous-projets se traduira par une augmentation des recettes fiscales. Par ailleurs, la facilité favorisera l’inclusion financière et générera des avantages sexospécifiques et sociaux. L’investissement contribuera, aussi à fournir des services d’éducation et de santé de qualité et à faible coût, contribuant ainsi à réduire les inégalités sociales et de revenu qui se creusent dans le pays.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will enhance private sector development, by demonstrating the viability of investing in growth-oriented SMEs.

The project entails providing financial support to KCB for the purpose of upscaling its lending to businesses in various economic sectors. For this project, the African Development Bank provide a USD 100 million LOC (7-year maturity, inclusive of a 2-year grace period) to the KBC. Management has selected KCB as a partner owing to its financial resilience and longstanding role as a key financier of the Kenyan economy. It is a market leader in various aspects, among them financial inclusion through mobile phone based micro-lending in largest geographical areas, even in least developed sections of the country, etc. KCB’s Strategic Business Plan 2015-2019 (SBP) focuses mapping its business along key sectors that are pivotal to the country’s economic growth ; Trade, Manufacturing, ICT, Agri-Business and Tourism. The project will help bridge the gap in terms of KCB’s financial outlays compared to available sources of funding to enable the bank better meet its clients’ financial needs. Additionally, providing the proposed resources will enable KCB to bridge the remarkably evident currency mismatch seeing that most infrastructure projects require substantial amount of hard currency while the bulk of the bank’s funding is in the local currency. Finally, the proposed project will significantly boost the bank’s resolve to make a profound impact on youth by investing its own resources to enrich their skills and further link them with business ownership or employment opportunities.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est relatif au financement à long terme du soutien apporté au programme des activités d’expansion de la Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) dans des secteurs tels que l’infrastructure, la fabrication et l'énergie renouvelable. Le projet consiste à fournir un appui financier à la KCB dans le but de lui permettre d’augmenter sa capacité de financement auprès des entreprises dans divers secteurs économiques. Pour ce projet, la Banque africaine de développement consent à une ligne de crédit (LOC) de 100 millions de USD (sur 7 ans, avec une période de grâce de 2 ans) au profit de la KBC. La direction a choisi la KCB comme partenaire en raison de sa résilience financière et de son rôle clé dans le financement de l'économie kényane depuis de longues années. Banque leader par de nombreux aspects, la KBC est connue pour son inclusion financière dans le micro-crédit par téléphone mobile, dans les plus grandes zones géographiques, et même dans zones moins développées du pays. Le Plan d'activité stratégique de la KCB (2015-2019) s’engage à faire converger ses activités avec les secteurs clés essentiels à la croissance économique du pays, qui sont le commerce, la fabrication, les TIC, l’agro-alimentaire et le tourisme. Le projet permettra de combler l'écart de la KCB en termes de dépenses par rapport aux sources de financement disponibles dans le but d’aider la banque à mieux répondre aux besoins financiers des clients. Le dit-prêt permettra, en outre, à la KCB de combler le déséquilibre évident lié à la variabilité des taux de change à laquelle sont assujettis la plupart des projets d'infrastructure qui exigent une importante quantité de monnaie forte, tandis que l'essentiel du financement de la banque se fait en monnaie locale. Enfin, le projet proposé permettra d'accroître considérablement la volonté de la Banque d'avoir un impact significatif sur les jeunes,  qui en investissant avec ses propres ressources, leur permettra d’enrichir leurs compétences et de créer leur entreprise ou de bénéficier de plus d’opportunités d'emploi.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The purpose of the project is to support infrastructure, manufacturing projects and youth-owned enterprises in Kenya.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le but de ce projet est d’apporter un appui au développement des infrastructures, aux projets de fabrication et création d'entreprises initiés par les jeunes kenyans.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project, with its various sub-components will be used to target optimal benefit for various client segments, including SMEs, women entrepreneurs and youth empowerment projects. The anticipated creation of jobs is the biggest source of the proposed project’s household Effects through the provision of long-term funding for projects and firms. Additionally, SMEs are relatively labour-intensive and the dedication of part of the project proceeds towards this business segment is a therefore major boost. The USD 10 million that will be earmarked for promotion of youth employment is expected to have a profound impact with about 5,000 direct jobs targeted through the bank’s KCB Foundation, which will combine derisking funding to deliver training and mentorship to the targeted youth.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet, avec ses diverses sous-composantes, a pour objectif d'atteindre différents segments de bénéficiaires, y compris les PMEs, les femmes entrepreneurs et les projets d'autonomisation des jeunes. La création d'emplois, qui en découlera, aura un impact majeur sur les ménages grâce au financement à long terme des projets et des entreprises. En outre, les PMEs qui requièrent de façon générale beaucoup d’efforts et d'attention sont au coeur de la réalisation du projet car ce secteur d'activité représente un facteur de développement majeur. Les 10 millions de USD qui seront destinés à la promotion de l'emploi des jeunes devraient avoir un impact crucial, notamment grâce à la création ciblée d’environ 5 000 emplois directs par la Fondation KCB de la banque, qui va combiner le financement d'atténuation du risque pour fournir un programme de formation et de mentorat pour les jeunes concernés.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Kenya Commercial Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2017-10-25" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2018-02-21" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2021-02-02" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2021-02-02" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COUG</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Mpanga Juliet BYARUHANGA</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Fin.

The T1 steam turbine uses a cooling tower fed with seawater to cool the steam turbine condenser cooling. The T2 unit is currently a 220 MW plant, consisting of two combustion turbines exhausting directly to the atmosphere. The existing T2 Unit is to be expanded to its full capacity of 330 MW, by the addition of a steam turbine to convert it to combined-cycle operation. It is proposed that the expanded T2 plant will be cooled by a new once through cooling water system from the sea. The once-through cooling system is also proposed to replace the existing seawater fed cooling tower system of steam turbine generator unit at T1. It should be noted that the above mentioned expansion of the power plant of Unit T2 to its final capacity is proposed to be implemented in parallel to the change in cooling water system.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La première unité à cycle combiné (330 MW), située à Takoradi (T1), fonctionne à plein régime depuis avril 1999 avec deux turbines à combustion.

L'unité de T2 est actuellement une centrale de 220 MW, composée de deux turbines à combustion qui rejettent directement dans l'atmosphère. L'unité T2 est dans l’attente d’une extension pour atteindre sa capacité finale de 330 MW grâce à l'ajout d'une turbine à vapeur pour la convertir en mode cycle combiné. Une option est d'équiper la nouvelle version de la centrale T2 avec un système de refroidissement d’eau de mer. Le système de refroidissement à passage unique est également proposé pour remplacer l'actuel système de tour de refroidissement à l'eau de mer du générateur à turbine de l’unité T1. Il convient de noter que l'implementation du projet d'expansion de la centrale électrique de l'unité T2 à sa capacité totale a été suggérée en parallèlle à la mise en œuvre du changement du système de refroidissement.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The beneficiaries of the project will be the Government of Ghana and the population.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les bénéficiaires du projet seront le gouvernement du Ghana et la population.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Takoradi International Company LLC</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2012-07-11" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2012-07-25" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PINS2</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Mohamed Yusuf BALAYAH</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>m.balayah@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="GH"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2306311"/><name><narrative>Aboadi</narrative></name><administrative code="1333" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="16670" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>4.97287 -1.64732</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23340"><narrative>Natural gas-fired electric power plants</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.6" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

The proposed power plant at Thika is included in Kenya’s Least Cost Power Development Plan, one among three plants which are to contribute to increasing the availability of electricity on the national grid – complementing the Kenya Power and Lighting Company’s (KPLC) transmission and substation project that is under construction (independently of this proposed project). It is fully aligned with the Country’s Strategy Paper (2008-2013) for Kenya which has been elaborated to support two strategic objectives: (i) the development of infrastructures to support economic growth; and (ii) the creation of employment opportunities to reduce poverty. Within this framework, the country specifically intends to address the problems related to the irregularity of its electricity supply. This document is aligned on the long-term development strategy of the country, namely the Vision 2030, which is aware of the fact that the costs of energy in Kenya are currently higher than those of other African competing economies. To stimulate growth and attract investment, Kenya must produce electricity at an economic cost, and increase the efficiency of energy consumption. Aware of its energy needs in order to achieve these objectives of the Vision 2030, the Government has envisioned an ambitious plan to increase its energy production in order to expand current installed capacity. This power plant at Thika aims to satisfy the rapidly growing demand for electricity, while diversifying sources of energy supply.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La diversification des sources de production d'énergie au Kenya est nécessaire ; et l'utilisation des combustibles fossiles est considérée comme une option viable, tandis que l'on s’interroge sur les possibilités d’une exploitation poussée des ressources hydroélectriques. Le projet de centrale thermique à Thika, fait partie de trois autres projets de centrales prévus dans le plan kenyan de développement énergétique à moindre coût pour accroître la disponibilité de l'énergie au niveau du réseau national - en complément du projet en cours de transport et de poste d'électricité de la Compagnie d'électricité et d'éclairage du Kenya (KPLC) (indépendamment du projet proposé). Il s'incrit pleinement dans le cadre du Document de stratégie pays (2008-2013) pour le Kenya qui vise à appuyer deux piliers stratégiques : (i) l'aménagement des infrastructures en vue de renforcer la croissance économique ; et (ii) la création de possibilités d'emplois pour faire reculer la pauvreté. Dans le cadre du premier pilier, le pays aspire à s'attaquer notamment aux problèmes liés à l'irrégularité de son alimentation en électricité. Ce Document est aligné sur la stratégie de développement à long terme du pays, à savoir la Vision 2030, qui est consciente que les coûts d'énergie au Kenya sont actuellement plus élévés que ceux des autres économies africaines concurrrentes. Pour stimuler la croissance et attirer les investissements, le Kenya doit produire de l'électricité à un coût économique et accroître l'efficience de la consommation énergetique. Conscient des besoins énergétiques à satisfaire pour atteindre ces Objectifs de la Vision 2030, le Gouvernement a établi un ambitieux plan d'accroissement de la production en vue d'augmenter la capacité installée. Ce projet de centrale électrique à Thika vise à satisfaire la demande en croissance rapide d'électricté, tout en diversifiant les sources d'alimentation en énergie.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The proposed TPP (Thermal Power Plant), a Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO) powered Thermal Power Plant, will be located in Thika district, in Kenya, on a purchased plot approximately 8 acres in area, adjacent to a coffee farm. Project activities will include: clearance of approximately 8 acres of land for construction; construction of a powerhouse (to house the diesel engines and a chimney of 65-70 m height) - installation of boilers and condenser, diesel tanks, switchgear; and construction of water treatment and pump house, and ancillary buildings. The power house will generate 60-80 Megawatts of power; and will be connected to electricity transmission network via an existing substation. Once operational, the plant will run continuously; decommissioning is estimated at more than 30 years into the future.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La centrale thermique envisagée, alimentée au fioul lourd dans le district de Thika, au Kenya, sera construite sur un terrain acquis pour le projet d’une superficie d’environ 3,24 hectares et attenant à une plantation de café. Les activités prévues consisteront à : dégager le terrain en vue des travaux de construction ; construire une centrale électrique (qui accueillera des moteurs diesel et une cheminée d’une hauteur de 60 à 80 mètres) et installer des chaudières et un condensateur, des réservoirs diesel et un appareillage de commutation ; construire une station d'épuration et de pompage ainsi que des bâtiments auxiliaires. La centrale générera 60 à 80 mégawatts et sera reliée au réseau de transport d'électricité par un poste existant. Une fois mise en service, elle fonctionnera en continu. D'après les estimations, son démantelement se ferait dans plus de trente ans.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The direct beneficiaries of the project will be the population of Nairobi and Thika town. Up to 500 people will be employed during construction. However, once operational, only 40 to 50 persons will be permanently employed. The proposed project site is located adjacent to the Nairobi-Thika highway, approximately 30 km north of Nairobi city centre and 5 km southwest of Thika town. The project will provide reliable power that will encourage economic growth by helping address Kenya's current and projected energy shortfall. It will benefit the Nairobi area where there is high and growing population.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les bénéficiaires directs du projet seront les populations de Nairobi et de la ville de Thika. Près de 500 personnes seront employées pendant la phase de construction. Mais dès lors que la centrale sera opérationnelle, seulement 40 à 50 personnes occuperont un poste permanent. Le site proposé pour le projet se situe le long de l'autoroute Thika - Nairobi, à environ 30 km au nord du centre-ville de Nairobi et à 5 km au sud-ouest de la ville de Thika. Le projet permettra de fournir une alimentation électrique fiable qui stimulera la croissance économique tout en aidant le Kenya à faire face au déficit énergétique actuel et grandissant. Il profitera à la région de Nairobi où la population est importante et croissante.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="KE-COA-115" type="10"><narrative>Thika Power Limited</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-IFC" type="40"><narrative>International Finance Corporation (IFC) / World Bank Group</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2011-12-07" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2012-05-31" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2027-05-30" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2014-01-15" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>RDGE</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Manners CHUMA</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Management Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>m.chuma@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="KE"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="179330"/><name><narrative>Thika</narrative></name><administrative code="51325" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="51339" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-1.03326 37.0693</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23310"><narrative>Energy generation, non-renewable sources, unspecified</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.6" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

It aims to provide 300MW of reliable, low cost wind energy to the national grid, equivalent to over 20% of the current installed electricity generating capacity. The wind farm site is located in Marsabit District in northern Kenya, approximately 50km north of South Horr Township and 8km east of Lake Turkana. The project will comprise a wind farm, associated overhead electric grid collection system and a high voltage switchyard. The project also includes rehabilitation of the existing road from Laisamis to the wind farm site, a distance of approximately 200km, as well as plant and equipment lay-down areas, and access road network in and around the site for construction, operations and maintenance purposes.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet d'énergie éolienne du lac Turkana constitue un atout stratégique significatif pour le Kenya, et s'avère l'un des plus importants projets d’investissements privés dans l'histoire du Kenya. Il a pour but de d'apporter 300 MW d'énergie éolienne fiable et à faible coût au réseau national, soit l'équivalent d’un peu plus de 20% des capacités de production d'énergie électrique installées à l’heure actuelle. La ferme éolienne est située dans le district de Marsabit, au nord du Kenya, approximativement à 50 km au nord de South Horr et à 8 km à l'est du lac Turkana. Le projet comprend la construction d’un parc éolien, la mise en place d’un système de collecte via un réseau électrique suspendu et un poste de commutation haute tension. Le projet comprend également la réfection de la route actuelle entre Laisamis et le site du parc éolien, soit une distance d'environ 200km, des points de déchargement des installations et équipements, ainsi que l'accès au réseau routier à l'intérieur et autour du site pour sa construction, son exploitation et son entretien.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The major aim of the project is to substitute a generation of clean and low cost energy from more expensive plants operating on imported diesel and fuel oil, increase employment of local labor during the construction phase, and upgrade the rural road network, significantly improving access to markets and business opportunities for the local communities, and consequently catalyzing additional jobs and income-generation opportunities in this poor and remote area. The project’s Corporate Social Responsibility Program will support investments in the local health facilities, potable water supply and school buildings. Building on its integrated approach to infrastructure development, the Bank’s ultimate aim is to establish Kenya in particular and East Africa in general, as an ideal place for business and investment through adequate energy supply capabilities.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le principal objectif du projet est de remplacer par une génération d'énergie propre et à faible coût d'exploitation des usines plus chères alimentées au diesel et au fuel ; d'accroître l'emploi de la main-d'œuvre locale pendant la phase de construction ; de réhabiliter le réseau routier rural ; d'améliorer de façon significative l'accès des communautés locales aux marchés et aux activités économiques, et par conséquent, de générer des emplois supplémentaires et des activités génératrices de revenus dans cette région éloignée et pauvre. Le projet du Programme de responsabilité sociale de l'entreprise favorisera les investissements dans les établissements locaux de santé et d'alimentation en eau potable, et les infrastructures scolaires. Fort de son approche intégrée de développement de l'infrastructure, l'objectif ultime de la Banque est d'établir, en particulier au Kenya, et en Afrique de l'Est en général, un environnement idéal propice aux affaires et à l'investissement grâce à des capacités d'approvisionnement en énergie adaptées.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The local population

It aims to provide 300MW of reliable, low cost wind energy to the national grid, equivalent to over 20% of the current installed electricity generating capacity. The wind farm site is located in Marsabit District in northern Kenya, approximately 50km north of South Horr Township and 8km east of Lake Turkana. The project will comprise a wind farm, associated overhead electric grid collection system and a high voltage switchyard. The project also includes rehabilitation of the existing road from Laisamis to the wind farm site, a distance of approximately 200km, as well as plant and equipment lay-down areas, and access road network in and around the site for construction, operations and maintenance purposes.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet d'énergie éolienne du lac Turkana constitue un atout stratégique significatif pour le Kenya, et s'avère l'un des plus importants projets d’investissements privés dans l'histoire du Kenya. Il a pour but de d'apporter 300 MW d'énergie éolienne fiable et à faible coût au réseau national, soit l'équivalent d’un peu plus de 20% des capacités de production d'énergie électrique installées à l’heure actuelle. La ferme éolienne est située dans le district de Marsabit, au nord du Kenya, approximativement à 50 km au nord de South Horr et à 8 km à l'est du lac Turkana. Le projet comprend la construction d’un parc éolien, la mise en place d’un système de collecte via un réseau électrique suspendu et un poste de commutation haute tension. Le projet comprend également la réfection de la route actuelle entre Laisamis et le site du parc éolien, soit une distance d'environ 200km, des points de déchargement des installations et équipements, ainsi que l'accès au réseau routier à l'intérieur et autour du site pour sa construction, son exploitation et son entretien.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The major aim of the project is to substitute a generation of clean and low cost energy from more expensive plants operating on imported diesel and fuel oil, increase employment of local labor during the construction phase, and upgrade the rural road network, significantly improving access to markets and business opportunities for the local communities, and consequently catalyzing additional jobs and income-generation opportunities in this poor and remote area. The project’s Corporate Social Responsibility Program will support investments in the local health facilities, potable water supply and school buildings. Building on its integrated approach to infrastructure development, the Bank’s ultimate aim is to establish Kenya in particular and East Africa in general, as an ideal place for business and investment through adequate energy supply capabilities.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le principal objectif du projet est de remplacer par une génération d'énergie propre et à faible coût d'exploitation des usines plus chères alimentées au diesel et au fuel ; d'accroître l'emploi de la main-d'œuvre locale pendant la phase de construction ; de réhabiliter le réseau routier rural ; d'améliorer de façon significative l'accès des communautés locales aux marchés et aux activités économiques, et par conséquent, de  générer des emplois supplémentaires et des activités génératrices de revenus dans cette région éloignée et pauvre. Le projet du Programme de responsabilité sociale de l'entreprise favorisera les investissements dans les établissements locaux de santé et d'alimentation en eau potable, et les infrastructures scolaires. Fort de son approche intégrée de développement de l'infrastructure, l'objectif ultime de la Banque est d'établir, en particulier au Kenya, et en Afrique de l'Est en général, un environnement idéal

This intervention consists of three major components: the development and development of an open-air nickel and cobalt mine about 80 km east of the capital, Antananarivo; the construction and operation of a large hydrometallurgical ore processing plant, 11 km from Toamasina, Madagascar's largest port; the construction and operation of a 220 km slurry pipeline between the mine and the mill. The processing plant, which is by far the largest component of the project, will create significant value-added in the country, compared to the export of raw ore. Once fully operational, the project will have the annual capacity to produce 60,000 tonnes of high grade construction and nickel, 5,600 tonnes of cobalt, and 190,000 tonnes of ammonium sulphate fertilizer. The project life is 30 years, which includes a mine-reserve life of 27 years and construction period of 3 years.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet Ambatovy Nickel, portant sur la construction de l'une des plus grandes mines de nickel latéritiques au monde, est l'un des plus importants investissements étrangers directs à Madagascar, et aidera le pays à diversifier son économie basée sur l'agriculture. Cette intervention se compose de trois grands volets : l’aménagement et la mise en valeur d’une mine de nickel et de cobalt à ciel ouvert, à environ 80 km à l’est de la capitale, Antananarivo ; la construction et l’exploitation d’une grande usine de traitement hydrométallurgique du minerai, à 11 km de Toamasina, le plus grand port de Madagascar ; la construction et l’exploitation d’un pipeline à boues de 220 km entre la mine et l’usine de traitement. L’usine de traitement, qui est de loin la plus grande composante du projet, permettra de créer une importante valeur ajoutée dans le pays, par comparaison avec l’exportation du minerai brut. Une fois pleinement opérationnel, le projet aura la capacité annuelle de produire 60 000 tonnes de matériaux de construction de haute qualité et de nickel, 5 600 tonnes de cobalt et 190 000 tonnes d'engrais au sulfate d'ammonium.

It is expected that this productive activity will not only raise the income of the population but also dramatically improve their overall health and nutrition.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le principal bénéficiaire du projet est le Gouvernement malgache.

On s'attend à ce que cette activité productive augmente non seulement le revenu de la population mais améliore également de manière spectaculaire leur santé et leur nutrition globales.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>AMSA / DMSA</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2007-05-02" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2007-08-22" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>SNOU</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Rokhaya DIOP-DIALLO</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, SNOU</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>r.diop@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="MG"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="1058532"/><name><narrative>Moramanga</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-18.9495 48.2301</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="1053384"/><name><narrative>Toamasina</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-18.1492 49.4023</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="32210"><narrative>Mineral/mining policy and administrative management</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.7.6" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Mining and Mineral Development - other fuel</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><default-flow-type code="21"/><default-finance-type code="421"/><default-tied-status code="5"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2007-08-22"/><period-end iso-date="2007-11-22"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2007-08-22">28322193.270000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2007-11-22"/><period-end iso-date="2008-02-22"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2007-11-22">28322193.270000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2008-02-22"/><period-end iso-date="2008-05-22"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2008-02-22">28322193.270000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2008-05-22"/><period-end iso-date="2008-08-22"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2008-05-22">28322193.270000</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000120001469"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2007-08-22"/><value value-date="2007-08-22">113288773.08</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>AMSA / DMSA</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="421"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-MG-BAA-002" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/en/projects-and-operations/P-MG-BAA-002" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/fileadmin/uploads/afdb/Documents/Publications/Ambatovy%20Nickel%20Project.pdf" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/fileadmin/uploads/afdb/Documents/Project-and-Operations/Project_Brief_Ambatovy_Madagascar_2007.pdf" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

It is part of initiatives promoting the continent's natural resources, particularly agricultural resources in the context of improving food security. The diversification of the activities of the Mali's Modern Mill will be operated through the manufacture of pasta, couscous and flour made from wheat, millet and maize. Wheat will be imported while millet and corn will be purchased locally. Seven production lines will be installed in Segou, Mali, with an annual production capacity of 27,000 tons of pasta, 7200 tons of wheat couscous, millet and corn and 55,000 tons of flour. Production residues will be valued in the form of livestock feed (84000 tonnes per year). The highlights of the project are: (i) appreciable knowledge of the market by the developer and existence of potential demand with good growth prospects; (ii) commercial viability and (iii) coherence with the country's development and intervention strategies. The Bank's contribution to this project is not just financial. Effective assistance helped improve project structuring, strategic arrangements and management. In addition, the Bank will participate in the development of the capital market in the WAEMU zone by granting this loan in local currency.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet de diversification du Moulin Moderne du Mali (« M3 ») s’aligne sur les priorités régissant les interventions de la Banque dans ses pays membres régionaux. Il s’inscrit dans le cadre des initiatives valorisant les ressources naturelles du continent, en particulier les ressources agricoles dans le cadre de l’amélioration de la sécurité alimentaire. La Diversification des activités du Moulin Moderne du Mali sera opérée grâce à la fabrication de pâtes alimentaires, de couscous et de farines à base de blé, de mil et de maïs. Le blé sera importé alors que le mil et le maïs seront achetés localement. Sept chaines de production seront installées à Ségou, au Mali, avec une capacité de production annuelle de 27000 tonnes de pâtes alimentaires, 7200 tonnes de couscous de blé, mil et maïs et 55000 tonnes de farine. Les résidus de production seront valorisés sous la forme d’aliment pour le bétail (84000 tonnes par an). Les points forts du projet sont les suivants : (i) connaissance appréciable du marché par le promoteur et existence d’une demande potentielle avec de bonnes perspectives de croissance ; (ii) viabilité commerciale et (iii) cohérence avec les stratégies de développement du pays et d’intervention de la Banque. La contribution de la Banque dans ce projet n’est pas seulement financière. Une assistance effective a contribué à améliorer la structuration de projet, les dispositions stratégiques et la gestion. De plus, la Banque participera au développement du marché de capitaux en zone UEMOA en octroyant ce prêt en monnaie locale.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of the project is to help increase the access of the Malian population to quality food products (pasta, couscous and flour from wheat, millet and maize).</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet est de contribuer à accroître l’accès de la population Malienne à des produits alimentaires de qualité (pâtes, couscous et farines à partir de blé, mil et maïs).</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project is expected to create 317 direct jobs.

Harcourt, River State, Nigeria. The plant will be located in the Eleme’s existing industrial complex and will use 38 ha of land out of the 235 ha of surplus land currently available. Urea will be sold in export (80% to 50%) and domestic market (20% to 50%). Targeted markets are Nigeria, South Africa, Ghana, Benin, USA, Brazil, UK and India. Other project components will include: (i) a 84km pipeline; and (ii) a multipurpose jetty and terminal infrastructure at Onne Port (16km from project site). The project will address one of the significant constraints to agriculture growth and development in Nigeria (and the entire African Continent) which remains the lack of adequate fertilizer utilization. It will have a direct effect on the rate of economic development and is fundamental to sustainable economic growth for the FGN. Its total cost is estimated at USD 1.2 billion.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet consiste en la construction et l’exploitation d’une usine de production d’engrais par conversion de gaz en urée d’une capacité de 1,4 MTPA, qui sera située à Port Harcourt, dans l’État de River au Nigeria. L’usine sera implantée dans le complexe industriel existant d’Eleme et occupera une surface de 38 ha sur les 235 ha de terrain excédentaire actuellement disponible. L’urée sera vendue à l’exportation (80 % à 50 %) et sur le marché local (20 % à 50 %). Les marchés ciblés sont le Nigeria, l’Afrique du Sud, le Ghana, le Bénin, les États-Unis, le Brésil, le Royaume-Uni et l’Inde. Le projet lèvera un des grands obstacles à la croissance et au développement agricoles au Nigeria (et sur l’ensemble du continent africain) qui reste l’utilisation insuffisante des engrais. Il aura un effet direct sur le rythme du développement économique et joue un rôle fondamental dans la politique du gouvernement fédéral du Nigeria pour instaurer une croissance économique durable. Son coût total est estimé à 1,2 milliard d’USD.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project aims to support "Indorama Eleme Fertilizer &amp; Chemicals Ltd Nigeria" to increase its urea fertilizer production capacity by more than 2.8 million tonnes.

Fidelity began operations in 1988 as Fidelity Union Merchant Bank Ltd, became a full service bank and public limited company in 1999 and converted into a universal bank in 2001. The proposed financing will provide much-needed medium-term liquidity to Fidelity and will therefore enable Fidelity to fund its projects pipeline and thus expand its loan portfolio, particularly in the manufacturing and infrastructure sectors. 20% of the LOC proceeds will be dedicated towards SMEs who, in accordance with the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) definition comprise of enterprises with a maximum asset base (excluding land and buildings) of N500 million (USD 3.18 million) and a maximum of 300 employees.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet consiste à accorder à Fidelity Bank Plc – Nigeria, une ligne de crédit (LC) d’une durée de sept années et d’un montant de 75 millions de $ EU, ainsi qu’une LC syndiquée d’un montant pouvant atteindre 75 millions de $ EU, dans la mesure du possible. Fidelity a commencé ses opérations en 1988 sous le nom de Fidelity Union Merchant Bank Ltd. Ensuite, elle est devenue une banque multiservices et une société anonyme en 1999. Depuis 2001, elle s’est érigée en banque universelle. Le financement proposé assurera à Fidelity la liquidité à moyen terme dont elle a tant besoin et lui permettra ainsi de financer sa réserve de projets et, partant, d’élargir son portefeuille, en particulier aux secteurs manufacturier et de l’infrastructure. Vingt pour cent (20 %) des ressources de la LC seront alloués aux PME, c’est-à-dire les entreprises dont la base de l’actif maximum (hormis les terrains et les bâtiments) s’élève à 500 millions de N (soit 3,18 millions de $ EU) et les effectifs à 300 employés au maximum, selon la définition de la Banque centrale du Nigeria (CBN).</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The purpose of the project is to strengthen the capacities of an indigenous bank to better serve its clients and increase the tenors of loans to subprojects. Specifically, the project will help to: i) reduce Fidelity’s asset-liability maturity mismatch; and ii) enhance Fidelity’s ability to provide medium-term lending.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet est de renforcer les capacités d’une banque locale afin de lui permettre de mieux servir ses clients et de prolonger la durée des prêts accordés aux sous-projets.

It will use waters in Lake Kivu. The border between Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo bisects Lake Kivu. The KivuWatt project is located wholly within Rwandan territory. The project extracts methane from the waters of Lake Kivu and use the gas to generate electricity that will be sold to the Rwanda electricity utility, Rwanda Electricity Corporation (RECO). Phase 1 of the project, which will generate 25MW, is expected to start commercial operation in 2012. The methane gas produced in Phase 1 will initially be used to power three gas engine generator sets, ‘Gas Extraction Facilities’ (GEFs). Phase 2 of the project, which will generate an additional 75 MW employing nine additional GEFs to expand KivuWatt to just over 100 MW of power, is expected to start construction six months after Phase 1 is commissioned.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet de centrale électrique de KivuWatt se situe à Kibuye, une localité du district de Karongi, dans la province de l’Ouest du Rwanda. Il exploitera les eaux du lac Kivu, qui se trouve à la frontière entre la République démocratique du Congo et le Rwanda. Le projet est entièrement situé en territoire rwandais. Il comprend l’extraction de méthane des eaux du lac. Ce gaz sera ensuite utilisé pour produire de l’électricité qui sera vendue à Rwanda Electricity Corporation (RECO), la société d’électricité du Rwanda. L’exploitation commerciale des 25 MW qui seront produits durant la première phase devrait débuter en 2012. Le gaz produit pendant la Phase 1sera d’abord utilisé pour alimenter trois générateurs à gaz, les « Installations d’extraction de gaz » (IEG). La deuxième phase du projet va générer 75 MW supplémentaires en utilisant 9 IEG supplémentaires, ce qui portera la quantité totale d’énergie produite par KivuWatt à un peu plus de 100 MW.

This is the first private sector project of the Bank in the energy sector in Senegal. Once completed, the Kounoune power station will make a major contribution to solving the problems of Senélec's energy supply deficit to domestic and industrial users. The project has three components, namely construction and the operation of a 67.5 MW diesel fuel station fueled by heavy fuel oil on the basis of a construction-ownership-operation (BOO) contract; the construction of a fuel supply pipeline (heavy fuel oil) linking the plant to the energy source and a substation linking the plant to the SENELEC network.

This is in line with the Togolese government’s sectorial policy for the 2009-2018 period. The project consists of expanding the existing facilities of the harbour in order to enable large container carriers to enter the port of Lomé and to subsequently distribute these containers to neighbouring countries on feeder ships. The building of this infrastructure will be carried out in two (2) phases. Phase I will consist of the construction of a 1,050 m-long dock wall looking inland with 3 docking places, and a 1,315 m-long dock wall facing the sea without equipment, as well as the preparation of a container storage area that looks inland (220,000 m²). The water depth in the inner harbor, the harbor basin and the access fairway will be at 16.60 m zero port.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet a pour objet la construction et l’exploitation d’un terminal à conteneurs au port de Lomé dans le cadre d’une concession accordée à la société Lomé Container Terminal (LCT). Il est conforme à la politique sectorielle du gouvernement togolais pour la période 2009-2018. Le projet consiste en l'extension des installations portuaires existantes afin de permettre l'entrée de grands porte-conteneurs dans le port de Lomé et de répartir ensuite ces conteneurs vers les pays limitrophes par des navires collecteurs (feeders). La construction de ces infrastructures sera réalisée en deux (2) phases. La phase I consistera en la construction d’un mur de quai côté terre long de 1050 m avec trois postes à quai et d’un mur de quai côté mer de 1315 m sans équipement et l’aménagement d’une surface pour le stockage de conteneurs côté terre (220 000 m²).

Indeed, Tunisia's two current airports, located in the north-east of the country, are either already saturated (Monastir Airport) or close to saturation (Tunis Carthage Airport). The project entails the construction, operation, and maintenance of a new airport in Enfidha, as well as the operation and maintenance of the existing Monastir Airport, in a standard project finance structure, under a 40-year Concession Contract. This project is the first concession in terms of transport in Tunisia and the first airport concession in the Maghreb region. The Enfidha concession agreement provides for a four phase construction program. The first phase, which is the subject of this support, concerns: (i) the rehabilitation and operation and maintenance of the existing Monastir Airport (which handled 4.2 million passengers in 2007) and (ii) the construction, operation and maintenance of the new Enfidha Zine El Abidine Ben Ali International Airport with an initial capacity of 7 million passengers. Both airports will serve the main tourist areas of Monastir, Sousse and Hammamet, located on the Mediterranean coast. Enfidha Airport is designed to provide a level of IATA Category B services.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet d’aéroport Enfidha s’inscrit dans le cadre des initiatives de modernisation et d’expansion des infrastructures aéroportuaires en Tunisie.

It will enable the construction of more than 14,000 new housing units and diverse types of commercial premises, encouraging job creation and providing new employment opportunities.

At present, about 90% of intra-African voice and data traffic is routed through Europe and North America at a cost of about USD 600 million per year. If these savings were passed on, then the price of telephone and Internet access would drop significantly for both the telecom operators and for domestic and commercial end-users in the region. The EASSy project will provide direct links between all the involved African countries and will bring immense economic and social development benefits to the continent.. All high-capacity traffic that originates or terminates from the Eastern or Southern African region to other Global networks will be carried through EASSy. EASSy will act as a medium of internet connectivity carrying telecom traffic for all African operators from the Eastern and Southern African markets to onward connecting Cable networks in Europe, Asia and the Americas. It would also ensure that the entire East coast of Africa has the necessary fibre-optic infrastructure in place to meet the ever increasing Telecom traffic demands of these EASSy countries.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr"/></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">Individuals, educational institutions and the health sector.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr"/></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>West Indian Ocean Cable Company</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2007-09-12" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2007-11-21" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2013-12-31" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2013-12-31" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COGH</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Willy Budibunene NGANDU</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Fin.

The East African Development Bank (EADB) is a regional development finance institution serving its three member states of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. The major objective of the EADB is to provide financial assistance to promote the development of its member states. The bank was mandated to operate in such fields as industry, tourism, agriculture, and infrastructure.  The proposed Bank project is to assist EADB to consolidate the results of its restructuring efforts, and address other areas of lingering weaknesses in its operations. The Project has two components. The first component consists of a Line of Credit of US$ 40 million, which would provide financial resources to the EADB to support and strengthen the institution’s lending capacity to enable it finance viable investment projects within the EAC. The second component provides technical assistance (TA) of UA 0.9 million to the EADB. The objective of the TA is to assist EADB to address identified weaknesses in its operations with a view to improving its operational and financial performances, thereby ensuring its ability to continue to provide valuable contributions to the economic and social development of its member states. Through the TA, the EADB would become a better institution with improved operational efficiency, and thereby higher capacity to provide quality services to its customers.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet d’appui de la Banque de développement de l’Afrique de l’Est (EADB) est la continuation de l’aide précieuse que la Banque a apportée à cette importante institution de financement du développement régional.

L'objectif principal de l'EADB est de fournir une assistance financière pour promouvoir le développement de ses États membres. La banque avait pour mandat d'opérer dans des domaines tels que l'industrie, le tourisme, l'agriculture et les infrastructures. Le projet proposé par la Banque est d’aider la BAD à consolider les résultats de ses efforts de restructuration, et aborder d'autres domaines de faiblesses persistantes dans ses opérations. Le projet a deux composantes. La première composante consiste en une ligne de crédit de 40 millions de dollars EU, qui fournirait des ressources financières à la BAD pour soutenir et renforcer la capacité de prêt de l'institution pour lui permettre de financer des projets d'investissement viables au sein de la CAE. La deuxième composante fournit une assistance technique (AT) de 0,9 million d'UC à la BAD. L'objectif de l'assistance technique est d'aider l'EADB à remédier aux faiblesses identifiées dans ses opérations en vue d'améliorer ses performances opérationnelles et financières, garantissant ainsi sa capacité à continuer à apporter une contribution précieuse au développement économique et social de ses États membres. Grâce à l’assistance technique, l’EADB deviendrait une meilleure institution avec une efficacité opérationnelle améliorée et de ce fait, une capacité accrue à fournir des services de qualité à ses clients.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of the EADB Support Project is to assist economic development and industrial growth, and facilitate stronger economic integration of the member countries of the East African Community (EAC) through the EADB.

Regional infrastructure projects, which would help promote stronger economic integration among the EAC countries would also be financed. The secondary beneficiaries of the LOC would be the new employees to be recruited by the primary beneficiaries, the participants in the local economies where the projects are located, as well as other firms providing inputs and services to the primary beneficiaries. While the EADB will be the primary beneficiary of the TA component of the project, the ultimate beneficiaries would be the project promoters financed by the LOC component.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les principaux bénéficiaires des ressources du LOC seraient des entités du secteur privé dans les secteurs de la fabrication, de l'agro-industrie, du tourisme et secteurs de services dans ces pays.

Des projets d'infrastructure régionaux, qui contribueraient à promouvoir une intégration économique plus forte entre les pays de la CAE, seraient également financés. Les bénéficiaires secondaires du LOC seraient les nouveaux employés à recruter par les principaux bénéficiaires, les participants dans les économies locales où sont situés les projets, ainsi que d’autres entreprises fournissant des intrants et services aux principaux bénéficiaires.

The participation in the capital increase aims at preserving the opportunity to give advice on the activities of the BOAD and to be involved in making important strategic decisions on the economic and social development of the sub-region. The line of credit is intended for the financing of private sector projects. The amount is 40 million Euros or 26.24 billion FCFA. It will enable BOAD to access resources in the medium and long term, given that the average duration of its issuance in the regional financial market is seven years, and private sector lending is eight years, on average. Institutional support consists of two components: (i) the reception at the Bank of BOAD Agents in the departments responsible for evaluation and risk management, accounting, treasury; (ii) compliance with IAS / IFRS international accounting standards. This support aims to preserve BOAD's financial performance in order to consolidate its role as a financial intermediary in the WAEMU zone.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est une proposition financière d’appui à la Banque Ouest Africaine de Développement (BOAD) qui comprend trois composantes : (i) une souscription à l’augmentation du capital, (ii) une ligne de crédit, et (iii) un appui institutionnel. La participation à l’augmentation du capital vise à préserver l’opportunité de donner des conseils sur les activités de la BOAD et d’être associée à la prise des décisions stratégiques importantes sur le développement économique et social de la sous région. La ligne de crédit est destinée au financement des projets du secteur privé. Le montant s’élève à 40 millions d’Euros soit 26,24 milliards FCFA. Elle permettra à la BOAD d’accéder à des ressources à moyen et long terme étant donné que la durée moyenne de ses émissions sur le marché financier régional est de sept ans, et celle des prêts au secteur privé est de huit ans, en moyenne. L’appui institutionnel comprend deux volets : (i) l’accueil à la Banque des Agents de la BOAD dans les départements chargés de l’évaluation et de la gestion des risques, de la comptabilité, de la trésorerie ; (ii) la mise aux normes comptables internationales IAS/IFRS.

Indeed, supply is below demand in all segments of the market, and governments are working to identify ways and means to address this issue, including greater use of private sector driven to fill the funding gap. The proposed financial support, including a Line of Credit (LOC), additional equity participation and technical assistance (TA), will assist Regional Member Countries (RMCs), SHAF and the Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) partners to deploy more sustained efforts, while complementing the Bank's current investment in SHAF and consolidating the partnership between the two institutions.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est un appui financier à la Société pour l'habitat et le logement en Afrique (Shelter-Afrique ou SHAF).

Ce projet d'appui à la SHAF est conçu pour apporter une réponse à l’importante demande non satisfaite d’habitat durable qui offre de nombreuses possibilités d’affaires à Shelter-Afrique.

Il s’agit d’un fonds à souscriptions privées d’une durée de vie de 8 ans, qui envisage d’engager 50 à 60 millions d’euros. Ce fonds vise à établir un système durable de prestation et de financement des soins de santé à travers de petits et moyens investissements de capitaux propres compris entre 0,25 et 5 millions d’euros dans des sociétés privées d’Afrique subsaharienne (ASS) opérant dans le secteur de la santé et des industries connexes. Etant donné que les actionnaires, fondateurs, directeurs et investisseurs du premier exercice résidaient pour la plupart aux Pays-Bas, le Fonds a été constitué durant son premier exercice en vertu du droit néerlandais. La Banque Africaine de Développement a été invitée à participer à cette deuxième phase de souscription du Fonds et sa participation permettra à l’IFHA d'investir dans la chaîne de valeur d’entreprises privées présentes dans le domaine de la santé, s’intéressant plus particulièrement aux organisations d’assurance médicale, aux structures de production pharmaceutique et aux chaînes de distribution. L’IFHA emploiera, à travers cette opération, près de 1 750 personnes – dont 750 personnels de la santé et plus de 850 femmes.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en"/><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif de l’IFHA est de créer des marchés de santé efficients en investissant et en renforçant près de 20-30 petites et moyennes entreprises du secteur de la santé en friche. Il envisage d’étendre l’accès aux soins à tout le continent (atteindre le chiffre de 450 000 nouveaux assurés) ; d’accroître l’utilisation des services de santé (atteindre le chiffre de 600 000 consultants externes) ; d’augmenter et de rationaliser la production et la distribution locales (étendre 4 chaînes de distribution, s’assurant qu’elles couvrent tout le pays) de produits pharmaceutiques de qualité conformes aux certificats standards de l’OMS.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en"/><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les principaux bénéficiaires

It aims to promote Africa's growth and competitiveness through improved infrastructure and capacity building. The proposed LoC will be used exclusively on USD-denominated project finance transactions in Africa but outside South Africa, with a particular focus on infrastructure. The pipeline of projects to be supported by the LoC is composed almost exclusively of projects in LICs. They will increase economic output, generate incremental government revenues and create employment.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est relatif à une ligne de crédit (LC) en devises à long terme pour l’appui aux opérations de financement des projets de la Standard Bank of South Africa (SBSA).

La LC proposée sera utilisée exclusivement pour le financement des opérations financières des projets libellées en dollars EU en Afrique, mais hors de l’Afrique du Sud, avec un accent particulier sur les infrastructures. Les projets qui seront financés au moyen de la LC comprennent presque exclusivement des projets des pays à faible revenu.

The line of credit is in line with the South African Government's strategy to promote the industrial sector in particular, and to assume economic development in general. IDC will use the proceeds of the LoC to on-lend to projects in its current lending pipeline or new projects that may arise in the near future.  IDC’s role as a financier of development projects across Africa is growing and is an integral part of its strategy. Typically, IDC will provide loans on a long-term basis, particularly in the case of infrastructure, often with an initial grace period and priced with a project-specific, risk-based lending margin over the reference index (i.e., LIBOR or EURIBOR). The pipeline of projects to be supported by the LoC is composed exclusively of projects in low income countries (LICs) and fragile states. This LoC will not be used for loans to small-and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Although the Bank’s previous LoCs provided funds for SME finance, IDC’s SME activity is concentrated in South Africa and also funded in ZAR.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet est une LdC de 200 millions de dollars EU visant à fournir un financement à long terme à l’Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa (IDC) pour le financement de projets à l’extérieur de l’Afrique du Sud. La ligne de crédit est conforme à la stratégie du Gouvernement sud-africain visant à promouvoir le secteur industriel en particulier, et à assumer le développement économique, en général. Les ressources de la LdC seront rétrocédées par IDC à des projets inscrits sur sa liste de transactions envisagées, ou à de nouveaux projets qui pourraient lui être soumis dans un proche avenir. Le rôle d’IDC en tant qu’institution finançant des projets de développement à travers l’Afrique ne cesse de croître et fait partie intégrante de sa stratégie. En principe, IDC accordera des prêts à long terme, particulièrement dans le domaine de l’infrastructure, qui seront souvent assortis d’une période de grâce initiale, ainsi que d’une marge définie pour chaque projet et en fonction du risque par rapport à l’indice de référence (LIBOR ou EURIBOR). La réserve de projets devant être financée par la LdC se compose exclusivement de projets situés dans des pays à faible revenu et des États fragiles. La présente LdC ne financera pas des prêts à des petites et moyennes entreprises (PME). Si les précédentes LDC de la Banque prévoyaient l’octroi de financements aux PME, l’activité d’IDC en matière de promotion des PME est concentrée en Afrique du Sud et financée en ZAR.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The LoC is designed to support IDC’s strategy to develop its financing activities outside South Africa.

Mining/processing operations located in the Northern Cape Province of South Africa, and the smelter operations in the Eastern Cape Province. The project proposes to establish a new manganese mine located on three contiguous sites: Umtu (2,000 hectares), Olivepan and Gama (both 4,500 hectares), which represent a total area of approximately 6,500 hectares (ha) in the province of North Cape, South Africa. The settlement area is bounded by the Kalahari manganese mine (KMF), the largest manganese deposit in the world. The mine would be designed to produce up to 3 million tonnes of ore per year and produce up to 1.5 million tonnes per year of finished products in normal operation. The mine could also produce other materials based on market demand. Alternative materials in this case refer to ferromanganese (HCFeMn), whether it is the primary product or its substitute, silicomanganese (SiMn). It is expected that the manganese produced by the project will be exported.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet industriel et d'enrichissement de Kalagadi est un projet intégré englobant l'extraction, le traitement et la fusion du minerai de manganèse.

The project will bring power from the Itezhi-Tezhi Power Company (IPTC) power plant to a new substation located in Mumbwa via a 220 kV single circuit line 142 km long, and to the West Lusaka substation via a 330-kV, 134-km dual-circuit line. Its implementation will bring benefits both locally and nationally, through expanded access to electricity and increased employment and social services. The construction of the plant should last 41 months and that of the transmission line 18 months. The cost of the plant will be US $ 239.05 million and the cost of the transmission line will be US $ 111.36 million.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet consiste en la construction, l’exploitation et l’entretien d’une centrale hydroélectrique de base de 120 MW au barrage d’Itezhi-Tezhi (ITT) sur le fleuve Kafue en Zambie, et d’une ligne de transport d’électricité devant permettre d’acheminer l’énergie vers les sous-stations proposées de Mumbwa et Lusaka-Ouest. Le projet permettra, en effet, d’acheminer l’énergie de la centrale de l’Itezhi-Tezhi Power Company (IPTC) vers une nouvelle sous-station située à Mumbwa via une ligne à circuit simple de 220 kV et longue de 142 km, et vers la sous-station de Lusaka-Ouest au moyen d’une ligne à double circuit de 330 kV et longue de 134 km. Sa mise en oeuvre procurera des avantages à l’échelon tant local que national, grâce à l’élargissement de l’accès à l’électricité ainsi qu’à l’accroissement des emplois et des services sociaux. La construction de la centrale devrait durer 41 mois et celle de la ligne de transport 18 mois. Le coût de la centrale s’élèvera à 239,05 millions de dollars EU et celui de la ligne de transport à 111,36 millions de dollars EU.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project aims to improve the availability of a reliable and sustainable electricity source, which will result in strong economic growth and serve as a catalyst for new investments.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet a pour objectif l’amélioration de la disponibilité d’une source d’électricité fiable et durable, qui se traduira par une forte croissance économique et servira de catalyseur à de nouveaux investissements.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The main beneficiaries of the project are the Government of Zambia and the populations of the four (4) districts of Itezhi-Tezhi, Mumbwa, Chibombo and Kafue, whose population was estimated at 819,440 at the 2010 census.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les principaux bénéficiaires du projet sont le Gouvernement de la Zambie et les populations des quatre (4) districts d’Itezhi-Tezhi, Mumbwa, Chibombo et Kafue, dont l'effectif a été estimé à 819 440 habitants au récenssement de 2010.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="ZM-COA-62" type="10"><narrative>Itezhi tezhi Power Corporation Limited</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-DBSA" type="40"><narrative>Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA)</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2012-06-13" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2014-04-14" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2018-12-31" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2018-04-14" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COZM</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Brenda MAWELE</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>b.mawele@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="ZM"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="920233"/><name><narrative>Chibombo</narrative></name><administrative code="3426" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="65174" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-14.6569 28.0706</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="7671220"/><name><narrative>Kafue district</narrative></name><administrative code="3430" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="65206" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-15.6199 28.4413</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="904422"/><name><narrative>Mumbwa</narrative></name><administrative code="3426" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="65178" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-14.98293 27.0619</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="915881"/><name><narrative>Kafue Dam</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-15.8 28.3167</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23320"><narrative>Coal-fired electric power plants</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.6" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

It creates jobs in Zimbabwe, particularly for women fish traders, and provides an important supply of affordable protein to the southern Africa region. This will be the AfDB Group’s first private sector investment in Zimbabwe, as part of its efforts to selectively re-engage in the country. Lake Harvest Aquaculture will produce 20,000 tons of fish annually. The company is primarily targeting African markets with Zimbabwe expected to absorb 37 percent of the production. It will export a further 50 percent to markets in the southern African region. Lake Harvest Aquaculture is considered by many experts to be a model for sustainable fish farming on the continent. The project is organized around three (3) main operations, namely: 1) breeding and rearing in fish ponds on land (Bakerton farm); 2) rearing in floating cages in the lake; and 3) a treatment plant Fish.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet Lake Harvest Aquaculture sur le lac Kariba au Zimbabwe est la plus grande pisciculture durable de tilapia en Afrique.

LAPO is an indigenous microfinance bank with a strong commitment to help the poor in Nigeria. It has extensive coverage in rural areas and more than 90% of its clients are female. The lack of medium-term local currency funding limits LAPO’s growth and product development. The proposed Naira facility will mitigate LAPO’s currency risk while enabling LAPO to increase its loan tenor and the coverage of unbanked individuals as well as micro and small enterprises. The proposed project complements existing PSOs in the financial sector as this project will focus on rural areas and poor households at the base of the pyramid. The proposed loan will be used solely for on-lending to LAPO’s clients (both individuals and MSMEs) and the loan agreement will govern the use of proceeds, disbursement triggers and other reporting requirements as well as environmental and social compliance.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet prévoit un financement à moyen terme pour aider la LAPO Microfinance Bank (LAPO) à mettre en œuvre son plan quinquennal d'expansion commerciale. LAPO est une banque de microfinance locale qui s'est fermement engagée à aider les pauvres au Nigeria. Elle dispose d'une couverture étendue dans les zones rurales et plus de 90 % de ses clients sont des femmes. Le manque de financement à moyen terme en monnaie locale limite la croissance de LAPO et le développement de ses produits. La facilité en naira proposée atténuera le risque de change de LAPO tout en lui permettant d'augmenter la durée de ses prêts et la couverture des personnes non bancarisées ainsi que des micro-entreprises et des petites entreprises. Le projet proposé complète les OSP existantes dans le secteur financier car il se concentre sur les zones rurales et les ménages pauvres à la base de la pyramide. Le prêt proposé servira uniquement à rétrocéder des fonds aux clients de LAPO (particuliers et MPME) et l'accord de prêt régira l'utilisation des fonds, les déclencheurs de décaissement et d'autres exigences en matière de rapports, ainsi que le respect des normes environnementales et sociales.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The proposed project will support scaling up LAPO’s clients to 5 million by 2017 while expanding its financial product offerings to include medium-term loans to micro enterprises and micro insurance.

It’s a hydroelectric plant of 420 MW, jointly designed by the Republic of Cameroon, EDF International (Electricity of France) and the IFC. The project is to be built on the Sanaga River, 65 km northeast of Yaoundé, which has Cameroon's largest hydropower potential. The plant should be connected to the Southern Interconnected Grid (RIS), which accounts for 94% of Cameroon's electricity consumption. The project also includes the construction of a 225 kV substation and a 50 km transmission line to the Nyom 2 connection station. Nachtigal will be the third project to benefit from the hydroelectric potential of the Sanaga River, after EDEA (276 MW commissioned in the 1950s) and Song Loulou (384 MW in the late 1970s). The project site has good all-season road access, which will facilitate the transportation of equipment during the construction phase. The hydroelectric facilities and the production substation are located in the same perimeter, while the transmission line is located in another perimeter.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention est relative au Projet Hydro-électrique de Nachtigal.

Le projet doit être construit sur le fleuve Sanaga, à 65 km au nord-est de Yaoundé, qui recèle le plus important potentiel hydroélectrique du Cameroun. La centrale devrait être reliée au Réseau interconnecté Sud (RIS) qui représente 94 % de la consommation électrique du Cameroun. Le projet prévoit également la construction d’un poste de départ de 225 kV, ainsi qu’une ligne de transport de 50 km jusqu’au poste de raccordement de Nyom 2. Nachtigal sera le troisième projet à bénéficier du potentiel hydroélectrique du fleuve Sanaga, après EDEA (276 MW mis en service dans les années 1950) et Song Loulou (384 MW à la fin des années 1970).

It’s an integrated mining and related transport infrastructure project encompassing (i) the development of a greenfield bauxite mine (including a raw water storage pond) in Sangaredi, Boké region of north-western Guinea, (ii) an upgrade to the existing multi-user rail system linking the Boké region to the Port of Kamsar and allowing for the transportation of the bauxite from the mine to the port terminal, and (iii) the development of a multi-user port in Kamsar including bulk material handling and loading, and container quay terminal. The project is expected to be completed in 2020, at which point a second phase will be developed with the construction of a 2 mtpa alumina refinery. The project had been initiated in 2001 under a different scope (mine development and alumina refinery) with Global Alumina, a junior Canadian mining company and BHP Billiton (Mubadala and Dubal being minority shareholders). The main components of the project concern the mine, the railway and the port.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur la voie ferrée et port de la mine de Boké. Il s’agit d’un projet intégré ciblant le secteur des mines et les infrastructures de transport connexes, avec un accent particulier sur les volets suivants : i) l’exploitation d’une nouvelle mine de bauxite (y compris un bassin de stockage d'eau brute) à Sangaredi, dans la région de Boké, au nord-ouest de la Guinée; ii) la rénovation de la voie ferroviaire multi-utilisateurs en place, qui relie la région de Boké au port de Kamsar et facilite le transport de la bauxite depuis la mine jusqu’au terminal du port ; et iii) l’aménagement d’un port multi-utilisateurs, y compris le traitement et le chargement de matériaux en vrac, ainsi que le quai pour les conteneurs. Le projet devrait s’achever en 2020, après quoi une deuxième phase sera lancée pour la construction d’une raffinerie d’alumine d’une capacité de 2 millions de tonnes par an, pour la phase II. Le projet a été lancé en 2001, avec une portée différente (exploitation minière et raffinerie d’alumine), en liaison avec la Global Alumina, une jeune société minière canadienne, et la société BHP Billiton (les actionnaires minoritaires étant Mubadala et Dubal).

It envisages extending a local currency Senior Loan of ZAR 140 million (USD 10m equivalent in ZAR) to ALCB Fund, with a term of 7 years including two (2) years grace period. The Fund invests throughout African countries and only in primary bond issuances by non-sovereign entities, focusing on high developmental sectors of financial institutions, renewable energy, housing, and agriculture. The proposed loan will include a two (2) year grace period followed by a five (5) year semi-annual repayment period and will be denominated and repaid in ZAR local currency. The African Development Bank will explore the most cost efficient option to mobilize the required ZAR based on the market conditions during execution/implementation through either the issuance of a ZAR bond in the domestic capital market or a cross currency swaps with market counterparty. Proceeds from the Bank’s Senior Loan will be utilized to grow the Fund’s local currency corporate bond portfolio of investments thereby creating opportunities for local African corporate issuers to access and diversify their long-term funding sources in local currency and to crowd-in local institutional investors. The proceeds of the loan shall be utilized by the Fund to grow its portfolio by acting as anchor investor in first time or innovate non-sovereign local currency bond issuances in the high development impact sectors.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Fonds africain d'obligations en devises locales (ALCB Fund) vise à promouvoir le développement du marché des capitaux locaux, l'accès au financement à long terme en monnaie locale et à attirer des investisseurs institutionnels nationaux. Il envisage d’étendre un prêt privilégié en monnaie locale d’un montant de 140 millions de ZAR (10 millions USD en ZAR) au Fonds ALCB, d’une durée de 7 ans avec un différé de grâce de deux ans. Le Fonds investit dans tous les pays africains et uniquement dans les émissions d’obligations primaires d’entités non souveraines, en se concentrant sur les secteurs à fort développement des institutions financières, les énergies renouvelables, le logement et l’agriculture. Le prêt proposé comprendra une période de grâce de deux (2) ans suivie d'une période de remboursement semestrielle de cinq (5) ans. Elle sera libellée et remboursée en devise locale (ZAR). La Banque Africaine de Développement étudiera l'option la plus rentable de mobiliser le ZAR requis en fonction des conditions du marché lors de l'exécution / de la mise en œuvre, soit par l'émission d'un emprunt ZAR sur le marché des capitaux national, soit par des échanges croisés avec une contrepartie du marché. Le produit de l’emprunt privilégié de la Banque servira à développer le portefeuille d’investissements en obligations d’entreprises en monnaie locale du Fonds, ce qui permettra aux émetteurs africains d’accéder et de diversifier leurs sources de financement à long terme en monnaie locale et de rassembler des investisseurs institutionnels locaux. Le fonds utilisera le produit du prêt pour développer son portefeuille en agissant pour la première fois en tant qu'investisseur principal ou en innovant dans le domaine des émissions d'obligations non souveraines en monnaie locale dans les secteurs à fort impact sur le développement.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of the Fund is to facilitate local currency corporate bond market development through (i) anchor investments of up to 30% of new bond issues; (ii) crowd in critical&#13;

The project seeks the participation of the African Development Bank for a business loan to Ethiopian Airlines to support its plan for expansion through the partial financing of new aircraft purchases. Ethiopian Airlines today operates a network of 94 destinations, including 52 in Africa, and contributes not only to its integration within the region, but also connect Africa to the rest of the world. More specifically, the Bank supports this program in the form of a corporate loan of 159 million dollars in order to ensure the partial financing of the first phase of the expansion program, consisting of the acquisition of 8 Airbus 350-900. This loan will allow Ethiopian Airlines to continue the modernization and expansion of its fleet to achieve the objectives set out in the strategy of its Vision 2025.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est une opération d’appui à Ethiopian Airlines qui met actuellement en œuvre un vaste plan d’expansion qui vise à renforcer sa flotte grâce à l’achat de nouveaux avions.

About 14,000 ha of degraded forest land has been acquired in Akumadan and Berekum, North of Kumasi, through a 50-year renewable land lease accompanied by tripartite commercial Benefit Sharing Agreements (BSA) between GoG, local communities and the project. The project will initially focus on production of billets, poles and high quality round logs for local and export markets. This project is an innovative opportunity to catalyze private sector involvement in climate change mitigation and green growth efforts by supporting a scalable concept in a region with high potential for demonstration and replication.

Près de 14 000 ha de terres forestières dégradées ont été acquises dans les disctricts d’Akumadan et de Berekum, au nord de Kumasi, avec un contrat de bail de 50 ans renouvelable et des Accords de Partage des Bénéfices Commerciaux (Benefit Sharing Agreements (BSA)) tripartites entre le GoG, les communautés locales et le projet. Le projet se concentrera dans un premier temps sur la production de billettes, poteaux et bois rond de haute qualité pour les marchés locaux et d'exportation.

The project is divided into four operational components, namely: (i) development of 4,000 net hectares of irrigated rice in the Senegal River Delta to produce 56,000 tons per year of paddy rice; (ii) contracts with farmers for the production of a minimum of 9,000 tons per year of paddy rice; (iii) storage capacity of 30,000 tons of paddy rice; and (iv) production and marketing of 45,000 tons of white rice per year on the local market. In terms of infrastructure, within the context of this project, two separate sites will be developed in the Municipality of Diama comprising community amenities with total control of water including a channel network calibrated for 3,500 ha, a collector-drainage network and an electric pumping station for drainage water covering a basin of 4,250 ha, power lines and tracks; an irrigated area of 2,024.5 ha for rice farming operated under local authorities control comprising plots, a network of irrigation canals and field drainage, and farm buildings; an agro-industrial site including a dryer, paddy rice storage silos and 2 milling lines with a capacity of 8t / h.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet rizicole de la Compagnie Agricole de Saint-Louis du Sénégal (CASL) a été initié dans le but de contribuer à l'autosuffisance alimentaire au Sénégal. Sa mise en oeuvre permettra d’augmenter la production de riz et de réduire les importations de nourriture, ce qui aura un impact positif sur la balance des paiements et la création d’emplois. Le projet devrait également permettre aux agriculteurs riverains d’avoir un accès à l’eau grâce à un réseau d’irrigation, et de bénéficier d’un soutien technique pour les aménagements. Il se décline en quatre composantes opérationnelles, à savoir: (i) le développement de quatre mille (4000) hectares nets de riziculture irriguée dans le delta du fleuve Sénégal afin de produire 56 000 tonnes par an de riz paddy; (ii) les contrats de production avec des agriculteurs pour un minimum de 9000 tonnes par an de riz paddy ; (iii) capacité de stockage de 30 000 tonnes de riz paddy ; (iv) la production et commercialisation de 45000 tonnes de riz blanc par an sur le marché local. En termes d’infrastructures, il s’agira, dans le cadre de ce projet, de réaliser sur deux sites distincts dans la Commune de Diama : des aménagements collectifs avec maîtrise totale de l’eau comprenant un réseau de chenaux calibré pour 3 500 ha, un réseau de collecteurs de drains et une station électrique d’exhaure des eaux de drainage couvrant un bassin de 4 250 ha, des lignes électriques et des pistes; un périmètre irrigué pour la riziculture de 2024.5 ha brut exploité en régie comprenant, des parcelles, un réseau de canaux d’irrigation et de drainage des pistes et des bâtiments d’exploitation; un site agro-industriel comprenant un séchoir, des silos de stockage du riz paddy et 2 lignes d’usinage d’une capacité unitaire de 8 t/h.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project’s objective is to promote food security in Senegal by producing local white rice for the local market.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'objectif du projet est de promouvoir la sécurité alimentaire au Sénégal en produisant localement du riz blanc pour le marché local.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project's direct beneficiaries are the agricultural producers of the Municipality of Diama.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les bénéficiaires directs du projet sont les producteurs agricoles de la Commune de Diama.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Compagnie Agricole de Saint Louis SENEGAL SA</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-EIB" type="40"><narrative>European Investment Bank (EIB)</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2016-06-22" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2016-07-26" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-07-31" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2026-07-25" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PINS</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Teddy Lucien ZAFINDRABOTOVAO</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Equity Management Officer, PINS</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>t.zafindrabotovao@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="SN"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2246451"/><name><narrative>Saint-Louis</narrative></name><administrative code="47589" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>16.3333 -15</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="32161"><narrative>Agro-industries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.9.4" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Industry -

Celui-ci, long de 25 km, est composé de plusieurs tronçons: (i) un cercle d’évitage permettant aux navires de réaliser la manœuvre d’évitage après chargement, de profondeur -17,5 m ; (ii) un chenal intérieur en site abrité, profondeur -17,5 à -18,0 m ; (iii) le passage du cap Blanc situé entre le cap Blanc et le banc du lévrier (exposé à de forts courants de marée), de profondeur -18,0 à – 20 m ; (iv) un chenal extérieur « zone 1 » faiblement protégé par les bancs de sable situés au sud du cap Blanc; (v) un chenal extérieur « zone 2 » très exposé aux houles du large. Le projet permettra à la SNIM d’améliorer sa compétitivité en augmentant sa capacité d’accueil de navire tout en réduisant ses coûts de transport. Il en découlera une augmentation significative de sa compétitivité avec des effets induits positifs sur la balance commerciale du pays et sur les réserves de devises.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project goal consists in the dredging of access channel to Nouadhibou port and optimization of equipment for ore loading at the port.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet consiste au dragage du chenal d’accès au port de Nouadhibou et optimisation des équipements pour le chargement du minerai au port.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will benefit the population of the city of Nouadhibou, in particular, and all the inhabitants of Mauritania, in general.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet bénéficiera à la population de la ville de Nouadhibou, en particulier, et à l’ensemble des habitants de la Mauritanie, en général.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="MR-COA-81" type="10"><narrative>SNIM -

It will foster financial sector development, enhance regional integration and contribute to government revenue generation at a time when the Ghanaian economy is faced with fiscal pressures and liquidity challenges. It will result in the provision of significant trade finance support to local businesses and SMEs in Ghana for longer tenors than generally available. Counting rollovers, the project is expected to facilitate approximately US $90 million of export-import related activity in intermediate and finished goods, raw materials and equipment to support economic growth. The proposed facility aligns with AfDB’s Ten Year and Regional Integration strategies, and particularly with the Bank’s Financial Sector Development Strategy which seeks to (i) increase access to financial services for the underserved and (ii) broaden and deepen Africa’s financial systems. It also aligns with the Bank’s Private Sector Strategy by (i) contributing to the improvement of the investment and business climate in Ghana by supporting UniBank with medium-term trade finance; (ii) promoting enterprise development in Ghana through increased access to appropriate trade finance for SMEs and local corporations.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet aidera à combler la forte demande du marché au Ghana en TF et liquidités en dollars grâce au soutien du commerce des entreprises autochtones et des PMEs dans les secteurs économiques vitaux tels que les exportations non traditionnelles, l'industrie agroalimentaire, la construction et l'industrie légère. Il favorisera le développement du secteur financier, améliorera l'intégration régionale et contribuera à la production de revenus du gouvernement à un moment où l'économie du Ghana est confrontée à des pressions fiscales et des problèmes cruciaux de liquidité. Il favorisera un soutien financier important aux entreprises locales et aux PMEs du Ghana qui disposeront désormais de plus longues durées de financement plus favorables que les mécanismes actuels. En tenant compte des refinancements, le projet devrait mobiliser près de $90 millions de dollars pour les activités liées à l’import-export des produits intermédiaires et finis, de matières premières et de matériel, et par conséquent soutenir la croissance économique. Cette facilité de paiement proposée s'intègre pleinement avec les Stratégies d'Intégration Régionale définies sur 10 ans de la BAD, notamment avec la Stratégie du Secteur Financier la Banque qui vise à (i) améliorer l'accès des populations aux services financiers et (ii) élargir et renforcer les systèmes financiers de l'Afrique. Elle s’inscrit également dans la stratégie du Secteur Privé de la Banque qui cherche à (i) contribuer à l'amélioration du climat des affaires et des investissements au Ghana en soutenant UniBank dans le financement du commerce à moyen terme ; (ii) la promotion du développement des entreprises au Ghana grâce à l'augmentation de l'accès à des services de financement du commerce pour les PMEs et les entreprises locales.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The main beneficiaries are SMEs and indigenous firms in Ghana.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les principaux bénéficiaires sont les PMEs et les entreprises autochtones au Ghana.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="GH-COA-053" type="10"><narrative>UniBank (Ghana )</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2015-10-14" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2016-07-14" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2017-10-03" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2017-03-22" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>SNOU</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Rita NAKYEYUNE</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, SNOU</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>r.nakyeyune@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="GH"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2306104"/><name><narrative>Accra</narrative></name><administrative code="1328" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="16621" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>5.55602 -0.1969</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="24030"><narrative>Formal sector financial intermediaries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.12.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Microfinance and financial services - Microfinance and financial services</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><default-flow-type code="21"/><default-finance-type code="421"/><default-tied-status code="5"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2016-07-14"/><period-end iso-date="2016-10-14"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2016-07-14">2593558.292500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2016-10-14"/><period-end iso-date="2017-01-14"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2016-10-14">2593558.292500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2017-01-14"/><period-end iso-date="2017-04-14"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2017-01-14">2593558.292500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2017-04-14"/><period-end iso-date="2017-07-14"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2017-04-14">2593558.292500</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000130014881"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2016-07-14"/><value value-date="2016-07-14">10374233.17</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>UniBank (Ghana )</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="421"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/en/projects-and-operations/P-GH-HAB-004" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-GH-HAB-004" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

This project involves the design, construction, operation and maintenance of a photovoltaic (PV) solar power plant with a nominal capacity of 50 MW in Benban area, 50 km north of Aswan City in Upper Egypt. It's one of Alcazar’s two projects under the FiT program.  The Project will be constructed in Benban, 40km north of Aswan (Egypt), where the direct solar radiation is 2,280 kWh/m2. The Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company (“EETC”) will construct the required substations and transmission lines with an interconnection cost of EGP 0.95m per MW. The Project Alcazar I is part of a larger Feed-in-Tariff (FiT) program initiated by the Government of Egypt in 2014 in order to reach the target of 20% renewable energy in the generation mix by 2020. The FiT program will add 4,300 MW to the country’s generation capacity from renewable sources. Otherwise, the polycrystalline technology based solar PV modules and single axis tracker system will be used for the power plant. The solar tracker will allow PV panels to track the movement of the sun to ensure maximum power output.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention porte sur la deuxième phase du projet de centrale solaire Alcazar. Ce projet comprend la conception, la construction, l'exploitation et la maintenance d'une centrale photovoltaïque (PV) d'une capacité nominale de 50 MW dans la région de Benban, à 50 km au nord d'Aswan, au Nord de l’Égypte. Il s'agit de l’un des projets d’Alcazar prévus au titre du programme égyptien FIT (Tarif de rachat - Feed-in-Tariff). Le projet sera construit à Benban, à 40 km au nord d’Aswan (Égypte) où la radiation solaire directe est de 2 280 kW/m2 . La Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company (EETC) construira les sous-stations et lignes de transport nécessaires pour un coût d’interconnexion de 0,95m LE par MW. Le projet Alcazar I sera mis en œuvre dans le cadre d’un vaste programme de tarif de rachat garanti lancé par le gouvernement égyptien en 2014 en vue d’atteindre l'objectif de 20% d'énergies renouvelables dans le mix énergétique d'ici 2020. Ledit programme ajoutera 4.300 MW à la capacité de production du pays à partir de sources renouvelables. Par ailleurs, les modules solaires photovoltaïques qui reposent sur une technologie polycristalline et le système de poursuite monoaxial seront utilisés pour la centrale électrique. Le pisteur solaire permettra aux panneaux photovoltaïques de suivre le mouvement du soleil pour assurer une puissance de sortie maximale.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of the project is the construction and operation of 50MW PV Plant in Ben Ban, Egypt.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'objectif du projet est la construction et l'exploitation d'une usine photovoltaïque de 50 MW à Ben Ban, en Égypte.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The main beneficiaries of the project are households, businesses, economic operators as well as electricity users.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les principaux bénéficiaires du projet sont les ménages, les entreprises, les opérateurs économiques ainsi que les utilisateurs d'électricité.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Delta For Renewable Energy S.A.E</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2017-09-04" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2017-10-11" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2023-05-31" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2023-12-31" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COEG</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Eshrak Alaaeldin Mohamed HELMY</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>e.helmy@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="EG"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="359787"/><name><narrative>Muhafazat Aswan</narrative></name><administrative code="1173" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="15555" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>23.3 32.9</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23230"><narrative>Solar energy</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.6" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

This is the first of its kind in Tunisia and North Africa. The TF LOC is part of the AfDB trade finance program launched in 2013. This facility, which is a stable source of financing, will enable BH to have the necessary liquidity in foreign currency, in difficult economic times, to pre-finance the acquisition of energy products, construction equipment, fertilizers, and production in key sectors such as manufacturing, construction, health, education, services and agriculture. The TF LOC will provide BH with medium-term resources to strengthen and intensify the Tunisian financial sector, thereby improving the economic environment in general and the access to finance for SMEs in particular. These resources will thus support the efforts of SMEs to increase exports and conquer new markets, in a sluggish economic environment for the banking sector as a whole, characterized by the drying up of liquidity and the tightening of credit. The project involves also technical assistance (TA) of EUR 1 million to improve the risk management system of BH and build its capacity to finance SMEs.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur une ligne de crédit de 60 millions d’Euros en faveur de la Banque de l’Habitat (BH) de Tunisie. Il s’agit de la première du genre en Tunisie et en Afrique du Nord. La ligne de crédit s’inscrit dans le cadre du programme de financement du commerce que la BAD a lancé en 2013. Cette facilité, qui constitue une source de financement stable, permettra à la BH de disposer des liquidités nécessaires en devises, dans une période économique difficile, pour préfinancer l’acquisition des produits énergétiques, des équipements de construction, des engrais, et des outils de production utilisés dans les secteurs clés tels que l’industrie manufacturière, le bâtiment, la santé, l’éducation, les services et l’agriculture. La ligne de crédit offrira à la BH des ressources à moyen terme destinées à renforcer et à intensifier le secteur financier tunisien, améliorant ainsi l’environnement économique en général et celui de l’accès aux financements des PME en particulier. Ces ressources vont ainsi permettre d’appuyer les efforts des PME pour accroître les exportations et pour conquérir de nouveaux marchés, dans une conjoncture économique morose pour l’ensemble du secteur bancaire, caractérisée par l’assèchement de la liquidité et le resserrement du crédit. Le projet prévoit également une assistance technique (AT) de 1 million d'EUR pour améliorer le système de gestion des risques de BH et renforcer sa capacité à financer les PME.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of this financing is to facilitate the Tunisian Housing Bank's strengthening of its international trade finance activities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and for small and medium-sized industries (PMI).

This financial package will be used for: i) on-lending to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating in various sectors of the Kenyan economy and to fund infrastructure projects and ii) supporting CBA’s trade finance activities particularly for the benefit of its SME and local corporate clients. Indeed, these SMEs, which play a key role in the Kenyan economy in terms of job and income generation and are considered to be the basis of Kenya's future industrialization process, face a number of challenges. These include: insufficient access to affordable financing, constraining regulatory environment for businesses, and limited access to modern scalable and affordable technologies. Moreover, the proposed Financial Package is well aligned with the country strategy and complements the efforts of the Kenyan Government (“GoK”) in supporting the development of local corporates and the SME sector.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est relatif à l'octroi d'une enveloppe financière d’un montant maximum de 90 millions de dollars à Commercial Bank of Africa, Kenya (CBA).

En effet, ces PME qui jouent donc un rôle essentiel dans l’économie kényane en termes de création d’emplois et de revenus et sont considérées comme constituant la base du processus d’industrialisation future du Kenya  sont confrontées à un certain nombre de difficultés. Ce sont notamment: l’accès insuffisant au financement à un coût abordable, un environnement réglementaire contraignant pour les entreprises et l’accès limité à des technologies modernes modulables et abordables.

Transnet is 100% owned by the Government of South Africa (GoSA), but is legally and financially autonomous. It's responsible for ensuring that the country’s transport and logistics system operates according to international standards. Transnet’s capital expenditure program (CEP) is focused on catalyzing economic growth and job creation in South Africa and the wider region. The program will improve productivity and consumption activity by connecting businesses to local and international trade. In rural areas, the program will result in cost effective and reliable transport for agricultural products, thereby supporting food security and rural employment. It’s involves investment of approximately ZAR 312.2 billion (US$ 27.5 billion) over seven years from 2013 to 2020 to repair, upgrade and expand infrastructure in order to improve South Africa’s efficiency and competitiveness in the transport sector. Approximately 51% of the total investment is intended for repair or replacement of existing infrastructure, while the balance will be used to build additional capacity.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet prévoit l'octroi d'un prêt de non garanti à Transnet State-Owned Company Limited, une société intégrée de transport et de logistique en Afrique du Sud, pour son programme de dépenses d'équipement glissantes sur sept ans.

This Africa SME Program is a 4-year USD 125 million program sponsored by the Bank to support local financial intermediaries’ (FIs) lending activities to SMEs in Africa. Specifically, It's expected to provide standardized lines of credit (LOCs) to at least 25 FIs for on-lending to SMEs. Beneficiary FIs could be banks or regulated non-bank financial institutions such as leasing and factoring companies, and microfinance institutions (MFIs). LOCs offered to MFIs are aimed at supporting their lending activities to SMEs (mainly to small enterprises) rather than micro-lending. In addition, the LOCs are expected to have a tenor of 4 to 7 years, a size ranging between USD 1 million and USD 9 million, and will be provided in local currency when possible. At least 65 per cent of the total available envelope targets low-income countries and fragile states.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet dénommé "Hannibal Lease" relative à une Ligne de Crédit d'un montant de 8 millions d’euros, s'inscrit dans le cadre du Programme PME pour l’Afrique. Ce Programme d’appui aux PME est un programme quadriennal doté d’un budget de 125 millions de dollars EU financé par la Banque pour soutenir les activités de prêt d’intermédiaires financiers (IF) locaux en faveur des PME d’Afrique. Plus particulièrement, il est censé octroyer des lignes de crédit (LdC) standards à au moins 25 IF pour une rétrocession en faveur des PME. Les IF bénéficiaires pourraient être des banques ou des institutions financières non bancaires réglementées, telles que les sociétés de crédit-bail et d’affacturage et des institutions de microfinance (IMF). Les LdC octroyées aux IMF visent à financer leurs activités de prêt en faveur des PME (essentiellement en faveur des petites entreprises) plutôt que les prêts aux microentreprises. De plus, les LdC devraient avoir une durée de 4 à 7 ans, une valeur comprise entre 1 million et 9 millions de dollars EU et être libellées en monnaie locale, si possible.

It's one of Alcazar’s two projects under the FiT program.  The Project will be constructed in Benban, 40km north of Aswan (Egypt), where the direct solar radiation is 2,280 kWh/m2. The Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company (“EETC”) will construct the required substations and transmission lines with an interconnection cost of EGP 0.95m per MW. The Project Alcazar I is part of a larger Feed-in-Tariff (FiT) program initiated by the Government of Egypt in 2014 in order to reach the target of 20% renewable energy in the generation mix by 2020. The FiT program will add 4,300 MW to the country’s generation capacity from renewable sources. Otherwise, the polycrystalline technology based solar PV modules and single axis tracker system will be used for the power plant. The solar tracker will allow PV panels to track the movement of the sun to ensure maximum power output.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet de centrale solaire Alcazar I comprend la conception, la construction, l'exploitation et la maintenance d'une centrale photovoltaïque (PV) d'une capacité nominale de 50 MW dans la région de Benban, à 50 km au nord d'Aswan, au Nord de l’Égypte.

The strategy focuses on the following main pillars: intra-African trade, industrialization and export development, and trade finance globally. The CF LDC will have a 4-year term, while the risk-sharing agreement should have a maturity of 3 years. Under the risk-sharing agreement, the Bank will guarantee up to 50% of the credit risk on a portfolio of trade finance transactions initiated by African issuing banks. Afreximbank will cover the risks for an amount greater than or equal to the Bank's contribution.

Cette stratégie s’articule autour des principaux piliers suivants : le commerce intra-africain, l’industrialisation et le développement des exportations, et le financement du commerce de façon globale. La LDC-FC aura une échéance de 4 ans, tandis que celle de l’accord de partage du risque devrait avoir une maturité de 3 ans. Au titre de l’accord de partage du risque, la Banque garantira jusqu’à 50 %, le risque de crédit sur un portefeuille d’opérations de financement du commerce initiées par des banques émettrices africaines. Afreximbank couvrira les risques pour un montant supérieur ou égal à la contribution de la Banque. La facilité proposée contribuera à remédier à la grave pénurie de financement du commerce dans les PMR, imputable en partie à la chute des prix des matières premières et à la contraction des réserves de change.

It complements the Bank's efforts to improve power generation, trade and transmission in the sub-region through the Côte d'Ivoire - Liberia - Sierra Leone - Guinea (CSLG) power interconnection project. The project, together with Azito IV, is primarily designed with the aim to replace the inefficient emergency plant of Aggreko (200 MW), Vridi plant (100 MW) and Ciprel I (99 MW).The project will also provide the necessary baseload backbone for the implementation of planned intermittent solar and hydro projects. In order to strengthen the Ivorian electricity network, the Atinkou power plant, built on a 30-hectare site, will have a capacity of 390 megawatts (MW). The project, to be carried out in two phases, calls for the construction of a 255 MW gas turbine within 18 months and the completion of the combined cycle, consisting of a 135 MW steam turbine and a heat recovery boiler, within 9 months. Eventually, the Taboth power plant will supply more than 2,800 gigawatts/hour of energy per year to the Ivorian power grid.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet de centrale au gaz de 390 MW d'Atinkou a été sélectionné par le gouvernement ivoirien comme projet prioritaire pour répondre aux besoins de production de base de la Côte d'Ivoire et renforcer son statut de premier exportateur d'énergie dans la région grâce à sa technologie à cycle combiné qui offre des niveaux de rendement uniques.

Corplease is a private joint stock company incorporated in December 2003 by Commercial International Bank (CIB) Egypt, DEG (Germany) and Union de Banques Arabes et Françaises. Since then, it has grown remarkably and established itself as a market leader in the leasing market in Egypt. The proposed facility will expand Corplease footprint in the local market, increase its competitive advantage by elongating the tenor of its financial services and lowering its cost of fund, and will target the most vital sectors in Egypt. The proposed support will enhance Corplease capacity to deliver on its strategic agenda, thereby benefitting numerous local corporates, including SMEs currently active in Egypt’s real economy. The facility will complement the Egyptian government and the AfDB efforts to create jobs, stimulate growth and create robust and self-sustaining financial markets. The transaction will assist an active player on the Egyptian capital market and a prominent leasing services provider in the country. It will therefore enable the company fund its projects pipeline and thus expand its leasing portfolio in Egypt on competitive terms.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente opération consiste en une facilité sous la forme d’un prêt privilégié d’un montant maximum de 15 millions d’USD destiné à appuyer l’expansion, par Corporate Leasing Company (« Corplease »), du crédit-bail aux entreprises nationales en Égypte, notamment les PME. Corplease est une entreprise privée de capitaux constituée en décembre 2003 par la Commercial International Bank (CIB) d’Égypte, la DEG (Allemagne) et l’Union de Banques Arabes et Françaises. Depuis lors, elle a connu une croissance remarquable et s’est imposée comme un chef de file du marché du crédit-bail d’Égypte. La facilité proposée permettra de renforcer la présence de Corplease sur le marché national, d’accroître son avantage concurrentiel en prolongeant l’échéance de ses services financiers et en réduisant le coût de son financement, et de cibler les secteurs les plus essentiels en Égypte. Le présent appui renforcera la capacité de Corplease à mettre en œuvre son programme stratégique et, partant, profitera à de nombreuses entreprises nationales, notamment les PME actuellement actives dans l’économie réelle d’Égypte. La facilité complétera les efforts déployés par le gouvernement égyptien et la BAD pour créer des emplois ainsi que des marchés financiers solides et autonomes, et stimuler la croissance. L’opération appuiera un acteur actif sur le marché égyptien des capitaux et un important prestataire de services de crédit-bail dans le pays.

Vista Bank is also working to deploy a new growth strategy that aims to gradually diversify the portfolio towards Guinean SMEs. It has 16 agencies in Guinea, including 9 in Conakry and 7 in the interior of the country; which together serve around 2,000 business customers, 80% of which are SMEs. This financial support should help support a dozen small and medium-sized enterprises microfinance institutions active in the agricultural value chain in Guinea. It is aimed primarily at women, who will benefit 60 percent of the resources of this line. Particular attention will therefore be paid to small and medium-sized enterprises in rural areas, operating in the agricultural, livestock and agro-pastoral processing sectors, as well as young agricultural entrepreneurs. Over half of the resources in this line of credit are for microfinance institutions, partners of Vista Bank and will cover the needs of over 3,000 microprojects. In addition, Vista Bank will provide entrepreneurs with support in the form of advice, technical support, management and training to maximize the success rate of the operation. The African Development Bank will also support Vista Bank in boosting the capacity of its agricultural credit officers, risk management, project management, environmental and social management systems, and management and reporting. development results.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur l’octroi d’une ligne de crédit de 8 millions de dollars américains au groupe bancaire Vista Bank en Guinée (Conakry). Vista Bank est une compagnie dotée d’une nouvelle marque et d’une vision unique. Outre la Guinée, elle détient des filiales bancaires en Sierra Leone et en Gambie ; et a pour ambition de créer un groupe panafricain de classe mondiale. Vista Bank s’emploie également à déployer une nouvelle stratégie de croissance qui vise la diversification progressive du portefeuille vers les PME guinéennes. Elle possède 16 agences en Guinée, dont 9 à Conakry et 7 à l’intérieur du pays ; qui ensemble servent environ 2 000 clients d’entreprises, dont 80% sont des PME. Ce soutien financier doit permettre d’accompagner une dizaine de petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) institutions de microfinance actives dans la chaine de valeur agricole en Guinée. Il vise en priorité les femmes, qui seront bénéficiaires à 60 % des ressources de cette ligne. Une attention particulière sera donc portée aux PME des zones rurales, opérant dans les secteurs de l’agriculture, de l’élevage et de la transformation agro-pastorale, ainsi qu’aux jeunes entrepreneurs agricoles. Plus de la moitié des ressources de cette ligne de crédit est destinée à des institutions de microfinance, partenaires de Vista Bank et permettra de couvrir les besoins de plus de 3 000 microprojets. En plus du financement, Vista Bank apportera aux entrepreneurs un accompagnement sous forme de conseil, d’appui technique, de gestion et de formation afin de maximiser le taux de succès de l’opération. L’appui de la BAD viendra également soutenir Vista Bank dans le renforcement des capacités de ses agents de crédit du secteur agricole, la gestion des risques, la gestion de projets, les systèmes de gestion environnementale et sociale ainsi que la gestion et les rapports des résultats en matière de développement.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project is intended to contribute to the improvement of the living conditions of the Guinean populations.

One hundred per cent of the LoC placed at its disposal will be on-lent to SMEs, 72M of them in rural areas. This will help to unlock access to financing for the very vulnerable populations, thereby fostering wealth and local job creation, indispensable for reducing poverty and curbing rural exodus. Since 57% of the LoC will be on-lent to microfinance institutions active in rural areas and working with youth, this will help to finance over 3,000 micro-projects developed by women and youth especially in the handicrafts and agriculture sectors and help to develop Guinea’s agricultural potential. Vista Bank will lend the LoC to 9 SMEs whose value creation will impact 1,051 additional people. Among them, 624 will have direct jobs, 100 others temporary jobs and 327 smallholders’ associations will have market outlets for their agricultural produce. Forty-five per cent of these smallholders’ associations will be women’s associations, involved in the whole value chain, from production to sale on markets.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La facilité proposée devrait générer de solides résultats en matière de développement. 100% de la LdC mise à la disposition de Vista sera prêtée à des PME, dont 72% en zones rurales.

Par ailleurs, 57% de la ligne sera prêtée à des institutions de micro finance actives en zones rurales et auprès des jeunes. Cela permettra de financer plus de 3 000 micros projets portés par des jeunes et des femmes notamment dans le secteur de l’artisanat et de l’agriculture, contribuant à valoriser le potentiel agricole de la Guinée.

The loan, which has a five-year maturity with a two-year grace period, marks the first proposal under the Bank’s new initiative to prop-up SMEs in Africa. Credit Bank (CBP) is privately-owned bank, established in 1985 and dedicated to propelling SMEs’ growth through financing and capacity building initiatives. It is financially sound and, as an adequately capitalized tier-3 financial institution, has a strong track record of SMEs, providing working capital and trade finance facilities.  As such it is well-positioned to succeed in providing innovative longer term financial solutions to SMEs along several value chains including strategical financial solutions in Kenya. Credit Bank has the supporting infrastructure and a strong presence in key economic regions within Kenya and is expected to support several small businesses in rural areas, thereby producing substantial development impact. CBP’s client base of 25,000 comprises primarily of SMEs operating in the manufacturing, energy, infrastructure, health, agribusiness, trade and communications sectors. Currently, it is funded mainly from deposits. The LoC will diversify its funding base and reduce its funding cost. The facility also fits well with the financial sector development policy and strategy and will contribute to the Bank’s Jobs for Youth Programme and the Affirmative Finance Action for Women in Africa programme. A significant share of the proceeds of the loan are expected to flow through to the labourintensive agriculture value-chain in rural areas thus spurring job creation. It is expected that approximately 10% of the proceeds of the LoC will be dedicated to women-owned enterprises.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est un financement ciblé de 8 millions d'USD à la Banque de crédit du Kenya pour des prêts exclusivement aux petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) dans la construction, l'agriculture, les énergies renouvelables et la fabrication. Le prêt, d'une durée de cinq ans avec un délai de grâce de deux ans, est la première proposition dans le cadre de la nouvelle initiative de la Banque pour soutenir les PME en Afrique. La Credit Bank (CBP) est une banque privée, créée en 1985, qui se consacre à la promotion de la croissance des PME par le biais d'initiatives de financement et de renforcement des capacités. Elle est financièrement saine et, en tant qu'institution financière de niveau 3 adéquatement capitalisée, elle a une solide expérience des PME, en fournissant des fonds de roulement et des facilités de financement du commerce.  En tant que telle, elle est bien placée pour réussir à fournir des solutions financières innovantes à long terme aux PME le long de plusieurs chaînes de valeur, y compris des solutions financières stratégiques au Kenya. Credit Bank dispose de l'infrastructure de soutien et d'une forte présence dans les régions économiques clés du Kenya et devrait soutenir plusieurs petites entreprises dans les zones rurales, produisant ainsi un impact substantiel sur le développement. La base de clients du CBP, qui compte 25 000 personnes, se compose principalement de PME opérant dans les secteurs de la fabrication, de l'énergie, des infrastructures, de la santé, de l'agroalimentaire, du commerce et des communications. Actuellement, elle est financée principalement par des dépôts. La Ligne de Crédit va diversifier sa base de financement et réduire son coût de financement. La facilité s'inscrit également dans la politique et la stratégie de développement du secteur financier et contribuera au programme "Emplois pour les jeunes" de la Banque et au programme d'action financière positive pour les femmes en Afrique. Une part importante du produit du prêt devrait être affectée à la chaîne de valeur de l'agriculture à forte intensité de main-d'œuvre dans les zones rurales, ce qui stimulera la création d'emplois.

It seeks to enhance the borrower’s capacity to expand its lending activities to MSMEs and local corporates across various countries in Africa. The subdebt will have a tenor of eight years inclusive of a grace period of five years in order to align with tier II qualifications as guided by Central Bank of Kenya Prudential Guidelines. The subdebt will bolster EGH’s interventions in key sectors including agriculture, manufacturing and trade across countries of operation through its prowess of delivering funding to otherwise financially excluded business segments/ groups such as MSMEs, women and youth. EGH was initially known for its lending to SMEs and its focus on this business segment at a time when hitherto mainstream lenders were downsizing and scaling down on SME lending. EGH has widened its coverage to include micro enterprises as evidenced by its service offering to the unbanked in camps for internally displaced persons and refugees in Uganda, Rwanda and Kenya.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet proposé porte sur l’octroi à Equity Group Holdings Plc (EGH) d’une créance subordonnée de catégorie 2 sous forme de prêt subordonné d’un montant de 100 millions d’USD. Il vise à renforcer la capacité de l’emprunteur à étendre ses activités de prêt aux MPME et aux entreprises locales dans divers pays d’Afrique. Le prêt subordonné aura une durée de huit ans, dont un différé d’amortissement de cinq ans, afin de s’aligner sur les critères de niveau II, conformément aux directives prudentielles de la Banque centrale du Kenya. Ce prêt subordonné donnera un coup de fouet aux interventions de EGH dans des secteurs clés - agriculture, industries manufacturières et commerce - dans tous les pays d’intervention, grâce à sa capacité à octroyer des fonds à des secteurs ou groupes qui sont autrement exclus financièrement, notamment les MPME, les femmes et les jeunes. EGH était initialement connu pour l’octroi de prêts aux petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) et pour sa concentration sur ce secteur d’activité, à une époque où les prêteurs traditionnels réduisaient leurs activités ainsi que les prêts aux PME. EGH a étendu son activité aux microentreprises, comme l’atteste la prestation de services aux personnes non bancarisées installées dans des camps de déplacés à l’intérieur de leur propre pays et de réfugiés en Ouganda, au Rwanda et au Kenya.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The purpose of the project is to facilitate the regional expansion of the Equity Group Holdings Plc (“EGH”) with a view to expanding its support to Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) businesses across East, Central and Southern Africa, contributing to regional integration, industrialization, job creation and inclusive growth.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet est de favoriser l’expansion régionale d’Equity Group Holdings Plc («EGH») pour lui permettre d’élargir son appui aux micro, petites et moyennes entreprises (MPME) de l’Afrique de l’Est, central et australe, contribuant ainsi à l’intégration régionale, à industrialisation, à la création d’emplois et à la croissance inclusive.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The direct beneficiary of the intervention is the EGH. Indeed, the facility will complement the support of the African Development Bank (AfDB) to EGH in the form of long-term project financing through the Kenyan subsidiary. The facility will also improve the provision of long-term financing to worthy market segments, including MSMEs, women and young people.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le bénéficiaire direct de l’intervention est l’EGH. En effet, la facilité viendra compléter l’appui de la Banque Africaine de Développement (BAD) à EGH sous la forme d’un financement de projet à long terme par l’intermédiaire de la filiale kényane.

The Sahofika Project consists of the design, construction and operation of a 200 MW hydroelectric power plant on the Onive River, 100 km southeast of Antananarivo (Madagascar). Hydraulic and civil engineering works will eventually increase the capacity to 300 MW. The project also includes the construction of a 63 km transmission line between Antananifotsy and the site, a camp near the power plant, and 6 km of access roads. Construction is expected to take five years. It is expected to produce approximately 1,570 GWh per year. The power plant guarantees a base load capacity of 192 MW (95%), including during the dry season. However, the civil works are designed to allow for an extension to about 300 MW at lower cost. The project is being developed under a Build-Operate-Own-Transfer (BOOT) contract which provides for the design, financing, construction, operation and management of the hydroelectric plant under a 35-year concession agreement and a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA). The concession agreement will be concluded between the project company - Nouvelle énergie hydroélectrique de l'Onive (NEHO or the project company) - and the Malagasy State represented by the Ministry of Water, Energy and Hydrocarbons, while the PPA will be signed between the National Water and Electricity Company of Madagascar (JIRAMA) and NEHO.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente Garantie partielle de risque pour le projet d’aménagement hydroélectrique de Sahofika de 192 MW vise à fournir une garantie partielle du risque de défaut de paiement de la JIRAMA. Le projet Sahofika consiste en la conception, la construction et l’exploitation d’une centrale hydroélectrique de 200 MW sur l’Onive, à 100 km au sud-est d’Antananarivo (Madagascar). Les travaux hydrauliques et de génie civil permettront à terme de porter la capacité à 300 MW. Le projet prévoit aussi la construction d’une ligne de transport d’électricité de 63 km entre Antanifotsy et le site, d’un camp près de la centrale, et de 6 km de routes d’accès. La construction devrait durer cinq ans. Il devrait produire environ 1 570 GWh par an. La centrale garantit une puissance de base de 192 MW (à 95 %), y compris pendant la saison sèche. Les travaux de génie civil sont toutefois conçus pour permettre une extension à environ 300 MW à moindre coût. Le projet est en cours d’élaboration dans le cadre d’un contrat de construction-exploitation-possession-transfert (CEPT) qui prévoit la conception, le financement, la construction, l’exploitation et la gestion de la centrale hydroélectrique en vertu d’un accord de concession de 35 ans et d’un contrat d’achat d’électricité (CAE). L’accord de concession sera conclu entre l’entreprise du projet — Nouvelle énergie hydroélectrique de l’Onive (NEHO ou la société de projet) — et l’État malagasy représenté par le Ministère de l’Eau, de l’Énergie et des Hydrocarbures, tandis que le CAE sera signé entre la compagnie nationale d’eau et d’électricité de Madagascar (JIRAMA) et la NEHO.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of the ADF Partial Risk Guarantee (PRG) is to provide risk mitigation to the private developers and the debt providers to mitigate the payment risk of the off-taker (JIRAMA).

It constitutes the Continent’s single largest FDI to-date and the largest project financing in Africa. The sheer volume of gas discovery and expected LNG production will place Mozambique in the third rank of global LNG suppliers. The Project will source gas from the Golfinho-Atum (GA) field within “Area 1,” which is located 40 KM off the coast of Mozambique. Area 1 has ~75 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of recoverable gas, implying a resource life of ~120 years at the initial production rate of 12.88m tonnes of LNG per year. The Project will supply gas for LNG exports (mainly to Europe and Asia) and domestic consumption, thereby fuelling industrial development in the country and the larger southern Africa region.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet de la zone 1 du Mozambique prévoit la construction d’une usine de gaz naturel liquéfié (GNL) d’une capacité de production de 12,88 mtpa, notamment des installations d’extraction en mer, de gazoduc, de traitement et de liquéfaction du gaz, ainsi qu’un terminal d’exportation de GNL, une infrastructure primaire de fourniture de gaz domestique et d’autres installations connexes. Il constitue, à ce jour, le plus gros IDE sur le continent et la plus importante opération de financement de projet en Afrique. Le simple volume de gaz découvert et la production prévue de GNL placeront le Mozambique au troisième rang des fournisseurs mondiaux de GNL. Le projet s’approvisionnera en gaz à partir du gisement de Golfinho-Atum dans la « zone 1 », qui est située à 40 km au large des côtes mozambicaines. La zone 1 renferme environ 75 billions de pieds cubes de gaz récupérable, ce qui implique une durée de vie des ressources d’environ 120 ans au taux de production initial de 12,88 millions de tonnes de GNL par an. Le projet fournira du gaz pour l’exportation (principalement vers l’Europe et l’Asie) et la consommation intérieure de GNL, alimentant ainsi le développement industriel du pays et de la région de l’Afrique australe.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of the project is to build and operate a Greenfield 12.88 MTPA LNG plant in Mozambique.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet est de construire et exploiter une nouvelle usine de GNL de 12,88 mtpa au Mozambique.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will benefit the Mozambican Government as well as the entire population.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet bénéficiera au Gouvernement Mozambicain ainsi qu’à l’ensemble de la population.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-11-21" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2020-06-11" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PITD3</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Yves Laurent Didier WITHOFS</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, PITD3</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>y.withofs@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="MZ"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="1040652"/><name><narrative>Maputo</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-25.9655 32.5832</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLC"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23340"><narrative>Natural gas-fired electric power plants</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.6" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

InfraCredit is a private company, established in 2016 to enhance local currency debt instruments - mainly bonds, to finance eligible infrastructure projects in Nigeria. This is intended to uplift the credit rating of such bonds, allowing institutional investors to include them in their portfolios. InfraCredit aims to support up to $1.25 billion in infrastructure financing over the next few years, by involving the private sector in infrastructure financing, essential to Nigeria’s economic resilience. The investment package to InfraCredit is comprised of a subordinated loan of $10 million and a risk sharing facility of up to $5 million. The Bank’s support will strengthen the capital base of InfraCredit, underpinning the expansion of the Company’s core business of guaranteeing of bonds issued to fund infrastructure projects. This ultimately helps to increase private sector financing for critical infrastructure projects in key sectors including energy, agriculture, water, health and education, through local capital markets. The transaction will also result in the leverage and enhancement of the scope and impact of the Bank’s interventions alongside private sector financing, especially from pension funds as well as from co-investment partners. This intervention adds to the Bank’s existing initiatives to mobilize domestic institutional savings and stimulate non-sovereign local debt capital market development in Nigeria.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur un paquet d'investissement de 15 millions de dollars à la Société de garantie de crédit pour les infrastructures (InfraCredit), en vue de soutenir le financement des infrastructures par le biais des marchés de capitaux de la dette intérieure au Nigeria. InfraCredit est une société privée créée en 2016 pour renforcer les instruments de dette en monnaie locale - principalement des obligations - afin de financer des projets d'infrastructure éligibles au Nigeria. L'objectif est d'améliorer la notation de ces obligations, en permettant aux investisseurs institutionnels de les inclure dans leurs portefeuilles. InfraCredit vise à soutenir jusqu'à 1,25 milliard de dollars de financement d'infrastructures au cours des prochaines années, en impliquant le secteur privé dans le financement des infrastructures, essentiel à la résilience économique du Nigeria. Le programme d'investissement d'InfraCredit comprend un prêt subordonné de 10 millions de dollars et une facilité de partage des risques pouvant atteindre 5 millions de dollars. Le soutien de la Banque renforcera la base de capital d'InfraCredit, en soutenant l'expansion de l'activité principale de la société qui consiste à garantir les obligations émises pour financer des projets d'infrastructure. Cela contribue en fin de compte à accroître le financement du secteur privé pour les projets d'infrastructure essentiels dans des secteurs clés tels que l'énergie, l'agriculture, l'eau, la santé et l'éducation, par le biais des marchés de capitaux locaux. L'opération aura également pour effet d'accroître et d'améliorer la portée et l'impact des interventions de la Banque parallèlement au financement du secteur privé, en particulier des fonds de pension et des partenaires de co-investissement. Cette opération s'ajoute aux initiatives existantes de la Banque pour mobiliser l'épargne institutionnelle nationale et stimuler le développement du marché des capitaux de la dette locale non souveraine au Nigeria.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The investment boosts InfraCredit’s qualifying capital base through the subordinated loan; it also improves its capacity to expand its guarantee business through the proposed risk sharing arrangement.

Cogebanque is a commercial bank licensed and regulated by the National Bank of Rwanda (BNR). It was incorporated on July 17, 1999, and operates across the country. The project seeks to provide a financial package comprising: (a) A Subordinated debt3 amounting to USD 10 million with a tenor of 8 years, including five (5) years’ grace period. This will strengthen Cogebanque’s capital in the form of Tier II capital and provide it with a capital cushion for it to continue implementing its Strategic Plan, which involves significant growth in its customer base, banking infrastructure as well as loans and deposits base. (b) A targeted, thematic, Line of Credit (LoC) amounting to USD 4 million with a tenor of 8 years, including two (2) years’ grace period. This facility will enable Cogebanque fund its project pipeline in the manufacturing, and agriculture and energy sectors. Tight liquidity conditions and lack of depth in Rwanda’s financial markets make it difficult for Rwandan banks to source funding for medium to long term projects. This operation presents to the Bank a timely opportunity to work with an FI whose operations and outlook, will enhance development outcomes. The lending will avail important longer-term resources to growth-oriented SMEs focused in agribusiness and manufacturing in Rwanda and therefore enhance private sector development.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur un financement thématique, à long terme, spécialisé et ciblé en faveur de la Cogebanque, dont le produit sera utilisé pour appuyer les activités des prêts octroyés aux PME opérant dans des secteurs porteurs de transformation au Rwanda. La Cogebanque est une banque commerciale accréditée et réglementée par la Banque nationale du Rwanda (BNR). Elle a été constituée le 17 juillet 1999, et couvre l’ensemble du pays. Au titre du projet, la Banque devrait proposer à la Cogebanque un montage financier comprenant : (a) un prêt subordonné3 de 10 millions d’USD, à une échéance de huit ans éventuellement assortie d’un différé d’amortissement de cinq (5) ans. Cette facilité permettra à la Cogebanque d’augmenter ses fonds propres de catégorie 2 et de disposer d’un coussin de fonds propres pour poursuivre la mise en œuvre de son plan stratégique qui prévoit une forte croissance de sa clientèle, de son infrastructure bancaire, et des prêts et dépôts; (b) une ligne de crédit thématique et ciblée d’un montant de quatre millions d’USD, avec une échéance de huit ans assortie d’un différé d’amortissement de deux ans. Cette facilité permettra à la Cogebanque de financer sa réserve de projets dans l’industrie manufacturière, ainsi que dans les secteurs de l’agriculture et de l’énergie. Des conditions de liquidité restrictives et le manque de profondeur dans les marchés financiers du Rwanda font qu’il devient difficile pour les banques du pays de trouver des financements pour des projets à moyen et à long terme. Grâce à la ligne de crédit proposée, la Cogebanque pourra adapter le profil d’échéance de sa réserve de projets à ses sources de financement. La présente opération offre ainsi à la Banque une occasion idoine de travailler avec une institution financière dont les opérations et les perspectives amélioreront les résultats en matière de développement. La facilité de prêt permettra de mettre des ressources importantes à long terme à la disposition de PME axées sur la croissance, qui interviennent dans l’agro-industrie et dans le secteur manufacturier au Rwanda, l’objectif étant de renforcer le développement du secteur privé dans ce pays.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will enhance Cogebanque’s capacity to: (i) implement its Five Years’ Strategy Plan; (ii) bolster its balance sheet, hence, enhance its capacity to intermediate and expand its loan book through its on lending activities; and (iii) reduce its asset/liabilities maturity gap as it seeks to enhance its lending to SMEs. At the macro level, the facility will contribute towards: (i) promoting private sector development: (iii) broad-based economic growth through job creation, increased productivity and enhance household incomes; (ii) reducing financing constraints faced by Rwandan SMEs operating in the real sector (manufacturing, and agriculture and energy sectors): and (iii) complement GoR’s efforts to expand and transform Rwanda’s economy.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La facilité servira à renforcer la capacité de la Cogebanque à : i) mettre en œuvre son plan stratégique quinquennal ; ii) soutenir son bilan, ce qui permettra de renforcer ses capacités à jouer son rôle d’institution intermédiaire et élargir son portefeuille de prêts au moyen de ses activités de prêt ; et iii) réduire l’écart de durée entre le portefeuille d’actif et le portefeuille de passif, étant donné qu’elle cherche à accroître ses prêts aux PME. Au niveau macro, la facilité contribuera : i) à la promotion du développement du secteur privé ; ii) à une croissance économique à grande échelle par la création d’emplois, à l’augmentation de la productivité et à l’accroissement des revenus des ménages ; iii) à la réduction des contraintes financières subies par les PME rwandaises opérant dans les secteurs réels (industrie manufacturière, agriculture et énergie) ; et iv) au renforcement des efforts déployés par le gouvernement rwandais pour faire croître et transformer l’économie du pays.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The main project beneficiary is Cogebanque which is an indigenous financial institution and a key player in the corporate and SME banking segment in Rwanda.

The AfDB longer tenor funds will allow Cogebanque to meet its customers’ borrowing requirements particularly in industries where long-term funds are scarce/ unavailable due to the perceived risk profile of SMEs.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet bénéficiera essentiellement à la Cogebanque qui est un établissement financier local et une actrice majeure du secteur des services bancaires aux grandes entreprises et aux PME.

Elnefeidi Group is a privately-owned entity operating since 1934 and incorporated in 2008 in Sudan. The company is present in several African countries. The corporate loan is to part-finance Elnefeidi’s multi-country Food and Agriculture Expansion Program (FAEP) between 2020-2027 for a global cost of USD 183 million. The program mainly targets Sudan but also countries in central and east Africa, which are all eligible to the Private Sector Credit Enhancement Facility (PSF). The planned expansion includes increasing agricultural productivity, enhancing related infrastructure, food processing and distribution. It will directly contribute in developing Sudan’s livestock value chain (poultry and beef) by increasing the country’s export capacity for value-added livestock products. This will help reduce the economic value that the country loses by exporting millions of live animals each year. This facility to Elnefeidi Group is another demonstration of the African Development Bank’s continued support and strong commitment to enable, deepen, and empower the private sector in Sudan, as an engine of economic and inclusive growth. This is also consistent with Sudan’s National Agriculture Investment Plan, which seeks to achieve agriculture-linked growth, largely through private investments.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur un prêt d'entreprise de 60 millions d'USD d'une durée de 8 ans (y compris un délai de grâce maximum de 2 ans) pour soutenir le programme d'expansion agricole et alimentaire du Groupe Elnefeidi. Le Groupe Elnefeidi est une entité privée opérant depuis 1934 et constituée en 2008 au Soudan. La société est présente dans plusieurs pays africains. Le prêt vise à financer une partie du programme d'expansion pour l'alimentation l'agriculture (FAEP) d'Elnefeidi, dans plusieurs pays, entre 2020 et 2027 et d’un coût global de 183 millions USD. Le programme cible principalement le Soudan, mais aussi les pays d'Afrique centrale et de l’est, qui sont tous éligibles à la Facilité de rehaussement de crédit du secteur privé (FSP). L'expansion prévue comprend l'augmentation de la productivité agricole, le renforcement des infrastructures connexes, la transformation et la distribution des aliments. Elle contribuera directement au développement de la chaîne de valeur du bétail soudanais (volaille et bœuf) en augmentant la capacité d'exportation du pays pour les produits d'élevage à valeur ajoutée. Cela contribuera à réduire la valeur économique que le pays perd en exportant des millions d'animaux vivants chaque année. Cette facilité accordée au groupe Elnefeidi est une nouvelle preuve du soutien continu et de l'engagement ferme de la Banque africaine de développement pour permettre, approfondir et renforcer le secteur privé au Soudan, en tant que moteur de la croissance économique et inclusive. Cela est également conforme au plan national d'investissement dans l'agriculture du Soudan, qui vise à réaliser une croissance liée à l'agriculture, en grande partie grâce à des investissements privés.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">Elnefeidi will use the funds to enhance its agricultural productivity and improve its food processing, infrastructure and distribution capabilities.

COCOBOD is a fully state-owned company solely responsible for Ghana’s cocoa industry, controlling the purchase, marketing and export of all cocoa beans produced in the country. The objective of the PEPs is to roll out a set of measures that will improve productivity per hectare and increase cocoa production levels well above 1 million tonnes per year (versus an average of 800,000 tonnes per year over the last ten years). The PEPs will mainly entail measures to sustainably increase plant fertility; develop irrigation systems;  rehabilitate  aged  and  disease-infected  farms;  increase  warehouse  capacity;  and  create  an integrated farmer database. The programmes will also provide short-term working capital support to local cocoa-processing companies, thus facilitating domestic value addition and consumption of cocoa products in Ghana. This long-term investment would help to boost cocoa production through the rehabilitation of ageing plantations, finance new warehouses to store cocoa beans longer and boost the processing of cocoa beans. The Bank is expected to play two roles in this transaction; namely (i) acting as initial Mandated Lead Arranger (MLA) ; and (ii) providing up to a maximum amount of USD 150 million secured senior loan to catalyze the participation of commercial lenders, given their customary limited risk appetite for tenures longer than the one-and three-year facilities that they have been accustomed to providing to COCOBOD.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente opération porte sur un prêt syndiqué de 600 millions de dollars sur 7 ans (150 millions de dollars de la Banque et 450 millions de dollars d'autres institutions financières) à "Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD)" pour financer les principaux éléments de ses programmes d'amélioration de la productivité (PEP). Le COCOBOD est une société entièrement détenue par l'État, responsable de l'industrie du cacao au Ghana, qui contrôle l'achat, la commercialisation et l'exportation de toutes les fèves de cacao produites dans le pays. L'objectif des PEPs est de mettre en place un ensemble de mesures qui permettront d'améliorer la productivité par hectare et d'augmenter les niveaux de production de cacao bien au-delà d'un million de tonnes par an (contre une moyenne de 800 000 tonnes par an au cours des dix dernières années). Les PEP comporteront principalement des mesures visant à accroître durablement la fertilité des plantes, à développer les systèmes d'irrigation, à réhabiliter les exploitations agricoles anciennes et infectées par des maladies, à augmenter la capacité d'entreposage et à créer une base de données intégrée sur les agriculteurs. Les programmes fourniront également un soutien à court terme en matière de fonds de roulement aux entreprises locales de transformation du cacao, facilitant ainsi l'ajout de valeur et la consommation intérieure de produits à base de cacao au Ghana. Le présent investissement à long terme contribuera à stimuler la production de cacao par la réhabilitation des plantations vieillissantes, à financer de nouveaux entrepôts pour stocker les fèves de cacao plus longtemps et à stimuler la transformation des fèves de cacao. La Banque devrait jouer deux rôles dans cette transaction, à savoir (i) agir en tant qu'arrangeur principal mandaté (MLA) initial ; et (ii) fournir un prêt de premier rang garanti d'un montant maximum de 150 millions de dollars US pour catalyser la participation des prêteurs commerciaux, étant donné leur appétit habituel pour le risque limité pour des durées plus longues que les facilités d'un et trois ans qu'ils ont l'habitude de fournir au COCOBOD.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">COCOBOD will use the facility to raise cocoa yields per hectare and increase Ghana’s overall production.

Les agriculteurs se voient garantir un minimum de 70 % du prix net mondial franco à bord (FOB) du cacao pour leurs produits.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>COCOBOD</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-AGTF" type="40"><narrative>Africa Growing Together Fund</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2018-11-27" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-11-12" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2022-12-31" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-06-18" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>RDGS</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Herbert HUNGWE</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>h.hungwe@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="GH"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2306104"/><name><narrative>Accra</narrative></name><administrative code="1328" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="16621" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>5.55602 -0.1969</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="31110"><narrative>Agricultural policy and administrative management</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.3.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Agriculture -

Redstone's capacity will be increased, with a thermal storage potential increased to 12 hours (1,200 MWh), a relatively economical option compared to battery storage used in photovoltaic solar power plants. The thermal storage system will allow the Redstone CSP (100 MW) to operate at full capacity for 12 hours in the absence of solar radiation (after sunset or on temporary cloudy days). The project will provide the country with access to clean energy and reduce peak-hour production costs, and will be carried out by experienced private sector developers and contractors, particularly ACWA and Solar Reserve.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet de Centrale Solaire à Concentration (CSP) de Redstone a été conçu en vue de la conception, la construction, l’exploitation et l’entretien d’une centrale solaire à concentration d’une capacité de 100 MW.

It is well aligned with the Bank’s mandate to support the development of clean energy technologies and private sector development within Africa. The project site of around 15km² is located on West river bank of the Nile, about 800 km South of Cairo, 15km from the 1.6 GW Benban solar park in Egypt. The Project scope includes a 4km access road, connecting the site to the Cairo-Aswa and construction is expected to last 10 months. The Bank provides a senior loan of up to USD 27.22 million with a tenor of up to 20 years which is not available from commercial sources. It complements other Bank’s operations in the energy sector in Egypt including the recent budget support to boost private sector investment in the energy sector and the 2017 facilities extended to the Egypt FiT projects (Alcazar, Delta and Shapoorji). Successful implementation of the project will enable diversification of the energy mix and further the green growth agenda of the bank. This project primarily contributes to climate mitigation results. As such, 100% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet consiste en la conception, la construction et l’exploitation d’une nouvelle centrale solaire photovoltaïque de 200 MWac qui sera réalisée en mode « construction, détention et exploitation » (BOO). Il est en parfaite conformité avec le mandat de la Banque, qui est de soutenir le développement de technologies énergétiques propres et le développement du secteur privé en Afrique. D’une superficie d’environ 15 km², le site du projet est situé sur la rive ouest du Nil, à environ 800 km au sud du Caire, à 15 km du parc solaire de Benban (1,6 GW) en Égypte. Le projet inclut une route d’accès de 4 km, reliant le site à l’autoroute Le Caire-Assouan, et une sous-station MT/HT pour évacuer l’électricité vers le réseau national. La construction devrait durer 10 mois. La Banque fourni un prêt privilégié d’un montant maximum de 27,22 millions d’USD, d’une durée maximale de 20 ans, qui ne peut être obtenu auprès de sources commerciales. Ce financement s’ajoute à d’autres opérations de la Banque dans le secteur de l’énergie en Égypte, notamment le récent soutien budgétaire visant à stimuler les investissements du secteur privé dans ce secteur et les financements accordés en 2017 aux projets de rachat d’électricité produite (Alcazar, Delta et Shapoorji). Une mise en œuvre réussie du projet permettra de diversifier le bouquet énergétique et de faire avancer le programme d’action en matière de croissance verte de la Banque. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation au climat. Ainsi, 100 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 100 % dédiés à l'atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project will increase Egypt’s installed power generation capacity from renewable sources, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Natural rubber production has traditionally been concentrated in Asia, but rubber growing is now developing in West Africa, and the Paris-based SIPH Group, founded in 1905, has been the main player in this development. As part of its development strategy on the West African market, SIPH has launched an investment programme of nearly EUR 210 million. This programme involves (i) increasing industrial processing capacity for natural rubber, and (ii) renewing and expanding existing rubber plantations. The programme aims to contribute to the industrial development of Côte d'Ivoire, Nigeria, Ghana and Liberia where the Group owns several production units. The senior loan comprises two tranches: (i) a EUR 15 million tranche with a 6-year maturity (including a one-year grace period) and a EUR 15 million tranche over 10 years (including a four-year grace period). The Bank's contribution will primarily be used to finance the SIPH investment programme in Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana as described in the table below. However, part of the funds may be mobilised for certain investments (CAPEX) in Nigeria and Liberia. The goal is to increase local processing capacity to reduce SIPH's dependence on external processing capacity, generally located in Asia. The project, which aims to transform rubber trees into natural rubber for export to international markets, will help to industrialise the West African rural areas concerned and to create zones of sustainable prosperity that actively foster the creation of wealth and employment for local communities, thereby limiting rural exodus.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet est un prêt entreprise d’un montant maximum de 30 M€ destiné à participer au plan d’investissement stratégique de la Société internationale de plantations d’hévéas (SIPH) dont l’activité principale est la production, la transformation, et la commercialisation du caoutchouc naturel. La production de caoutchouc naturel est traditionnellement concentrée en Asie, mais l’hévéaculture se développe maintenant en Afrique de l’Ouest, et le Groupe SIPH fondé en 1905 et domicilié à Paris, a été le principal acteur de ce développement. Dans le cadre de sa stratégie de développement sur le marché ouest-Africain, la SIPH a lancé un programme d’investissement de près de 210 millions d’euros. Ce programme porte sur : (i) l’augmentation de la capacité de traitement industriel de caoutchouc naturel et (ii) le renouvellement des plantations existantes d’hévéa et leur extension. Le programme vise ainsi un développement industriel en Côte d’Ivoire, au Nigeria, au Ghana et au Liberia où le Groupe détient des unités de production. Le prêt senior est composé de 2 tranches : (i) une tranche de 15 M€ d’une maturité de 6 ans (assortie d’une période de grâce de 1 an) et une tranche de 15 M€ sur 10 ans (assortie d’une période de grâce de 4 ans). L’apport de la Banque sera principalement destiné à financer le programme d’investissement de la SIPH en Côte d’Ivoire et au Ghana tel que décrit dans le tableau ci-dessous. Une partie des fonds pourra néanmoins être mobilisée pour certains investissements (CAPEX) au Nigéria et au Libéria. L’objectif est d’augmenter les capacités de transformation locales afin de réduire la dépendance de SIPH vis-à-vis des capacités de transformation externes localisées généralement en Asie. Le projet qui vise la transformation de l’hévéa en caoutchouc naturel pour exportation vers les marchés internationaux permettra d’industrialiser les zones rurales concernées en Afrique de l’ouest et d’y créer des zones de prospérité durable favorisant activement la création de la richesse et d’emplois aux communautés locales, et limitant de fait les exodes ruraux.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">SIPH's objective is to develop natural rubber processing capacity on the continent by processing the raw material locally to reduce the Group's dependency on external milling capacity generally located in Asia (i.e. more than 40% of African production is now exported for processing in Asia). The key investment components entail (i) increasing the capacity of processing natural rubber latex through construction of two plants in Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana; and (ii) renewing ageing rubber trees and expanding plantations in Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria and Liberia.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif de SIPH est de développer les capacités de transformation de caoutchouc naturel sur le continent en valorisant la matière première localement afin de réduire la dépendance du Groupe vis-à-vis des capacités d’usinage externes généralement localisées en Asie (i.e. Plus de 40% de la production africaine est aujourd’hui exportée pour transformation en Asie). Le Projet s’articule autour des principaux objectifs suivants : i) accroître la capacité de transformation du latex de caoutchouc naturel par la construction de deux usines en Côte d’Ivoire et au Ghana ; et ii) renouveler les hévéas vieillissants et étendre les plantations en Côte d’Ivoire, au Ghana, au Nigeria et au Liberia.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project aims to increase SIPH’s processing capacity from 260,000 tons in 2019 to about 448,000 tons by 2025, and expand the output of its own plantations from 72,000 tons in 2019 to 100,000 tons by 2027. SIPH is a major employer in West Africa, with over 12,000 workers in 4 countries. Approximately 1,200 direct full-time jobs are expected to be created in the course of the investment programme, in addition to a large number of indirect jobs throughout the value chain in remote areas. Furthermore, the project will enable the development of a local natural resource and generate foreign exchange earnings for Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Nigeria and Liberia. The Group is also a major social player at the local level with actions in favour of communities: more than 120 pre-primary and primary schools, 25,000 children enrolled, more than 15,000 housing units, 78 social/medical centres, dispensaries, maternity wards and infirmaries accessible to staff and all village communities. The rubber tree being a forest species and therefore less vulnerable to climate variability, the project will strengthen the resilience of farms to climate change, while contributing to the intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) of the four countries to emission reduction.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet doit permettre à la SIPH d’accroître la capacité de transformation de 260 000 tonnes en 2019 à environ 448 000 tonnes en 2025, tout en portant la production de ses propres plantations de 72 000 tonnes en 2019 à 100 000 tonnes en 2027. SIPH est un employeur important en Afrique de l’Ouest, fort d’un effectif de plus de plus de 12.000 employés sur 4 pays. Il est attendu un minimum de 1.200 emplois directs plein temps sur l’ensemble du programme d’investissement auxquels s’ajoutent de très nombreux emplois indirects attendus sur toute la chaine de valeur dans des régions reculées. En outre, le projet permettra de valoriser une ressource naturelle locale, et d’engranger des gains de change pour les 4 pays que sont la Cote d’Ivoire, le Ghana, le Nigeria, et le Liberia. Le Groupe est par ailleurs un important acteur localement avec des actions en faveur des communautés : plus de 120 écoles primaires et préscolaires, 25 000 élèves scolarisés, plus de 15 000 logements, 78 centres médico sociaux, dispensaires, maternités et infirmeries accessibles à l’ensemble des communautés villageoises. L’hévéa étant une essence forestière, donc moins vulnérable aux variabilités climatiques, le projet permettra de renforcer la résilience des exploitations agricoles au changement climatique, tout en contribuant aux contributions nationales déterminées (CDN) des 4 pays en matière de réduction des émissions.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Société Internationale de Plantations d'Hévéas (SIPH)</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2021-03-10" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2022-01-15" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PINS2</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Daniel Constant M'PENG BAYOI</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>d.m-bayoi@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2293537"/><name><narrative>Abidjan</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>5.41667 -4.03333</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="7669298"/><name><narrative>Monrovia</narrative></name><administrative code="1824" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="39216" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>6.31418 -10.7336</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2352778"/><name><narrative>Abuja</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>9.05735 7.48976</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2300569"/><name><narrative>Accra</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>5.75 0</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="32110"><narrative>Industrial policy and administrative management</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.9.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Industry -

The project is a holistic program that addresses some of the remaining constraints for the Bank Group to reach a very critical mass of the African population – its farmers. The facility to address the challenges will introduce several innovative instruments and structures namely: (a) independent fund management for initial supply driven identification and technical due diligence stages of processing; (b) technical assistance to bring proposals to bankability (c) first loss portfolio guarantees; and (d) pay for performance contract structures. The project main components are (i) concept and prefeasibility Stage; (ii) Facility implementation and supporting documents and (iii) TA assistance operations ramp-up.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La Facilité pour le financement de l'agriculture en Afrique (FAFINA) vise à favoriser la transformation de l'agriculture du continent, de l'agriculture comme mode de vie à l'agriculture comme entreprise. Le projet est un programme holistique qui s'attaque à certaines des contraintes qui empêchent encore le Groupe de la Banque d'atteindre une masse critique de la population africaine - ses agriculteurs. Pour relever les défis, la facilité introduira plusieurs instruments et structures innovants, à savoir : (a) une gestion indépendante des fonds pour l'identification initiale de l'offre et les étapes de traitement de la diligence raisonnable technique ; (b) une assistance technique pour rendre les propositions bancables ; (c) des garanties de portefeuille de première perte ; et (d) des structures contractuelles de paiement pour la performance.

Technical Assistance Project for Leveraging Investment for Africa from Asian Private Corporations</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Multinational - Projet d'assistance technique visant à attirer les investissements des entreprises privées asiatiques vers l'Afrique</narrative></title><description type="1"><narrative xml:lang="en">The proposed operation is a Technical Assistance Project for Leveraging Investment for Africa from Asian Private Corporations. The project will be implemented with proceeds of Fund for African Private Sector Assistance (FAPA), which is generously financially contributed by the Government of Austria and the Government of Japan. Indeed, Africa’s expanding market and its huge economic potential, together with the initiatives of the governments of Asian countries and public financial institutions for business development in Africa such as TICAD (Tokyo International Conference on African Development), investment in Africa has gained momentum. African Diplomatic Corps (ADCs), a body formed by the African diplomatic missions, based in the 4 Asian member countries are also doing investment promotional activities for Asian private sector. By taking advantages of the dynamics of calling for investment from Asia and Africa, SNAR, together with ADCs investment promotion committees, will implement a 3 years project to initiate and originate the AfDB’s projects of Non-Sovereign Operations (NSOs) from Asia. The project components are: (i) Providing knowledge seminar for ADCs investment promotion committees on financial products and services provided by financial institutions, especially Asian public financial institutions and the Bank; (ii) Reinforcing investment promotion committees’ functions towards public and private stakeholders based in the Asian Non-RMCs; (iii) Identifying and preparing opportunities of financial intervention by financial institutions, especially the Bank and Asian public financial institutions as a leverage to crowd in investment.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention porte sur un projet d'assistance technique visant à attirer les investissements des entreprises privées asiatiques vers l'Afrique. Le projet sera mis en œuvre grâce aux recettes du Fonds d'aide au secteur privé africain (FAPA), qui est généreusement financé par le gouvernement autrichien et le gouvernement japonais. En effet, l'expansion du marché africain et son énorme potentiel économique, ainsi que les initiatives des gouvernements des pays asiatiques et des institutions financières publiques pour le développement des entreprises en Afrique, telles que la TICAD (Conférence internationale de Tokyo sur le développement de l'Afrique), ont donné un élan aux investissements en Afrique. Le Corps diplomatique africain (CDA), un organisme formé par les missions diplomatiques africaines, basé dans les 4 pays membres asiatiques, mène également des activités de promotion des investissements pour le secteur privé asiatique. En tirant parti de la dynamique d'appel aux investissements en provenance d'Asie et d'Afrique, le SNAR, en collaboration avec les comités de promotion des investissements des CDA, mettra en œuvre un projet de 3 ans pour lancer et faire naître les projets d'opérations non souveraines (ONS) de la BAD en Asie. Les composantes du projet sont : (i) Organisation d'un séminaire de connaissances pour les comités de promotion des investissements des CDA sur les produits et services financiers fournis par les institutions financières, en particulier les institutions financières publiques asiatiques et la Banque ; (ii) Renforcement des fonctions des comités de promotion des investissements vis-à-vis des acteurs publics et privés basés dans les pays asiatiques non membres des PMR ; (iii) Identification et préparation des possibilités d'intervention financière des institutions financières, en particulier de la Banque et des institutions financières publiques asiatiques, comme levier pour attirer les investissements.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The indicative goal of the project is to provide capacity building program for investment promotion committees of ADCs based in the Asian Non-Regional Member Countries, so that ADCs can reinforce its pivotal role in calling for investment to Africa with the AfDB’s financial intervention as a "leverage” to crowd in Asian private finance to Africa, and thereby contributing to increase investment to Africa from the Asian Non-RMCs.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'objectif indicatif du projet est de fournir un programme de renforcement des capacités pour les comités de promotion

financière de la BAD comme "levier" pour attirer les financements privés asiatiques vers l'Afrique, et contribuer ainsi à accroître les investissements en Afrique en provenance des pays asiatiques non

This support is in line with the Bank's Strategic Framework for Regional Integration for the period 2018-2025, particularly in its Pillar III on financial integration. The objective of this pillar is to help Financial Institutions to become regional players and develop a regional financial system aimed at mobilizing more domestic savings to meet the needs of the productive sector. It is also aligned with the Regional Integration Strategy Paper for Central Africa (DSIR-AC) for the period 2019-2025. The Programme is structured around three components, namely, the operationalisation of the unified financial market, the mobilisation of domestic savings and the strengthening of human capital on stock market instruments. This intervention will be complemented by those of the other technical and financial Partners, in particular the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention concerne un don de 976000 euros de la Banque africaine de développement (BAD) sur les ressources du Fonds d’assistance technique en faveur des pays à revenu intermédiaire (FAT-PRI)  et FAPA en vue du financement du Projet d’appui au démarrage du marché financier unifié d’Afrique centrale. Cet appui est en droite ligne avec le Cadre stratégique pour l’intégration régionale de la Banque pour la période 2018-2025, notamment dans son pilier III portant sur l’intégration financière.

type="1"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project is a EUR 100 million, Cocoa Pre-Export and Value-Chain Finance Facility to support SUCDEN CI’s participation in cocoa value chain in Cote d’Ivoire. SUCDEN CI is wholly owned subsidiary of SUCRE &amp; DENREES Group (SUCDEN SA), one of the world’s leading global soft commodity producer and aggregator headquartered in Paris, France. The Bank previously had granted a EUR 100 million facility to SUCDEN CI and its performance under that arrangement was satisfactory. The facility enabled SUCDEN CI to double its pre-financing and support small cooperatives and wholesalers (covering more than 7,500 small-scale farmers) thereby impacting positively the cocoa industry in Cote d’Ivoire. The proposed project is a package of three successive one-year facilities for a maximum exposure of EUR100 million at any given time during the tenor of the facility. This facility will allow the Bank to reach local cooperatives and thus the small farmers, without directly taking the risks on those entities, but through a seasoned commodity aggregator with sound knowledge in the cocoa industry and is able to take and manage the risks that come along in the sector. The pre-financing is expected to assist local suppliers, farmers grow their revenues, produce quality crops and develop drying, and storage facilities that will help them obtain better value for their produce.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention porte sur une facilité de financement en appui aux activités préalables à l’exportation et à la chaîne de valeur du cacao d’un montant de 100 millions d’euros pour soutenir la participation de SUCDEN CI à la chaîne de valeur du cacao en Côte d’Ivoire. SUCDEN CI est une filiale en propriété exclusive du Groupe SUCRE &amp; DENREES (SUCDEN SA), l’un des premiers producteurs et agrégateurs mondiaux de matières premières agricoles, dont le siège social est basé à Paris, France. La Banque avait précédemment accordé une Facilité d’un montant de 100 millions d’euros à SUCDEN CI et les résultats obtenus dans le cadre de cet accord ont été satisfaisants. Cette facilité a permis à SUCDEN CI de doubler ses préfinancements ainsi que de soutenir les petites coopératives et les grossistes (couvrant plus de 7500 petits exploitants agricoles), réalisant ainsi un impact positif sur la filière cacao en Côte d’Ivoire. Le présent projet est un ensemble de trois facilités successives d’une durée d’un an pour une exposition maximale de 100 millions d’euros à tout moment pendant la durée de la Facilité. Cette Facilité permettra à la Banque d’atteindre les coopératives locales et donc les petits exploitants agricoles, sans prendre directement les risques sur ces entités, mais par l’intermédiaire d’un agrégateur de produits de base expérimenté possédant de solides connaissances dans la filière cacao et capable de prendre et de gérer les risques qui se présentent dans ce secteur. Le préfinancement devrait aider les fournisseurs locaux et les exploitants agricoles à accroître leurs revenus, à produire des cultures de qualité et à construire des installations de séchage et de stockage qui leur permettront de mieux valoriser leurs produits.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of the proposed Cocoa Pre-Export and Value-Chain Support Finance Facility is to assist in the development of the cocoa value chain in Côte d’Ivoire by providing financing to SUCDEN CI.

The Ghana Beyond Aid Charter calls for the establishment of “a new National Development Bank that is strong enough to mobilize domestic and foreign long-term private capital, in addition to Government’s contributions, toward agricultural and industrial transformation. This institution, which will operate as a wholesale bank, using a private sector model, will provide financial institutions with long-term financing to accelerate industrialization and agricultural modernization.” The Project is also aligned with Ghana’s COVID-19 Alleviation and Revitalization of Enterprises Support (CARES) program that identifies the expansion of access to finance for Ghanaian businesses as one of the key measures for economic revitalisation and transformation. This is an African Development Fund (ADF) grant of UA 28.39 million to the Republic of Ghana to further capitalise the Development Bank Ghana (DBG), a newly established development finance institution (DFI). The main component of the Project is capital enhancement. This will help strengthen the balance sheet of this national DFI and enhance its capacity to provide much-needed support to businesses in Ghana through the following main instruments/channels: (i) Funding to Participating Financial Institutions (PFIs) to on-lend to the private sector; (ii) Technical assistance to PFIs; (iii) Partial Credit Guarantee (PCG).</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet s’inscrit dans la vision « Beyond Aid » (Après l’aide) du Ghana, et apporte un appui au gouvernement dans ses efforts pour relancer l’économie dans l’après-COVID-19. Le Programme « Ghana Beyond Aid » (le Ghana après l’aide) préconise la création « d’une nouvelle banque nationale de développement suffisamment robuste pour mobiliser des capitaux privés à long terme, nationaux et étrangers, en plus des contributions du gouvernement, en vue de la transformation agricole et industrielle. Cette institution, qui fonctionnera comme une banque de grande clientèle, sur le modèle du secteur privé, fournira aux institutions financières des financements à long terme pour accélérer l’industrialisation et la modernisation de l’agriculture. » Le projet est également aligné sur le Programme d’atténuation du coronavirus et de revitalisation des entreprises (CARES) du Ghana qui identifie l’amélioration de l’accès au financement pour les entreprises ghanéennes comme l’une des mesures clés pour la revitalisation et la transformation économiques. Il s’agit d’un don du Fonds africain de développement (FAD) d’un montant de 28,39 millions d’UC à la République du Ghana en vue d’augmenter le capital de la « Development Bank Ghana » (DBG), une institution de financement du développement (IFD) nouvellement créée.

Amen Bank is a Tunisian commercial bank listed on the Tunis stock exchange with total assets of TND 8.813 billion and shareholders’ equity of TND 905.28 million at the end of 2018. The proposed funding, composed of a long-term line of credit and a trade finance facility, will enable Amen Bank to gain access to much-needed financial resources to grow its loan and trade finance portfolios thereby contributing to Tunisia’s development. The long-term LOC will enable Amen Bank to provide long-term investment funding to its clients with projects and investment opportunities in the agriculture/agribusiness, industry and health sectors. Consequently, with the Bank’s TFLOC, Amen Bank will have a facility that is more suitable for funding trade operations and with which it can meet some of its clients’ growing demand for trade finance. The TFLOC, on the other hand, will allow Amen Bank to develop its trade finance business with its resources to be used by its clients operating in the already mentioned sectors to finance imports and exports accordance with the Bank’s guidelines. It will boost productive capacity and, consequently, Tunisia’s export potential.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet concerne un financement de 50 millions d’euros adossé au bilan de la Banque, comprenant deux lignes de crédit accordées à Amen Bank de Tunisie aux fins de rétrocession aux petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) et aux autres sociétés dans les principaux secteurs de l’économie nationale. Amen Bank est une banque commerciale tunisienne cotée à la Bourse de Tunis, dont l’actif total s’élevait à 8,813 milliards de DT et les fonds propres des actionnaires à 905,28 millions de DT à fin 2018. Le financement proposé, qui comprend une ligne de crédit à long terme et une facilité de financement du commerce, permettra à Amen Bank d’avoir accès aux ressources financières tant nécessaires pour développer ses portefeuilles de prêt et de financement du commerce, contribuant ainsi au développement de la Tunisie. La LC à long terme permettra à Amen Bank d’accorder un financement à long terme à ses clients qui disposent de projets et souhaitent mettre à profit des opportunités d’investissement dans les secteurs de l’agriculture/agro-industrie, de l’industrie et de la santé. Ainsi, grâce à la LdC-FC de la Banque, Amen Bank disposera d’une facilité davantage adaptée au financement des opérations commerciales et qui lui permettra de satisfaire la demande croissante de financement du commerce de certains de ses clients. Par ailleurs, la LdC-FC permettra à la banque de développer ses activités de financement du commerce à l’aide de ses ressources qui seront mises à la disposition de ses clients qui interviennent dans les secteurs susmentionnés afin de financer les importations et les exportations, conformément aux lignes directrices de la Banque. Elle contribuera à accroître la capacité de production et, partant, le potentiel d’exportation de la Tunisie.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will provide Amen Bank with access to the stable resources it needs to meet the medium and long-term financing demands of its clients.

Amen Bank is a Tunisian commercial bank listed on the Tunis stock exchange with total assets of TND 8.813 billion and shareholders’ equity of TND 905.28 million at the end of 2018. The proposed funding, composed of a long-term line of credit and a trade finance facility, will enable Amen Bank to gain access to much-needed financial resources to grow its loan and trade finance portfolios thereby contributing to Tunisia’s development. The long-term LOC will enable Amen Bank to provide long-term investment funding to its clients with projects and investment opportunities in the agriculture/agribusiness, industry and health sectors. Consequently, with the Bank’s TFLOC, Amen Bank will have a facility that is more suitable for funding trade operations and with which it can meet some of its clients’ growing demand for trade finance. The TFLOC, on the other hand, will allow Amen Bank to develop its trade finance business with its resources to be used by its clients operating in the already mentioned sectors to finance imports and exports accordance with the Bank’s guidelines. It will boost productive capacity and, consequently, Tunisia’s export potential.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet concerne un financement de 50 millions d’euros adossé au bilan de la Banque, comprenant deux lignes de crédit accordées à Amen Bank de Tunisie aux fins de rétrocession aux petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) et aux autres sociétés dans les principaux secteurs de l’économie nationale. Amen Bank est une banque commerciale tunisienne cotée à la Bourse de Tunis, dont l’actif total s’élevait à 8,813 milliards de DT et les fonds propres des actionnaires à 905,28 millions de DT à fin 2018. Le financement proposé, qui comprend une ligne de crédit à long terme et une facilité de financement du commerce, permettra à Amen Bank d’avoir accès aux ressources financières tant nécessaires pour développer ses portefeuilles de prêt et de financement du commerce, contribuant ainsi au développement de la Tunisie. La LC à long terme permettra à Amen Bank d’accorder un financement à long terme à ses clients qui disposent de projets et souhaitent mettre à profit des opportunités d’investissement dans les secteurs de l’agriculture/agro-industrie, de l’industrie et de la santé. Ainsi, grâce à la LdC-FC de la Banque, Amen Bank disposera d’une facilité davantage adaptée au financement des opérations commerciales et qui lui permettra de satisfaire la demande croissante de financement du commerce de certains de ses clients. Par ailleurs, la LdC-FC permettra à la banque de développer ses activités de financement du commerce à l’aide de ses ressources qui seront mises à la disposition de ses clients qui interviennent dans les secteurs susmentionnés afin de financer les importations et les exportations, conformément aux lignes directrices de la Banque.

This is a technical assistance operation that is closely linked to the Project to Support Skills Development and Youth Entrepreneurship in Promising Sectors (PDCEJ). It aims to strengthen the position of SMEs and SMIs in the oil and gas value chains so that they can provide quality goods and services. Local content requirements are specifically provided for in Senegal's Petroleum Code (February 2019), which gives preference to local SMEs for construction, equipment supply and service contracts, provided they offer enough conditions in terms of quality, price, quantity and deadlines. To date, Senegalese SMEs and young entrepreneurs who could serve large companies currently lack technical and managerial skills, adequate infrastructure, financing and innovative technologies and techniques, particularly for the oil and gas industry. This technical assistance project will not only target SMEs specialized in the oil and gas sector. Rather, the objective is to build a strong network of companies capable of providing quality goods and services to the major oil companies, a niche market that is currently promising, but also to other potential buyers following a multi-sectoral approach. The program has three main components: (i) Identification of SMEs and enterprise diagnostics; (ii) Development of management skills and production capabilities of SMEs; (iii) Development of Business Linkages and Project management.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente opération est une subvention du Fonds d'aide au secteur privé africain (FAPA) de 1 000 000 USD pour investir dans le Programme de mise en relation des PME du Sénégal (SME BLP). Il s'agit d'une opération d'assistance technique étroitement liée au Projet d'appui au développement des compétences et à l'entrepreneuriat des jeunes dans les secteurs prometteurs (PDCEJ). Elle vise à renforcer la position des PME et PMI dans les chaînes de valeur du pétrole et du gaz afin qu'elles puissent fournir des biens et services de qualité. Les exigences en matière de contenu local sont spécifiquement prévues dans le Code pétrolier du Sénégal (février 2019), qui privilégie les PME locales pour les contrats de construction, de fourniture d'équipements et de services, à condition qu'elles offrent des conditions suffisantes en termes de qualité, de prix, de quantité et de délais. À ce jour, les PME et les jeunes entrepreneurs sénégalais qui pourraient servir les grandes entreprises manquent de compétences techniques et managériales, d'infrastructures adéquates, de financements et de technologies et techniques innovantes, notamment pour l'industrie pétrolière et gazière. Ce projet d'assistance technique ne ciblera pas uniquement les PME spécialisées dans le secteur du pétrole et du gaz. L'objectif est plutôt de construire un réseau solide d'entreprises capables de fournir des biens et des services de qualité aux grandes compagnies pétrolières, un marché de niche actuellement prometteur, mais aussi à d'autres acheteurs potentiels suivant une approche multisectorielle. Le programme comporte trois composantes principales : (i) Identification des PME et diagnostic des entreprises ; (ii) Développement des compétences de gestion et des capacités de production des PME ; (iii) Développement des liens commerciaux et gestion de projet.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The overall goal of this project is to strengthen economic and social development through increased access for SMEs to skills, financing, and new markets through partnerships with large companies.

This equity investment will allow the AfDB to own 1% of BOAD's capital, the new threshold below which a shareholder may not sit on the Board of Directors (the current level of equity ownership is 0.55%). This investment is crucial to the AfDB as the similarities and complementarities between their strategic priorities make BOAD a perfect partner for leveraging and optimizing the outcomes of the Bank’s actions in West Africa. The LOC resources will be on-lent particularly to the enterprises involved in agricultural value chain development and job creating service sectors. In addition, the AfDB will assist BOAD in setting up a technical assistance mechanism for mainstreaming gender issues in its project review process and promoting women’s entrepreneurship.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet comporte 2 volets : i) la mise à disposition d’une ligne de crédit de 70 Millions d’Euros destinés à appuyer les entreprises du Secteur Privé des pays de l’Union Economique et Monétaire Ouest Africaine (UEMOA) et ii) la participation à hauteur de 24 Millions de Dollars Américains à l’opération d’Augmentation Générale de Capital de la Banque Ouest Africaine de Développement (BOAD). Cette prise de participation permettra à la BAD de détenir 1% du capital de la BOAD, le nouveau seuil en deçà duquel, un actionnaire ne peut prétendre siéger au Conseil d’Administration (le niveau actuel de participation est de 0,54%). Cet investissement est d’autant plus crucial pour la BAD que, du fait des similarités et complémentarités existant entre leurs priorités stratégiques, la BOAD constitue un partenaire parfait pour amplifier et optimiser les résultats des actions menées par la Banque en Afrique de l’Ouest. Les ressources de la LDC iront notamment aux entreprises agissant dans le cadre du renforcement des chaînes de valeur agricoles et dans le secteur de services pourvoyeurs d’emplois. En outre, la BAD aidera la BOAD à mettre en place un dispositif d’assistance technique devant conduire à la généralisation de la prise compte de l’aspect Genre dans son processus de revue des projets et la promotion de l’entrepreneuriat féminin. Par ailleurs, 15 Millions d’Euros seront réservés aux femmes entrepreneurs dans le cadre du présent projet.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will (i) strengthen BOAD in its role as the Bank's strategic partner in private sector financing in West Africa with an increased level of capitalization allowing it to present better capital adequacy ratios, to hope for a better risk rating and greater credibility on the international financial markets; (ii) access to medium and long-term resources, identified by BOAD in its strategic plan as a constraint to the achievement of its development mission, (iii) a better match between its resources and its uses.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet permettra (i) de renforcer la BOAD dans son rôle de partenaire stratégique de la Banque dans le financement du secteur privé en Afrique de l’Ouest avec un niveau de capitalisation accru lui permettant de présenter de meilleurs ratios d’adéquation du capital, d’espérer une meilleure notation de risque et une plus grande crédibilité sur les marchés financiers internationaux ; (ii) l’accès à des ressources à moyen et long terme, identifié par la BOAD dans son plan stratégique comme une contrainte à la réalisation de sa mission de développement, (iii) une meilleure adéquation entre ses ressources et ses emplois.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will mainly benefit the West African Development Bank (BOAD), the member states of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) as well as companies acting within the framework of the reinforcement of agricultural value chains and in the employment-generating services sector of the zone.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet bénéficiera essentiellement à la Banque Ouest Africaine de Développement (BOAD), aux Etats membres de l’Union Economique et Monétaire Ouest Africaine (UEMOA) ainsi qu’aux entreprises agissant dans le cadre du renforcement des chaînes de valeur agricoles et dans le secteur de services pourvoyeurs d’emplois de la zone.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="XM-DAC-46021" type="10"><narrative>Banque ouest-africaine de développement -BOAD</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2021-12-13" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2023-12-08" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COGH</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Willy Budibunene NGANDU</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Fin.

The proposed Bank support will assist in improving access to much needed long-term financing for mid-sized enterprises and SMEs in the SADC region, during a period when extension of credit to the segment is severely constrained as a result of the adverse economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. In an effort to improve access to finance for Women SMEs through Norsad, the Bank through the AFAWA program will provide Technical Assistance (TA) to Norsad and its non-bank financial institution (NBFI) clients.

L’appui proposé de la Banque contribuera à améliorer l’accès au crédit à long terme dont les entreprises moyennes et les PME dans cette région ont tant besoin, à une période où l’octroi de concours aux entreprises de ce compartiment est gravement entravé par les effets économiques défavorables découlant de la pandémie du COVID-19. Pour améliorer l’accès des PME dirigées ou détenues par des femmes au crédit à travers Norsad, la Banque, par le biais de l’AFAWA, fournira une assistance technique à  à Norsad et aux institutions financières non bancaires figurant parmi ses clients. Le projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d’adaptation au climat.

Energy access (EA) companies are critical to achieving universal access to energy and green growth in Africa but are currently facing severe business uncertainty due to financial, economic, and operational challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 Off-Grid Recovery Platform (CRP) is a 5-year, USD 50 million blended finance platform designed to unlock private capital for EA companies to mitigate the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic while advancing access to clean electricity and ensuring a green economic recovery. CRP will avail concessional capital from the Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa (SEFA) to specialized energy access funds to blend with their own commercial capital, to enable the provision of liquidity and working capital to EA companies on below market terms. CRP will support ca 25-30 transactions and leverage ca USD 130 million in additional co-financing at project level. It will enable the provision of new off-grid connections to at least 200,000 households, equivalent to 1,000,000 beneficiaries over the period 2020-2024. Over 1,700 full-time and 8,000 rural agent positions will be protected and over 1,600 new fulltime jobs will be created, of which 30% is estimated to be filled by women.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Cette intervention concerne la plateforme de relance hors réseau COVID-19 (CRP). Les entreprises d'accès à l'énergie (AE) sont essentielles à la réalisation de l'accès universel à l'énergie et à la croissance verte en Afrique, mais sont actuellement confrontées à une grave incertitude commerciale en raison des défis financiers, économiques et opérationnels causés par la pandémie de COVID-19. La plateforme de relance hors réseau COVID-19 (CRP) est une plateforme de financement mixte de 50 millions de dollars sur 5 ans, conçue pour débloquer des capitaux privés pour les entreprises de l'Afrique de l'Est afin d'atténuer les impacts négatifs de la pandémie de COVID-19 tout en favorisant l'accès à l'électricité propre et en assurant une relance économique verte. Le CRP fournira des capitaux concessionnels du Fonds pour l'énergie durable en Afrique (SEFA) à des fonds spécialisés dans l'accès à l'énergie pour les mélanger à leurs propres capitaux commerciaux, afin de permettre la fourniture de liquidités et de fonds de roulement aux entreprises de l'EA à des conditions inférieures à celles du marché. Le CRP soutiendra environ 25 à 30 transactions et mobilisera environ 130 millions d'USD de cofinancement supplémentaire au niveau des projets. Il permettra de fournir de nouvelles connexions hors réseau à au moins 200 000 ménages, soit 1 000 000 de bénéficiaires sur la période 2020-2024. Plus de 1 700 postes à temps plein et 8 000 postes d'agents ruraux seront protégés et plus de 1 600 nouveaux emplois à temps plein seront créés, dont 30 % devraient être occupés par des femmes.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project goal is unlocking commercial capital to finance Energy access (EA) companies enabling them to mitigate the negative impact of the pandemic.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'objectif du projet est de débloquer des capitaux commerciaux pour financer des entreprises d'accès à l'énergie (AE) afin de leur permettre d'atténuer l'impact négatif de la pandémie.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will benefit at least 200,000 households equivalent to 1,000,000 beneficiaries over the period 2020-2024 through Africa.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet bénéficiera à au moins 200 000 ménages, soit 1 000 000 de bénéficiaires, sur la période 2020-2024 à travers l'Afrique.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-SEFA" type="40"><narrative>Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Energy Entrepreneurs Growth Fund</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2020-12-01" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2021-11-25" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2026-11-25" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2026-11-25" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>RDCN</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Fatma BEN ABDA</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Co-Financing Officer, FIST1</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>f.benabda@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="184742"/><name><narrative>Nairobi</narrative></name><administrative code="51328" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="51360" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-1.28333 36.83333</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23230"><narrative>Solar energy</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.6" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

The COVID-19 Off-Grid Recovery Platform (CRP) is a 5-year, USD 50 million blended finance platform designed to unlock private capital for EA companies to mitigate the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic while advancing access to clean electricity and ensuring a green economic recovery. CRP will avail concessional capital from the Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa (SEFA) to specialized energy access funds to blend with their own commercial capital, to enable the provision of liquidity and working capital to EA companies on below market terms. CRP will support ca 25-30 transactions and leverage ca USD 130 million in additional co-financing at project level. It will enable the provision of new off-grid connections to at least 200,000 households, equivalent to 1,000,000 beneficiaries over the period 2020-2024.

La plateforme de relance hors réseau COVID-19 (CRP) est une plateforme de financement mixte de 50 millions de dollars sur 5 ans, conçue pour débloquer des capitaux privés pour les entreprises de l'Afrique de l'Est afin d'atténuer les impacts négatifs de la pandémie de COVID-19 tout en favorisant l'accès à l'électricité propre et en assurant une relance économique verte. Le CRP fournira des capitaux concessionnels du Fonds pour l'énergie durable en Afrique (SEFA) à des fonds spécialisés dans l'accès à l'énergie pour les mélanger à leurs propres capitaux commerciaux, afin de permettre la fourniture de liquidités et de fonds de roulement aux entreprises de l'EA à des conditions inférieures à celles du marché. Le CRP soutiendra environ 25 à 30 transactions et mobilisera environ 130 millions d'USD de cofinancement supplémentaire au niveau des projets.

Energy access (EA) companies are critical to achieving universal access to energy and green growth in Africa but are currently facing severe business uncertainty due to financial, economic, and operational challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 Off-Grid Recovery Platform (CRP) is a 5-year, USD 50 million blended finance platform designed to unlock private capital for EA companies to mitigate the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic while advancing access to clean electricity and ensuring a green economic recovery. CRP will avail concessional capital from the Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa (SEFA) to specialized energy access funds to blend with their own commercial capital, to enable the provision of liquidity and working capital to EA companies on below market terms. CRP will support ca 25-30 transactions and leverage ca USD 130 million in additional co-financing at project level. It will enable the provision of new off-grid connections to at least 200,000 households, equivalent to 1,000,000 beneficiaries over the period 2020-2024. Over 1,700 full-time and 8,000 rural agent positions will be protected and over 1,600 new fulltime jobs will be created, of which 30% is estimated to be filled by women.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Cette intervention concerne la plateforme de relance hors réseau COVID-19 (CRP). Les entreprises d'accès à l'énergie (AE) sont essentielles à la réalisation de l'accès universel à l'énergie et à la croissance verte en Afrique, mais sont actuellement confrontées à une grave incertitude commerciale en raison des défis financiers, économiques et opérationnels causés par la pandémie de COVID-19. La plateforme de relance hors réseau COVID-19 (CRP) est une plateforme de financement mixte de 50 millions de dollars sur 5 ans, conçue pour débloquer des capitaux privés pour les entreprises de l'Afrique de l'Est afin d'atténuer les impacts négatifs de la pandémie de COVID-19 tout en favorisant l'accès à l'électricité propre et en assurant une relance économique verte. Le CRP fournira des capitaux concessionnels du Fonds pour l'énergie durable en Afrique (SEFA) à des fonds spécialisés dans l'accès à l'énergie pour les mélanger à leurs propres capitaux commerciaux, afin de permettre la fourniture de liquidités et de fonds de roulement aux entreprises de l'EA à des conditions inférieures à celles du marché. Le CRP soutiendra environ 25 à 30 transactions et mobilisera environ 130 millions d'USD de cofinancement supplémentaire au niveau des projets. Il permettra de fournir de nouvelles connexions hors réseau à au moins 200 000 ménages, soit 1 000 000 de bénéficiaires sur la période 2020-2024.

CRP was initially established as a US$50  million blended  finance platform  anchored  in  a  US$20  million  SEFA  concessional  loan  to be  blended  and  co-invested with  US$30  million  in  commercial  funding  from  three  specialized  energy  access  lenders  (CRP  Partners)  selected  through  a competitive process: Triple Jump (managing the Energy Entrepreneurs Growth Fund), Lion’s Head Global Partners (managing the Facility for Energy Inclusion Off-Grid Energy Fund)and Social Investment Managers and Advisors (managing SIMA Fund IandSIMA  Angaza  Distributor  Finance  Fund).  Despite  resilience  of  the  sector,  energy  access  companies  continue  to face operational  disruptions,  business  uncertainty  and  liquidity  constrains  as  a  result  of  the  extended  impacts  of  the  COVID-19 pandemic and war in Ukraine. In this context, AfDB approved a US$20 million top-up of the platform -CRP phase II –to continue the original programme and facilitate the provision of affordable debt products to EA companies. This project primarily contributes to climate mitigation results. As such, 100% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La plateforme de redressement hors réseau COVID-19 (CRP) est une initiative historique de la Banque approuvée en décembre 2020 pour fournir un capital de secours et de redressement aux entreprises d'accès à l'énergie (AE), afin d'atténuer les impacts négatifs de la pandémie COVID-19 tout en faisant progresser l'accès à l'électricité propre et en favorisant un secteur plus viable et plus robuste après la crise. Le CRP a été initialement établi comme une plateforme de financement mixte de 50 millions de dollars US, ancrée dans un prêt concessionnel SEFA de 20 millions de dollars US qui sera mélangé et co-investi avec 30 millions de dollars US de financement commercial provenant de trois prêteurs spécialisés dans l'accès à l'énergie (partenaires du CRP) sélectionnés par un processus compétitif : Triple Jump (qui gère l'Energy Entrepreneurs Growth Fund), Lion's Head Global Partners (qui gère le Facility for Energy Inclusion Off-Grid Energy Fund) et Social Investment Managers and Advisors (qui gère SIMA Fund IetSIMA Angaza Distributor Finance Fund).  Malgré la résilience du secteur, les entreprises d'accès à l'énergie continuent de faire face à des perturbations opérationnelles, à des incertitudes commerciales et à des contraintes de liquidité en raison des impacts prolongés de la pandémie COVID-19 et de la guerre en Ukraine. Dans ce contexte, la BAD a approuvé un complément de 20 millions de dollars US de la plateforme -CRP phase II- pour poursuivre le programme original et faciliter la fourniture de produits de dette abordables aux entreprises d'EA. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation au climat. Ainsi, 100 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 100 % dédiés à l'atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">CRP phase II will support ca 20 additional transactions and leverage ca US$ 30 million from Partner Funds as well as US$110 million in additional co-financing expected during the 6-year implementation period.

Indeed, most African banks are small and therefore find it difficult to obtain adequate trade finance facilities from international confirming banks to support African importers and exporters. SMBCE is a commercial bank wholly owned by Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Group (SMBC) of Japan and was established in March 2003. Its operations concentrate on Middle East, Africa, and Europe with proven specialty in Trade Finance, Project Finance, and Cash Management. SMBCE is consider to be a natural strategic partner for supporting the AfDB’s development mandate, initially starting with this intervention within the trade finance space. The RPA facility is expected to run over three years, as a 50/50 risk sharing arrangement where SMBCE will match AfDB’s undertaking in each transaction, and will create a maximum trade finance portfolio of up to US $200 million at any one time. Counting rollovers, it is expected that the facility will support more than US $1.2 billion of trade in Africa over the 3-year tenor. It aligns with the acute market demand for trade finance in Africa in agriculture, transport, construction, health, energy and manufacturing sectors. AfDB’s additionality lies in the use of its “AAA” credit rating to give greater comfort to SMBCE to take more risk on local banks in Africa and provide them increased trade finance facilities.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet est un accord de participation au risque (APR) non financé de 100 millions de dollars américains pour Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited (SMBCE) afin d'aider les banques émettrices en Afrique à développer leurs opérations de financement du commerce. En effet, la plupart des banques africaines sont de petite taille et ont donc du mal à obtenir des facilités de financement du commerce adéquates de la part des banques internationales de confirmation pour soutenir les importateurs et les exportateurs africains. SMBCE est une banque commerciale détenue à 100 % par le groupe japonais Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC) et a été créée en mars 2003. Ses activités se concentrent sur le Moyen-Orient, l'Afrique et l'Europe, avec une spécialisation reconnue dans le financement du commerce, le financement de projets et la gestion de trésorerie. Le SMBCE est considéré comme un partenaire stratégique naturel pour soutenir le mandat de développement de la BAD, en commençant par cette intervention dans le domaine du financement du commerce. La facilité RPA devrait s'étaler sur trois ans, sous la forme d'un accord de partage des risques à 50/50 où la SMBCE s'alignera sur l'engagement de la BAD dans chaque transaction, et créera un portefeuille de financement du commerce d'un montant maximum de 200 millions de dollars US à tout moment. Si l'on tient compte des renouvellements, la facilité devrait soutenir plus de 1,2 milliard de dollars américains de commerce en Afrique sur une période de trois ans. Elle s'aligne sur la forte demande du marché pour le financement du commerce en Afrique dans les secteurs de l'agriculture, des transports, de la construction, de la santé, de l'énergie et de l'industrie manufacturière. L'additionnalité de la BAD réside dans l'utilisation de sa notation de crédit "AAA" pour donner plus de confort à la SMBCE afin de prendre plus de risques sur les banques locales en Afrique et leur fournir des facilités de financement du commerce accrues.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The facility will help address critical market demand for trade finance on the continent by providing support for trade in vital economic sectors such as agriculture and manufacturing. It will also foster financial sector development and regional integration, and contribute to government revenue generation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Cette facilité aidera à répondre à la demande critique du marché pour le financement du commerce sur le continent en soutenant le commerce dans des secteurs économiques vitaux tels que l'agriculture et l'industrie manufacturière. Elle favorisera également le développement du secteur financier et l'intégration régionale, et contribuera à la génération de recettes publiques.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The implementation of this partnership will support vital sectors such as agriculture, mining, construction and light manufacturing and thus SMBCE’s interventions are multi-sectorial in nature. The proposed facility will therefore enhance SMBCE’s capacity to provide trade  confirmation services and liquidity provision to Issuing Banks. It aims also to foster financial sector development, promote south-south trade (spurred by the SMBCE/SMBC Group’s extensive global presence) and engineer inclusive growth by supporting African FIs and SMEs. This will in turn promote intra-Africa trade as well as industrialization and export development.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La mise en œuvre de ce partenariat soutiendra des secteurs vitaux tels que l'agriculture, l'exploitation minière, la construction et l'industrie légère. Les interventions du SMBCE sont donc de nature multisectorielle. Le mécanisme proposé renforcera donc la capacité du SMBCE à fournir des services de confirmation des transactions et de fourniture de liquidités aux banques émettrices. Elle vise également à favoriser le développement du secteur financier, à promouvoir le commerce sud-sud (stimulé par la présence mondiale étendue du groupe SMBCE/SMBC) et à favoriser une croissance inclusive en soutenant les institutions financières et les PME africaines. Cela permettra à son tour de promouvoir le commerce intra-africain ainsi que l'industrialisation et le développement des exportations.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Euro</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2020-03-18" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2022-08-28" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PIFD3</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Zoumana KONE</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Trade Finance Operations Officer, PIFD3</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>z.kone@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><sector vocabulary="1" code="24030"><narrative>Formal sector financial intermediaries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.12.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Microfinance and financial services - Microfinance and financial services</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2022-08-28"/><period-end iso-date="2022-11-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2022-08-28">19013720.300000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2022-11-28"/><period-end iso-date="2023-02-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2022-11-28">19013720.300000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2023-02-28"/><period-end iso-date="2023-05-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2023-02-28">19013720.300000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2023-05-28"/><period-end iso-date="2023-08-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2023-05-28">19013720.300000</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000130021880"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2022-08-28"/><value value-date="2022-08-28">76054881.20</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Euro</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="421"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-Z1-HAB-081" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/en/projects-and-operations/P-Z1-HAB-081" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/all/libraries/pdf.js/web/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.afdb.org%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments%2Fprojects-and-operations%2Fregional_-_sumitomo_mitsui_banking_corporation_europe_limited_smbce_-_project_summary_note_compressed.pdf#page=1&amp;zoom=auto,-15,842" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/all/libraries/pdf.js/web/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.afdb.org%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments%2Fenvironmental-and-social-assessments%2Fsmbce_es_management_overview_publication.pdf#page=1&amp;zoom=auto,-15,792" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Environmental Study</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

It  provides  an  opportunity  for  the  Bank  to  partner  with  an  experienced private sector  actor to  go  in to  challenging markets  that  would  otherwise  be  difficult  to  serve.  It  will contribute  to  (a)  boost  private  sector  development  in these  countries,  (b)  promote  regional trade and integration across challenging regional markets, and (c) enhance resilience against key drivers of fragility at national and regional level. The  project  is  therefore  consistent  with  the  Bank’s  strategic  priorities  (High-5s),  the  TYS (2013-2022) as well as the regional development objectives and key cross cutting themes of the RISPs for Eastern and Central Africa.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le  projet  met  fortement  l'accent  sur  les  pays  à  faible  revenu,  les  États  en  transition  et  les marchés  régionaux  difficiles  et  contribuera  à  renforcer  la  résilience  grâce  au  commerce régional, aux infrastructures transfrontalières, à la création d'emplois, à l'industrialisation, à la transformation  agricole  et  à  l'amélioration  des  moyens  de  subsistance  locaux.  Il  offre  à  la Banque l'occasion de s'associer à un acteur expérimenté du secteur privé pour pénétrer des marchés difficiles qui seraient autrement difficiles à desservir. Il contribuera à (a) stimuler le développement du secteur privé dans ces pays, (b) promouvoir le commerce et l'intégration régionaux sur  des  marchés  régionaux  difficiles,  et  (c)  renforcer  la  résilience  face  aux principaux facteurs de fragilité aux niveaux national et régional. Le projet est donc cohérent avec les priorités stratégiques de la Banque (High-5), la Stratégie décennale  (2013-2022)  ainsi  que  les  objectifs  de  développement  régional  et  les  principaux thèmes transversaux des DSIR pour l'Afrique orientale et centrale.&#13;

The investments in value chain transformation will provide a more direct route to market for small farmers and increasing the incomes to local producers.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'additionnalité  est  motivée par (i)  la  facilitation de  la  mobilisation d'autres  financiers  par le biais de la syndication ; (ii) la couverture des risques politiques potentiels pour le sponsor et les autres investisseurs privés et commerciaux; (iii) un soutien continu à l'amélioration de la gouvernance,   à   l'adoption   de   normes   et   de   meilleures   pratiques   internationales,   de sauvegardes et d'autres valeurs ajoutées non financières, (iv) à un impact supplémentaire sur le développement dans les activités du projet, (v) à stimuler le flux d'IDE rares et à contribuer au  développement  du  secteur  privé  dans  les  pays  en  transition  (vi)  fournir  des  capitaux d'emprunt  en  devises  fortes  à  long  terme  pour  la  croissance  des  entreprises,  et  (vii) promouvoir le commerce régional et l'intégration régionale.

The project will be the first large-scale private sector-driven geothermal development in Africa and the first privately financed IPP in Ethiopia (“Tulu Moye”). The project involves geothermal resource development, construction,  commissioning, and operation of a 50 MW power plant in Ethiopia under a build own operate transfer (“BOOT”) structure, to be developed for a further 100MW as the second phase. The first phase of the project is intended to be implemented in two sub-sets of 25MW each for geothermal resource development purposes only. The sub-sets arrangement is due to the capital intensity of the drilling phase, which is a huge burden for the equity investors and a lack of risk appetite from debt financiers to support the exploration drilling activities. This project primarily contributes to climate mitigation results. As such, 100% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet s’inscrit dans le domaine d'intervention de « Charge de base verte » du Fonds des énergies durables pour l’Afrique (SEFA), dans la mesure où la géothermie est l'une des sources d'énergie renouvelable les plus fiables (facteur de charge élevé) en Afrique de l'Est, avec un potentiel de production de plus de 15 000 MW. L’intervention sera le premier projet de développement de ressources géothermiques à grande échelle mené par le secteur privé en Afrique et le premier producteur indépendant d’électricité (PIE) financé par le secteur privé en Éthiopie (« Tulu Moye »). Le projet comprend la mise en valeur des ressources géothermiques, la construction, la mise en service et l'exploitation d'une centrale électrique de 50 MW en Éthiopie selon une formule de contrat CPET (Construire-posséder-exploiter et transférer), dont la puissance sera portée à 100 MW lors de la deuxième phase. La première phase du projet est censée être réalisée en deux sous-ensembles de 25 MW chacun s’agissant du développement des ressources géothermiques uniquement. La structuration en sous-ensembles est due à l'intensité du capital de la phase de forage, qui représente une charge énorme pour les investisseurs en capital, et à un manque d'appétence pour le risque de la part des financiers de la dette pour soutenir les activités de forage d'exploration. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation au climat. Ainsi, 100 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 100 % dédiés à l'atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">Tulu Moye will add 50MW of baseload renewable energy capacity to the national system (with an additional 100 MW in Phase II).

The effect of CO2 reduction is assessed at 826,570 tons of CO2 equivalent per year. Private sector capital of around USD 297M (equity and debt) will be mobilized for the phase I only.

Des capitaux du secteur privé d'environ 297 millions de dollars (fonds propres et emprunts) seront mobilisés pour la phase I uniquement. Le projet jettera les bases du développement futur des producteurs indépendants d’électricité (PIE) en Éthiopie et attirera les capitaux privés dont le pays a tant besoin pour le développement de l’énergie géothermique.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will benefit Ethiopia by providing clean energy and contributing to the diversification of the Country’s energy mix from highly relying on hydro generation (93% of total capacity).

SSIPSD activities propose measures to create an enabling business environment for both foreign and domestic firms, and to enhance the capacity of MSMEs to access markets. The project activities will contribute to two main outcomes: (i) Improved investment climate conducive to attracting private investment, increasing overall competitiveness and promoting employment to reduce poverty, which will be measured by an increase in domestic investment from USD 1.3 billion in 2020 to USD 1.5 billion in 2025; and (ii) Improved SME survival rate from 40% (2021) to 45% (2025). Key output expected by the project include at least 600 MSMEs and 565 BDAs trained and at least 500 jobs created in project assisted SMEs- the reporting on this targets will be gender disaggregated and will also measure the youth impact.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet de soutien au développement durable et inclusif du secteur privé (SSIPSD) correspond le mieux aux critères du fonds fiduciaire du FAPA, car il s'agit d'un projet de développement des connaissances et des compétences qui créera un environnement propice à la promotion des investissements et au développement du secteur privé, contribuant ainsi à la croissance des entreprises, à l'esprit d'entreprise et à la création d'emplois. Les activités du SSIPSD proposent des mesures visant à créer un environnement commercial favorable pour les entreprises étrangères et nationales, et à renforcer la capacité des MPME à accéder aux marchés. Les activités du projet contribueront à deux résultats principaux : (i) l'amélioration du climat d'investissement pour attirer l'investissement privé, augmenter la compétitivité globale et promouvoir l'emploi pour réduire la pauvreté, ce qui sera mesuré par une augmentation de l'investissement domestique de 1,3 milliard USD en 2020 à 1,5 milliard USD en 2025 ; et (ii) l'amélioration du taux de survie des PME de 40% (2021) à 45% (2025). Les principaux résultats attendus du projet sont la formation d'au moins 600 MPME et 565 BDA et la création d'au moins 500 emplois dans les PME bénéficiant de l'aide du projet - le rapport sur ces objectifs sera ventilé par sexe et mesurera également l'impact sur les jeunes.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The development goal of the SSIPSD project is to contribute to ongoing reforms aimed at improving the policy environment to enable private sector-led growth. To this end, the project development objective is to support reforms in the policy environment to enable private sector-led growth and strengthen the capacity of Rwanda’s private sector especially MSMEs to generate quality jobs and adopt responsible and green business practices. The project activities will also strengthen the capacities of staff of beneficiary government institutions to design, monitor and implement more effective and green private sector support programs and policies. SSIPSD will also support the strengthening of public-private dialogue and collaboration through a participatory process of the Investment Policy Review as well as targeted workshop sessions. The project specific objectives are to support: (i) an investment policy review to strengthen policy formulation and the regulatory environment for private sector development; and (ii) the expansion of Business Development Advisors (BDA) Scheme and the capacity of MSMEs to access both domestic and international markets.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'objectif de développement du projet SSIPSD est de contribuer aux réformes en cours visant à améliorer l'environnement politique pour permettre une croissance tirée par le secteur privé. À cette fin, l'objectif de développement du projet est de soutenir les réformes de l'environnement politique pour permettre une croissance tirée par le secteur privé et renforcer la capacité du secteur privé rwandais, en particulier les MPME, à créer des emplois de qualité et à adopter des pratiques commerciales responsables et écologiques. Les activités du projet renforceront également les capacités du personnel des institutions gouvernementales bénéficiaires à concevoir, contrôler et mettre en œuvre des programmes et des politiques de soutien au secteur privé plus efficaces et plus écologiques. Le SSIPSD soutiendra également le renforcement du dialogue et de la collaboration entre les secteurs public et privé par le biais d'un processus participatif d'examen de la politique d'investissement et de sessions d'ateliers ciblés. Les objectifs spécifiques du projet sont de soutenir : (i) un examen de la politique d'investissement pour renforcer la formulation des politiques et l'environnement réglementaire pour le développement du secteur privé ; et (ii) l'expansion du système de conseillers en développement des entreprises (BDA) et la capacité des MPME à accéder aux marchés nationaux et internationaux.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The grant recipient will be the Republic of Rwanda and the project will be implemented nationwide.

The group is pursuing a dynamic of transformation by adopting a strategy of sustainable growth, driven by values of innovation, responsibility and commitment. Under this partnership, the Bank and SG will share the risk of default on a portfolio of eligible trade finance instruments issued by African issuing banks and confirmed by SG. The proposed RPA will enable SG to provide risk coverage to support nearly 40 local and regional African issuing banks covering nearly 16 RMCs, including 5 transition states, thereby promoting trade and economic activity in Africa.

MCB proposes to deploy the bulk of the financing towards growing its Pan-African and regional banking activities, specifically trade financing activities in up to 24 African countries. The proposed support to MCB is expected to enable it to grow its loan and trade financing support activities by more than MUR 4.5 billion over the period 2023 to 2025, enabling it to support the creation of more than 120,000 direct jobs from both the portfolio growth and at sub-project level.

La MCB propose de déployer l'essentiel du financement pour développer ses activités bancaires panafricaines et régionales, en particulier les activités de financement du commerce dans un maximum de 24 pays africains. L’appui envisagé en faveur de la MCB devrait lui permettre d’accroître le volume de ses activités de prêt et de soutien au financement du commerce de plus de 4,5 milliards roupies sur la période de 2023 à 2025, ce qui lui permettra de contribuer à la création de plus de 120 000 emplois directs au niveau des sous-projets.

This institutional support project is intended to help limit the sectoral issues linked with information management and capacity-building for the regulator that will impact various stakeholder. The project will take a holistic review of the regulator’s institutional capacity in the area of information management with the objectives to establish the right enabling environment through a bespoke MIS tool that will attract stakeholder’s engagement including private sector participation into the sector through easy availability of key regulatory documents and information. The tool will support a unified approach to digitize regulatory functions of AREE, enable open access to regulatory information, improve the regulator’s decision-making process and increase private sector engagement and involvement in the regulatory process. The project has three mutually reinforcing components: i) Technology Gap Analysis to assess the impact of technology on AREE operations from both the water and the electricity sector, with the later prioritized and draw detailed IT business requirements of key functions selected to be digitized out of outcomes informed by the assessment; ii) Development and operationalization of the MIS tool following the defined implementation and technical specifications roadmap; iii) Sensitization workshops, Dissemination and Project Management to reinforce the regulator human capacity and to raise awareness of the project among stakeholders at the national and global stage. The timeframe for project implementation is 3 years, starting from signing of the grant agreement timeline expected in December 2022 and will end in June 2025.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet vise à améliorer les processus de régulation du secteur de l'électricité en Guinée en soutenant l'Autorité de Régulation des secteurs de l'Electricité et de l'Eau potable (AREE), à travers la fourniture d'une Assistance Technique (AT) pour mettre en place un outil centralisé de Système d'Information de Gestion (SIG). Ce projet d'appui institutionnel entend contribuer à limiter les problèmes sectoriels liés à la gestion de l'information et au renforcement des capacités de l'autorité de régulation qui auront un impact sur les différentes parties prenantes. Le projet procédera à un examen holistique de la capacité institutionnelle du régulateur dans le domaine de la gestion de l'information avec pour objectif de créer un environnement favorable grâce à un outil MIS sur mesure qui attirera l'engagement des parties prenantes, y compris la participation du secteur privé dans le secteur, grâce à la facilité d'accès aux documents et informations réglementaires clés. L'outil soutiendra une approche unifiée pour numériser les fonctions réglementaires de l'AREE, permettre un accès ouvert à l'information réglementaire, améliorer le processus de prise de décision du régulateur et accroître l'engagement et la participation du secteur privé dans le processus réglementaire. Le projet comporte trois composantes qui se renforcent mutuellement : i) Analyse des lacunes technologiques pour évaluer l'impact de la technologie sur les opérations de l'AREE dans les secteurs de l'eau et de l'électricité, avec la priorisation ultérieure et l'élaboration d'exigences commerciales informatiques détaillées des fonctions clés sélectionnées pour être numérisées à partir des résultats informés par l'évaluation ; ii) Développement et opérationnalisation de l'outil MIS en suivant la mise en œuvre définie et la feuille de route des spécifications techniques ; iii) Ateliers de sensibilisation, diffusion et gestion de projet pour renforcer les capacités humaines du régulateur et pour sensibiliser les parties prenantes au projet au niveau national et mondial. La durée de mise en œuvre du projet est de 3 ans, à compter de la signature de l'accord de subvention prévue en décembre 2022 et se terminera en juin 2025.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project’s main development objective is to strengthen the enabling environment for the power regulation sector in Guinea by developing state-of-the-art Management Information System (MIS) tool to the national regulator with a unified approach to digitize regulatory functions and increase private sector participation.

The TA will support AUDA-NEPAD's ongoing efforts to upscale African home-grown solutions aimed at improving healthcare capacity and reducing the reliance on external medical supplies. Further, the TA aligns well with the continental initiative of Boosting Intra Africa Trade (BIAT). AUDA-NEPAD programme is focused on three priority areas: Food Systems; Health Systems; and Economic Growth and Jobs. In alignment to AUDA-NEPAD Priority Areas the proposed Technical Assistance (TA) to AUDA - NEPAD is directly aligned to Health Systems. The project main components are: (1) strengthen the Institutional Capacity of AUDA NEPAD to develop a long-term strategy and sustainable programme, (2) engage TA services for the design and deployment of Post Acceleration support to AUDA NEPAD and to selected SMEs to address emerging challenges such as access to affordable finance while fostering private sector participation, and (3) project management including financial management, audit, monitoring and evaluation and reporting.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Cette proposition d'assistance technique (AT) à l'AUDA-NEPAD vise à renforcer les capacités dans les secteurs pharmaceutique et manufacturier et à améliorer l'accès aux services de santé essentiels. L'assistance technique soutiendra les efforts actuels de l'AUDA-NEPAD pour développer des solutions locales africaines visant à améliorer les capacités en matière de soins de santé et à réduire la dépendance à l'égard des fournitures médicales externes. En outre, l'assistance technique s'aligne bien sur l'initiative continentale de stimulation du commerce intra-africain (BIAT). Le programme AUDA-NEPAD se concentre sur trois domaines prioritaires : Systèmes alimentaires ; Systèmes de santé ; Croissance économique et emplois. Conformément aux domaines prioritaires de l'AUDA-NEPAD, l'assistance technique (AT) proposée à l'AUDA-NEPAD est directement alignée sur les systèmes de santé. Les principales composantes du projet sont les suivantes : (1) renforcer la capacité institutionnelle de l'AUDA - NEPAD à développer une stratégie à long terme et un programme durable, (2) engager des services d'assistance technique pour la conception et le déploiement d'un soutien post-accélération à l'AUDA - NEPAD et à des PME sélectionnées pour relever les défis émergents tels que l'accès à un financement abordable tout en encourageant la participation du secteur privé, et (3) la gestion du projet, y compris la gestion financière, l'audit, le suivi et l'évaluation et l'établissement de rapports.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The goal of the project is to strengthen the institutional capacity of AUDA-NEPAD to be a catalytic and innovative driver of economic growth and resilience to external shocks in health.

This innovative finance model aims to address key barriers to scaling mini-grid investments by aggregating diversified portfolios of mini-grid assets into a bankable project finance facility that can then attract long-term commercial capital at scale. CBEA Platform blends equity and concessional mezzanine debt at the platform level which is then invested as equity and shareholder loans into mini-grid projects (AssetCos). The mini-grids are constructed, operated, and maintained by partner mini-grid developers under long-term agreements. This project primarily contributes to climate mitigation results. As such, 100% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">CrossBoundary Energy Access Platform (CBEA Platform) est un mécanisme panafricain de financement de projets, spécifique aux mini-réseaux verts, d’une valeur de 150 millions d’USD, qui investit des fonds propres et des dettes dans des portefeuilles de mini-réseaux bancables. Ce modèle de financement innovant vise à surmonter les principaux obstacles à la mise à l'échelle des investissements dans les mini-réseaux, en regroupant des portefeuilles diversifiés d'actifs de mini-réseaux dans un mécanisme de financement de projet bancable, qui peut ensuite attirer des capitaux commerciaux à long terme et à grande échelle. CBEA Platform associe les fonds propres et la dette mezzanine concessionnelle au niveau de la plateforme, qui sont ensuite investis sous forme de fonds propres et de prêts d'actionnaires dans des projets de mini-réseaux (AssetCos). Les mini-réseaux sont construits, exploités et entretenus par des développeurs de mini-réseaux partenaires, dans le cadre d'accords à long terme. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation au climat. Ainsi, 100 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 100 % dédiés à l'atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The development objective of this project is to increase energy access in Africa.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'objectif de développement de ce projet est d'accroître l'accès à l'énergie en Afrique.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will benefit rural households and businesses.

Kairouan Solar PV Project</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Tunisie - Projet solaire photovoltaïque de Kairouan</narrative></title><description type="1"><narrative xml:lang="en">Kairouan Solar Project consists of design, construction and operation of a greenfield solar photovoltaic (PV) plant with a contractual capacity of 100 MWac to be implemented under a Build, Own and Operate scheme (BOO). The plant is located in El Metbassta, Kairouan North region, around 150 km South of Tunis, Tunisia. The Project scope includes an on-site substation and the construction of an 8-km 225kV interconnection to be built by the national utility - Société Tunisienne de l'Electricité et de Gaz (‘STEG’). The Kairouan Solar PV project, which is part of the 500 MW tender program launched by the State, carries the following rationale: i) reduce the dependance towards imported and expensive natural gas from Algeria; ii) diversify the current energy mix mainly composed of thermal generation (96% of the mix); iii) allow the country to meet future electricity demand expectations driven by industrialization, demographic growth and economic activities; iv) accompany transition to clean energy generation sources and enabling the country to lower the Green House Gas (GHG) emissions of its energy sector and decrease its carbon intensity by 41% in 2030, as stated in its Nationally Determined Contribution (‘NDC’) in line with the Paris Agreement; v) reduce the State subsidies in the energy sector to better support other sectors such as health and education (in 2020 State subsidies to the energy sector amounted to USD 285 million, the State has ambitions to reduce these to nil in 2026); vi) improve the financial situation of STEG thanks to a project tariff level at USD 3.5 cent / kWh vs. current generation cost at USD 9.6 c/kWh. This project primarily contributes to climate mitigation results. As such, 100% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet solaire de Kairouan consiste à la conception, construction et exploitation d’une nouvelle centrale solaire photovoltaïque (PV) d’une capacité contractuelle de 100 MWac, à mettre en œuvre dans le cadre d’un programme BOO (Build, Own and Operate). La centrale est située à El Metbassta, dans la région de Kairouan Nord, à 150 km environ au sud de Tunis, en Tunisie. Le Projet comprend une sous-station sur le site et la construction d’une interconnexion de 8 km de 225 kV qui sera construite par la Société tunisienne de l’électricité et du gaz (STEG). Le projet solaire photovoltaïque de Kairouan, qui fait partie du programme d’appel d’offres de 500 MW lancé par l’État, s’inscrit dans la logique suivante : i) réduire la dépendance à l’égard du gaz naturel importé d’Algérie à un coût élevé ; ii) diversifier le mix énergétique actuel composé principalement (à 96%) de production thermique ; iii) permettre au pays de répondre aux attentes futures d’électricité induites par l’industrialisation, la croissance démographique et les activités économiques ; iv) accompagner la transition vers des sources de production d’énergie propre et permettre au pays de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES) de son secteur énergétique et de diminuer son empreinte carbone de 41% en 2030, comme indiqué dans sa contribution déterminée au niveau national (CDN), conformément à l’Accord de Paris ; v) réduire les subventions de l’État dans le secteur de l’énergie pour mieux soutenir d’autres secteurs tels que la santé et l’éducation (en 2020, les subventions de l’État au secteur de l’énergie se sont élevées à 285 millions USD, mais l’État a pour ambition de les supprimer totalement d’ici à 2026) ; vi) améliorer la situation financière de la STEG grâce à un niveau de tarification du Projet à 3,5 cent/kWh contre un coût de production actuel de 9,6 c/kWh. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation au climat. Ainsi, 100 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 100 % dédiés à l'atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project

The project aims to help the Borrower significantly increase the level of healthcare services and reach a larger number of patients. In addition, the Bank's long-term financing is intended to strengthen the Company's balance sheet. Potential participation in the Project will increase the Bank's support to underserved health sectors in line with High 5 priorities. The proposed Project will have a significant impact on improving healthcare infrastructure through the promotion of new technologies, household benefits and job creation, budgetary implications, social and gender impacts, and private sector development. It will primarily serve the health and medical needs of the middle class and, once accredited by the General Authority for the Accreditation and Regulation of Health Care, it will cater for those eligible for cover under the Universal Health Insurance scheme, including the poor. In addition, high quality care will also be provided to the poor through the charitable trust and outreach services. The project contributes to climate finance, with 4 million USD of the total approved amount dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention porte sur l’octroi d’un prêt de premier rang à Andalusia Egypt Holding for Financial, une société par actions fermée enregistrée en Égypte, pour financer l’extension de sa capacité (de 229 lits à 445 lits et de 62 cliniques à 85 cliniques grâce à la construction d’un nouvel hôpital (6th October City Hospital) et à l’agrandissement de l’hôpital existant Al Maadi au Caire) en Égypte afin de fournir des services d’infrastructure de santé de qualité à un prix abordable à un plus grand nombre de patients au Caire. Le projet vise à aider l’Emprunteur à augmenter de manière significative le niveau des services de santé et à atteindre un plus grand nombre de patients. En outre, le financement à long terme de la Banque vise à renforcer le bilan de la Société. La participation potentielle au Projet permettra d’accroître le soutien de la Banque aux secteurs de la santé mal desservis, conformément aux priorités des High 5. Le Projet proposé aura un impact considérable sur l’amélioration de l’infrastructure des soins de santé grâce à la promotion des nouvelles technologies, aux avantages pour les ménages et à la création d’emplois, aux incidences budgétaires, aux effets sur le plan social et sur l’égalité des genres, ainsi qu’au développement du secteur privé. Il répondra principalement aux besoins sanitaires et médicaux de la classe moyenne et, une fois accrédité par l’Autorité générale pour l’accréditation et la réglementation des soins de santé, il s’adressera aux personnes éligibles à une couverture dans le cadre du programme d’assurance maladie universelle, y compris les pauvres. En outre, des soins de haute qualité seront également fournis aux pauvres par la fiducie caritative et des services de proximité.

It aims to strengthen food regulatory systems and promoting competitiveness of Agribusinesses especially the MSMEs will be crucial to tackling non-tariff barriers as relates to sanitary and phytosanitary measures, thus effectively facilitating the trade of safe and nutritious food. Moreover, reinforcement of food value chains will ensure non-disruption of food supply, which is critical to the sustenance of populations in the wake of the on-going COVID-19 pandemic and other stresses such as the ongoing desert locust outbreaks and droughts in some countries of the region. It also provides an important opportunity for the Bank and the FAPA Donor to follow-up and support the implementation of the food safety policy action plan through financing and investment. The project seeks to improve intra-regional and international trade in food by enhancing capacity of the Standards Committee food safety coordination mechanism, National Bureaux of Standards and National food safety laboratories to promote high quality and safe products starting with the EAC Partner States. The project comprises four main components, namely: (1) regional Harmonization Capacity Development, (2) training of Trainers (TOT): Strengthening National Food Laboratories, (3) improving competitiveness of SMEs through technical advisory support and (4) project coordination, monitoring and evaluation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Ce projet porte sur le renforcement et à l'harmonisation des normes de sécurité alimentaire en Afrique de l'Est. Il vise à renforcer les systèmes de réglementation alimentaire et à promouvoir la compétitivité des entreprises agroalimentaires, en particulier les MPME, ce qui sera essentiel pour s'attaquer aux barrières non tarifaires liées aux mesures sanitaires et phytosanitaires, facilitant ainsi efficacement le commerce de denrées alimentaires sûres et nutritives. En outre, le renforcement des chaînes de valeur alimentaires permettra d'assurer la continuité de l'approvisionnement alimentaire, ce qui est essentiel pour la subsistance des populations face à la pandémie actuelle de COVID-19 et à d'autres stress tels que les invasions de criquets pèlerins et les sécheresses qui sévissent dans certains pays de la région. Il offre également une occasion importante pour la Banque et le donateur FAPA de suivre et de soutenir la mise en œuvre du plan d'action de la politique de sécurité alimentaire par le biais du financement et de l'investissement. Le projet vise à améliorer le commerce intra-régional et international des denrées alimentaires en renforçant la capacité du mécanisme de coordination de la sécurité alimentaire du Comité de normalisation, des bureaux nationaux de normalisation et des laboratoires nationaux de sécurité alimentaire à promouvoir des produits de haute qualité et sûrs, en commençant par les États partenaires de la CAE. Le projet comprend quatre composantes principales, à savoir : (1) le développement de la capacité d'harmonisation régionale, (2) la formation des formateurs : le renforcement des laboratoires alimentaires nationaux, (3) l'amélioration de la compétitivité des PME par le biais d'un soutien consultatif technique et (4) la coordination, le suivi et l'évaluation du projet.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The overall goal of this technical assistance project is to support the competitiveness of agriculture value chain and enhance the resilience of the food systems particularly in the informal sector in the East&#13;

The resources of the loans to CIB will be utilised (i) to fund small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and corporates in strategic sectors including agriculture, agribusiness, manufacturing, services, ports, logistics, renewable energy and water desalination (ii) strengthening CIB’s capital base and (iii) funding trade including with the rest of Africa for the export and import of food, pharmaceuticals, electronics and consumer durable goods. In an environment characterized by liquidity squeeze and foreign currency shortages, the funding will prove countercyclical and will help CIB grow its lending portfolio leveraging the medium and long maturities of the different instruments. The project contributes to climate finance, with 41 million USD of the total approved amount dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet consiste en un financement de 148 millions de dollars des États-Unis (USD) effectué de la Banque africaine de développement et du Africa Growing Together Fund (AGTF) au profit de la Commercial International Bank d’Égypte, comprenant trois facilités de crédit, à savoir : une ligne de crédit à long terme d’une valeur de 10 millions d’USD, assortie d’une échéance de 10 ans ; un prêt subordonné de 90 millions d’USD comprenant une échéance de 10 ans ; et une ligne de crédit pour le financement du commerce se chiffrant à 48 millions d’USD, avec une échéance de 3,5 ans. Les ressources des prêts à la CIB seront utilisées : i) pour financer des petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) et des grandes entreprises dans des secteurs stratégiques qui englobent l’agriculture, l’agroindustrie, l’industrie manufacturière, les services, les ports, la logistique, les énergies renouvelables et le dessalement de l’eau ; ii) pour renforcer les fonds propres de la CIB ; et iii) pour financer les échanges commerciaux, notamment avec le reste de l’Afrique en ce qui concerne l’exportation et l’importation de produits alimentaires, pharmaceutiques, électroniques et de biens de consommation durables. Dans un environnement caractérisé par un resserrement des liquidités et par une pénurie de devises étrangères, le financement s’avérera anticyclique et aidera la CIB à développer son portefeuille de prêts en tirant parti des échéances à moyen et long terme des différents instruments. Le projet contribue au financement climatique, avec une enveloppe de 41 millions USD du montant total approuvé dédiée à l’atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project development objective is to facilitate access to long-term and trade finance for viable businesses in Egypt.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif de développement du projet est de faciliter l’accès au financement à long terme et au financement du commerce pour des entreprises viables en Égypte.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The proceeds of the loans granted by the African Development Bank (AfDB) and the Africa Growing Together Fund (AGTF) to Commercial International Bank (CIB) are intended for on-lending to the final borrowers.

The resources of the loans to CIB will be utilised (i) to fund small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and corporates in strategic sectors including agriculture, agribusiness, manufacturing, services, ports, logistics, renewable energy and water desalination (ii) strengthening CIB’s capital base and (iii) funding trade including with the rest of Africa for the export and import of food, pharmaceuticals, electronics and consumer durable goods.

Les ressources des prêts à la CIB seront utilisées : i) pour financer des petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) et des grandes entreprises dans des secteurs stratégiques qui englobent l’agriculture, l’agroindustrie, l’industrie manufacturière, les services, les ports, la logistique, les énergies renouvelables et le dessalement de l’eau ; ii) pour renforcer les fonds propres de la CIB ; et iii) pour financer les échanges commerciaux, notamment avec le reste de l’Afrique en ce qui concerne l’exportation et l’importation de produits alimentaires, pharmaceutiques, électroniques et de biens de consommation durables. Dans un environnement caractérisé par un resserrement des liquidités et par une pénurie de devises étrangères, le financement s’avérera anticyclique et aidera la CIB à développer son portefeuille de prêts en tirant parti des échéances à moyen et long terme des différents instruments.

In addition to the construction of the new fertilizer plant, the Project incorporates capital expenditures necessary to expand port operations and pipeline infrastructure to accommodate the increased production capacity. The Project will use the same technology, contractors, engineering, and equipment as Lines I and II, thereby minimizing project execution risks. The Project will also benefit from low gas prices under a long-term gas supply contract with NAOC JV (operated by AGIP), making the Company one of the lowest cost producers of urea worldwide.

Outre la construction de la nouvelle usine d’engrais, le projet prend en compte les dépenses d’investissement nécessaires au développement des opérations portuaires et de l’infrastructure de gazoducs pour faire face à l’accroissement de la capacité de production. Le présent projet utilisera la même technologie, les mêmes entrepreneurs, la même ingénierie et les mêmes équipements que les Lignes 1 et 2, ce qui réduira au minimum les risques liés à l’exécution du projet.

The likelihood of achieving development outcomes in a timely manner is assessed as High, supported by the positive track record of CFM and the substantial experience of the management team in deploying and managing similar projects.

The  country’s  threeprimary  corridorsprovide comparatively shorter corridor options. The road and railway systems that are used for transporting freight from neighboring countries gives them access to global markets for exports and imports. The main commodities transported along the corridorscomprise  of  raw  and  processed  minerals, agriculture  products, containerized freight, and bulk liquids. The Ressano Garcia Line services the Maputo corridor, which the targeted rolling stock will be deployed, is used mostly for the export of mineral products(bulk magnetite, ferro-chrome, chrome ore and coal)from South Africa’s north easterly mining belt through the port of Maputo, which provides the shortest access to a seaport. With upgraded development and the efficient operation of the corridor, the potential to expand the corridor to transport mining products destined for exports from countries in the North -South Corridor, including the DRC, is extremely high.  The RessanoGarcia Line (CFM-S on the Maputo Corridor) and the Sena Line  (CFM-C  on  the  Beira  Corridor)  are  the  key  rail  lines  generating  significant revenues for CFM.  The Maputo Corridor currently carries over 1,600 heavy vehicles per day, and accounts for about 30MTPA of freight. Whilst the GDP growth rate of the feeder countries to the corridor over the past 5-10 years has remained low at less than 2%, traffic growth on the other hand has been nearly twice, at around 5%, and is expected to average 4% over the next 20-30 years.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Mozambique, stratégiquement positionné dans la région de l'Afrique australe, est sans doute la principale porte d'entrée logistique pour les États de l'intérieur de la région comme le Zimbabwe, la Zambie, le Malawi et l'Eswatini.

Les réseaux routiers et ferroviaires utilisés pour transporter le fret des pays voisins leur permettent d'accéder aux marchés  mondiaux  pour  les  exportations  et  les  importations.  Lesprincipales marchandises transportées le long des corridors sont les minéraux bruts et transformés, les produits agricoles, le fret conteneurisé et les liquides en vrac. La ligne Ressano Garcia dessert le corridor de Maputo, où le matériel roulant ciblé sera déployé, est principalement utilisée pour l'exportation de produits minéraux (magnétite en vrac, ferrochrome, minerai de chrome et charbon) de la ceinture minière du nord-est de l'Afrique du Sud via le port de Maputo, qui offre l'accès le plus court à un port maritime. Avec l'amélioration du développement et l'exploitation efficace du corridor, le potentiel d'expansion du corridor pour le transport de produits miniers destinés à l'exportation depuis les pays du corridor Nord-Sud, y compris la RDC, est extrêmement élevé.  La ligne Ressano Garcia (CFM-S sur le corridor de Maputo) et la ligne Sena (CFM-C sur le  corridor  de  Beira) sont  les  principales lignes ferroviaires produisant des revenus importants pour la CFM.  Le corridor de Maputo transporte plus de 1 600 véhicules lourds par jour et représente environ 30 MTPA de fret. Alors que le taux de croissance du PIB des pays desservant le corridor au cours des 5 à 10 dernières années est resté faible (moins de 2 %), la croissance du trafic a presque doublé (environ 5 %) et devrait atteindre une moyenne de 4 % au cours des 20 à 30 prochaines années.  Les volumes de trafic devraient quadrupler au cours de cette période, la majeure partie provenant du transport ferroviaire. Une prévision de trafic sur la ligne Ressano Garcia réalisée par le cabinet de consultants SYSTRA prévoit que le trafic passera de 7 MT en 2022 à 18 MT en 2030 et 22 MT en 2040.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Portos e Caminhos de Ferro de Moçambique</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2024-01-31" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-01-31" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>RDGS</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Herbert HUNGWE</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>h.hungwe@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="MZ"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="1052373"/><name><narrative>Beira</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-19.8436 34.8389</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLA"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="1040652"/><name><narrative>Maputo</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-25.9655 32.5832</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLC"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="21030"><narrative>Rail transport</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.8.7" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Transport -

CRP was initially established as a US$50  million blended  finance platform  anchored  in  a  US$20  million  SEFA  concessional  loan  to be  blended  and  co-invested with  US$30  million  in  commercial  funding  from  three  specialized  energy  access  lenders  (CRP  Partners)  selected  through  a competitive process: Triple Jump (managing the Energy Entrepreneurs Growth Fund), Lion’s Head Global Partners (managing the Facility for Energy Inclusion Off-Grid Energy Fund)and Social Investment Managers and Advisors (managing SIMA Fund IandSIMA  Angaza  Distributor  Finance  Fund).  Despite  resilience  of  the  sector,  energy  access  companies  continue  to face operational  disruptions,  business  uncertainty  and  liquidity  constrains  as  a  result  of  the  extended  impacts  of  the  COVID-19 pandemic and war in Ukraine. In this context, AfDB approved a US$20 million top-up of the platform -CRP phase II –to continue the original programme and facilitate the provision of affordable debt products to EA companies. This project primarily contributes to climate mitigation results. As such, 100% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La plateforme de redressement hors réseau COVID-19 (CRP) est une initiative historique de la Banque approuvée en décembre 2020 pour fournir un capital de secours et de redressement aux entreprises d'accès à l'énergie (AE), afin d'atténuer les impacts négatifs de la pandémie COVID-19 tout en faisant progresser l'accès à l'électricité propre et en favorisant un secteur plus viable et plus robuste après la crise. Le CRP a été initialement établi comme une plateforme de financement mixte de 50 millions de dollars US, ancrée dans un prêt concessionnel SEFA de 20 millions de dollars US qui sera mélangé et co-investi avec 30 millions de dollars US de financement commercial provenant de trois prêteurs spécialisés dans l'accès à l'énergie (partenaires du CRP) sélectionnés par un processus compétitif : Triple Jump (qui gère l'Energy Entrepreneurs Growth Fund), Lion's Head Global Partners (qui gère le Facility for Energy Inclusion Off-Grid Energy Fund) et Social Investment Managers and Advisors (qui gère SIMA Fund IetSIMA Angaza Distributor Finance Fund).  Malgré la résilience du secteur, les entreprises d'accès à l'énergie continuent de faire face à des perturbations opérationnelles, à des incertitudes commerciales et à des contraintes de liquidité en raison des impacts prolongés de la pandémie COVID-19 et de la guerre en Ukraine. Dans ce contexte, la BAD a approuvé un complément de 20 millions de dollars US de la plateforme -CRP phase II- pour poursuivre le programme original et faciliter la fourniture de produits de dette abordables aux entreprises d'EA. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'adaptation au climat. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation au climat.

Article 6 of the Paris Agreement comprises the toolbox of such approaches for its implementation. Some market-based approaches for mitigation have already been defined in Article 6. Others, in particular non-market approaches for adaptation and mitigation are expected to be developed bottom up and brought into the Paris Agreement toolbox at a later stage. All these approaches would provide access to new sources of international finance, such as through the carbon markets or new finance sources for adaptation and mitigation. This project focuses on enabling the private sector to participate in the already defined international climate finance cooperative market based approaches for mitigation and in two new cooperative non-market approaches for adaptation with potential co-benefits for mitigation (Adaptation Benefits Mechanism and Park Bonds).</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L'Accord de Paris permet aux pays d'utiliser volontairement diverses approches coopératives fondées sur le marché et non fondées sur le marché pour atténuer les effets du changement climatique et s'y adapter afin de mettre en œuvre leurs contributions déterminées au niveau national (CDN). L'article 6 de l'Accord de Paris comprend la boîte à outils de ces approches pour sa mise en œuvre. Certaines approches fondées sur le marché pour l'atténuation ont déjà été définies à l'article 6. D'autres, en particulier les approches non fondées sur le marché pour l'adaptation et l'atténuation, devraient être élaborées selon une approche ascendante et intégrées à la boîte à outils de l'Accord de Paris à un stade ultérieur. Toutes ces approches permettraient d'accéder à de nouvelles sources de financement international, par exemple grâce aux marchés du carbone ou à de nouvelles sources de financement pour l'adaptation et l'atténuation. Ce projet vise à permettre au secteur privé de participer aux approches coopératives fondées sur le marché déjà définies au niveau international pour le financement de la lutte contre le changement climatique en matière d'atténuation, ainsi qu'à deux nouvelles approches coopératives non fondées sur le marché pour l'adaptation présentant des avantages potentiels pour l'atténuation (mécanisme des avantages liés à l'adaptation et obligations « parcs »).</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The long-term goal of this project is to incentivize the African private sector to undertake climate change mitigation and adaptation action.

</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Bank’s financing will enable Sucden SA to deepen its financial investments to the cocoa sector in Cameroon, Ghana and Nigeria. This investment will increase financing to the agriculture sector for which local banks tend to have limited appetite, thereby creating financing gaps that commodity traders such as Sucden SA play an important role to fill. The Bank’s capacity to provide a 2-year facility to enable Sucden SA finance its cocoa operations is an important component of our additionality. These investments will boost the internal management systems of Sucden SA’s suppliers to allow them to be compliant with new global regulations on cocoa exports, including the European Union Deforestation Regulation (“EU DR”). Investment will specifically focus on strengthening  data  collection,  analysis,  interpretation,  and  storage  systems  with  regards  to geographical data of cocoa farms and data on child labor.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le financement de la Banque permettra à Sucden SA de consolider ses investissements financiers dans le secteur du cacao au Cameroun, au Ghana et au Nigeria. Cet investissement permettra d’accroître les financements destinés au secteur agricole, pour lequelles banques locales ont tendance à avoir une appétence limitée, créant ainsi des déficits de financement que les négociants en matières premières, tels que Sucden SA, contribuent largement à combler. La capacité de la Banque à fournir une facilité sur deux ans pour permettre à Sucden SA de financer ses opérations dans le secteur du cacao constitue un élément important de son additionnalité. Ces investissements renforceront les systèmes de gestion interne des fournisseurs de Sucden SA afin de leur permettre de se conformer aux nouvelles réglementations mondiales sur les exportations de cacao, y compris le Règlement de l’Union Européenne sur la Déforestation (« RDUE »). Les investissements seront spécifiquement axés sur le renforcement des systèmes de collecte, d’analyse, d’interprétation et de stockage des données concernant la localisation géographique des exploitations de cacao et les données sur le travail des enfants.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Sucres et Denrées Côte D'Ivoire</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2024-04-30" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2024-12-17" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PINS2</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Daniel Constant M'PENG BAYOI</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>d.m-bayoi@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2220957"/><name><narrative>Yaoundé</narrative></name><administrative code="816" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="12473" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>3.86667 11.5167</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLC"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2352778"/><name><narrative>Abuja</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>9.05735 7.48976</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLC"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2306104"/><name><narrative>Accra</narrative></name><administrative code="1328" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="16621" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>5.55602 -0.1969</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="32161"><narrative>Agro-industries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.9.4" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Industry -

La transaction soutiendra les fournisseurs de Sucden SA le long de la chaîne de valeur des fèves de cacao en matière de développement, de logistique et de délai de livraison au client, garantissant ainsi une chaîne d’approvisionnement plus efficace.

This investment will increase financing to the agriculture sector for which local banks tend to have limited appetite, thereby creating financing gaps that commodity traders such as Sucden SA play an important role to fill. The Bank’s capacity to provide a 2-year facility to enable Sucden SA finance its cocoa operations is an important component of our additionality. These investments will boost the internal management systems of Sucden SA’s suppliers to allow them to be compliant with new global regulations on cocoa exports, including the European Union Deforestation Regulation (“EU DR”). Investment will specifically focus on strengthening data collection, analysis, interpretation, and storage systems with regards to geographical data of cocoa farms and data on child labor.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le financement de la Banque permettra à Sucden SA de consolider ses investissements financiers dans le secteur du cacao au Cameroun, au Ghana et au Nigeria. Cet investissement permettra d’accroître les financements destinés au secteur agricole, pour lequelles banques locales ont tendance à avoir une appétence limitée, créant ainsi des déficits de financement que les négociants en matières premières, tels que Sucden SA, contribuent largement à combler. La capacité de la Banque à fournir une facilité sur deux ans pour permettre à Sucden SA de financer ses opérations dans le secteur du cacao constitue un élément important de son additionnalité. Ces investissements renforceront les systèmes de gestion interne des fournisseurs de Sucden SA afin de leur permettre de se conformer aux nouvelles réglementations mondiales sur les exportations de cacao, y compris le Règlement de l’Union Européenne sur la Déforestation (« RDUE »). Les investissements seront spécifiquement axés sur le renforcement des systèmes de collecte, d’analyse, d’interprétation et de stockage des données concernant la localisation géographique des exploitations de cacao et les données sur le travail des enfants.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Sucres et Denrées Côte D'Ivoire</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2024-04-30" type="1"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>AHFR1</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Charles Dzifa DOLLIE</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, AHFR1</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>c.dollie@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2352778"/><name><narrative>Abuja</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>9.05735 7.48976</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLC"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2306104"/><name><narrative>Accra</narrative></name><administrative code="1328" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="16621" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>5.55602 -0.1969</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2220957"/><name><narrative>Yaoundé</narrative></name><administrative code="816" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="12473" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>3.86667 11.5167</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLC"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="32161"><narrative>Agro-industries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.9.4" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Industry -

Port of Cotonou (PAC) 2021-2026 Port Master Plan (PMP) is a 5-year investment program aiming to renovate and replace obsolete port infrastructure, and to expand capacity, while improving service quality to attract additional traffic. The PMP consists of 12 projects which objectives are: i) provide access for larger vessels, ii) increase handling efficiency, iii) reduce waiting times for vessels and transit times for trucks, iv) augment the port’s capacity to over 20 million tons, v) develop the port industry sector of Benin and vi) maintain the PAC’s position as a key transit port for landlocked countries such as Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali. The Bank is looking to contribute to the financing of the PMP through the two following projects: (1) Project 1: Construction of the new terminal (T5) to the east of the existing port with an additional capacity of 20ha which will be dedicated to bulk and breakbulk products. (2) Project 2: The centralized access &amp; Zongo parking which aims to centralize truck access at a single point and will be equipped with automated gates. The construction of a truck parking on the Zongo site with an integrated and digitalized management system linked to the port and single window (GUCE) databases will facilitate and accelerate the processing of goods. The project contributes to climate finance, with 31 million USD of the total approved amount dedicated to adaptation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention est relative à la modernisation et l’extension du Port autonome de Cotonou.

It relates to a USD 20 million funding proposal from AfDB’s Green Climate Fund (GCF) administered resources. This proposal consists of : (i) USD 13.25 million senior Line of Credit (LoC) to Ecobank Ghana, (ii) USD 5.25 million Climate Technology Grant (CTG) and (iii) USD 1.5 million Technical Assistance (TA) from the Green Climate Fund (GCF), through the Bank acting as Accredited Entity (AE) for the AFAWA Program in Ghana. The program aims to provide below market rates loans in Ghanaian Cedis with a longer tenor to enhance rural women access to credit. The USD5.25 million grant financing will be used to provide, manage and coordinate the climate technologies for the most vulnerable women-led FarmerBased Associations (FBAs) and the USD1.5 million TA will support the effective implementation of Climate Resilient Agricultural (CRA) practices by women- led FBAs, Micro-, Small- and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and EGH staff along the agricultural value chain in the most vulnerable agroecological zone of Ghana. The program envisages to provide agricultural inputs such as solar pumps and efficient irrigation systems to address scarcity and variability of rainfall particularly during periods of drought. The program is a bold effort to significantly empower and leverage finance for women in Africa, especially in financing climate resilient measures through women entrepreneurship. It is expected to provide good outcomes for the agriculture sector in Ghana, including climate resilience agriculture practices and greater access to finance for women.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent programme est relatif à l’initiative pour favoriser l’accès des femmes au financement en Afrique (AFAWA) : "Ecobank Ghana Limited". Il porte sur une proposition de financement de 20 millions d’USD provenant des ressources du Fonds vert pour le climat administrées par la BAD. Cette proposition consiste en : (i) une ligne de crédit de premier rang de 13,25 millions USD à Ecobank Ghana afin d’être prêtés aux associations agricoles portées par des femmes ; (ii) 5,25 millions USD de don en faveur des technologies climatiques (CTG) ; et (iii) 1,5 million USD d’assistance technique du Fonds vert pour le climat (FVC) par l’intermédiaire de la Banque agissant en qualité d’entité accréditée pour le programme AFAWA au Ghana. Le programme vise à fournir des prêts aux taux inférieurs à ceux du marché en cédis ghanéens avec une durée plus longue permettant d’améliorer l'accès au crédit. Le financement sous forme de subvention de 5,25 millions USD sera utilisé pour fournir, gérer et coordonner les technologies climatiques pour les coopératives agricoles féminines les plus vulnérables. L'AT de 1,5 million USD soutiendra la mise en œuvre efficace des pratiques pour une Agriculture Résiliente au Changement Climatique (ARCC) par les coopératives agricoles des femmes (FBA), le personnel des micro, les petites et moyennes entreprises (MPME) et EGH tout le long de la chaîne de valeur agricole dans la zone agro-écologique la plus vulnérable du Ghana. Le programme prévoit la fourniture intrants agricoles, tels que des pompes fonctionnant à l’énergie solaire et des systèmes d’irrigation efficients pour faire face à la rareté et à la variabilité des précipitations, surtout en période de sécheresse. Le programme relève d’un effort louable visant à renforcer nettement l’autonomie des Africaines et à mobiliser des financements en leur faveur, notamment en finançant des mesures résilientes aux effets du changement climatique par l’entrepreneuriat féminin. Il devrait obtenir de bons résultats pour le secteur agricole du Ghana, y compris des pratiques agricoles de résilience au changement climatique et un meilleur accès au financement pour les femmes.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The major objective of the program is to provide below market rates local currency loan products, climate technology grant and Technical Assistance to women-led FBAs, and MSMEs along the agricultural value chain in the most vulnerable agro-ecological zone of Ghana.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif principal du programme est de fournir des produits de prêt en monnaie locale en dessous des taux de marché, des dons pour les technologies propres et une assistance technique aux associations agricoles et aux TPE-PME dirigées par des femmes tout le long de la chaîne de valeur agricole dans la zone agroécologique la plus vulnérable du Ghana.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The direct beneficiaries of the program are women led MSMEs and Farmer Based Associations (FBAs) in the most 43 vulnerable districts of Ghana to climate change impacts and those with depth and severity of poverty.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les bénéficiaires directs du programme sont les TPE-PME et les associations agricoles dirigées par des femmes dans les 43 districts les plus vulnérables du Ghana aux impacts du changement climatique et ceux qui connaissent une forte pauvreté endémique.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-GCF" type="40"><narrative>Green Climate Fund</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="GH-COA-053" type="10"><narrative>EcoBank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2020-12-17" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2024-06-05" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PIFD1</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Tiatan Mariam YEO-DEMBELE</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, PIFD1</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>t.dembele@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="GH"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2300569"/><name><narrative>Greater Accra Region</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>5.75 0</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="24030"><narrative>Formal sector financial intermediaries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.12.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Microfinance and financial services -

Bancobu is a leading local bank headquartered in Bujumbura - Burundi and operating through a network of 49 branches across 16 provinces in Burundi. Established in 1960, Bancobu is registered and based in Burundi ranking first in the country in terms of balance-sheet size and employs approximately 400 people. Bancobu offers personal, SME, Corporate and Institutional banking services. Bancobu is a leading player in the SMEs trade financing activities, supporting SMEs operating in sectors such as agriculture and manufacturing. Bancobu operates in a challenging environment and its cost of international financial transactions has increased due to the high-risk perception of Burundi. The Facility will allow the Bank to provide up to 100% guarantee to Confirming Banks (CBs) for the non-payment risk arising from the confirmation of letters of credit and similar trade finance instruments issued by Bancobu. The facility is uncommitted. The facility will cover mainly strategic economic sectors provided with priority access to FX reserves.  Climate finance is not attributed to this project.&#13;

La Bancobu est une banque locale de premier plan dont le siège est situé à Bujumbura et qui opère à travers un réseau de 49 agences réparties dans 16 provinces du pays. Créée en 1960, i. Elle se classe au premier rang dans le pays en termes de taille de bilan et emploie environ 400 personnes. Acteur de premier plan dans les activités de financement du commerce, Bancobu soutient les PME qui interviennent dans des secteurs tels que l’agriculture et l’industrie manufacturière. La Bancobu intervient dans un environnement difficile et le coût de ses transactions financières internationales a augmenté en raison de la perception du Burundi comme un pays à haut risque. La facilité permettra à la Banque d’accorder une garantie à concurrence de 100 % aux banques de confirmation (BC) afin de couvrir le risque de non-paiement découlant de la confirmation des lettres de crédit et des instruments de financement du commerce similaires émis par la Bancobu. Il s’agit d’une facilité non engagée. Elle couvrira essentiellement l’acquisition de biens et de services stratégiques, avec un accès prioritaire aux réserves de change. Le financement climatique n'est pas attribué à ce projet.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The proposed facility will help address critical market demand for Trade Finance in Burundi by supporting trade in various vital economic sectors such as agriculture and manufacturing. The facility will ultimately provide support to SMEs and women-led businesses to facilitate their import and export trade finance requirements. This will foster financial sector development and generate more tax revenue through import duties and higher corporate profits in Burundi. It will equally strengthen trade &amp; regional integration between Burundi and her regional neighbors.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La facilité proposée permettra de répondre à la forte demande du marché pour le financement du commerce au Burundi en soutenant le commerce dans divers secteurs essentiels de l’économie, notamment l’agriculture et l’industrie manufacturière. En définitive, elle apportera un soutien aux PME et autres entreprises dirigées par des femmes de manière à faciliter leur accès au financement des activités du commercial international. Cela favorisera le développement du secteur financier et générera davantage de recettes fiscales grâce aux droits d’importation et à l’augmentation des bénéfices des entreprises au Burundi. Par ailleurs, la facilité renforcera le commerce et l’intégration régionale entre le Burundi et ses voisins de la région.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The ultimate beneficiaries include Bancobu’s SME and local corporate client in Burundi involved in international trade.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les bénéficiaires finaux sont les PME et autres entreprises locales clientes de la Bancobu au Burundi qui interviennent dans le commerce international.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Banque Commerciale du Burundi</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2023-03-27" type="1"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>RDGE</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Bernard Mukhutsi MUHATI</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Trade Finance Officer, PIFD3</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>b.muhati@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="BI"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="433561"/><name><narrative>Burundi</narrative></name><administrative code="40548" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="40618" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-3.5 30</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="PCLI"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="425378"/><name><narrative>Bujumbura</narrative></name><administrative code="40543" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="40577" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-3.3822 29.3644</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLX"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="24030"><narrative>Formal sector financial intermediaries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.12.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Microfinance and financial services -

The proposed intervention is in line with donor assistance aimed at supporting the authorities in implementing the NDP 2021-2025. The AfDB GPC's additionality and comparative advantage are mainly financial, enabling Côte d'Ivoire to: (i) increase the liquidity available to Côte d'Ivoire from international investors, through the provision of a credit enhancement instrument; (ii) considerably extend the maturity of the ESG loan offered by commercial banks; (iii) reduce its interest rate, thereby reducing debt servicing for Côte d'Ivoire; (iv) diversify the mechanisms for mobilizing financing through sustainable loans and improved access to climate finance; and (v) build up its track record of ESG borrowings so that it can raise resources autonomously on the international financial markets in the future.

Le Nouvel APR offrira une couverture individuelle maximale de 50% et s’étalera sur une période de 3 ans, avec la possibilité d’une extension de 6 mois et la maturité des transactions sous-jacentes n’excèdera pas 2 années. Pour soutenir les BE et les PME dans les PFR et les Etats en transition, la Banque, conformément aux lignes directrices concernant le financement du commerce, couvrira à hauteur de 75 % le risque de défaillance des transactions ayant un impact significatif sur le développement et réalisées par des banques locales jouissant d'une bonne réputation de solvabilité. Le nouvel APR couvrira au moins une trentaine de BE dans 18 pays membres régionaux (PMR), dont 5 Etats en transition à savoir Burkina Faso, Mali, Guinée, Niger et Togo.

The Facility will allow AfDB to provide up to 100% coverage to Confirming Banks (CBs) for the non-payment risk on letters of credit and other similar trade finance instruments originated by BOAT. The proposed facility limit of up to USD 7.5 million is uncommitted. This gives the Bank the flexibility to amend or withdraw the limit as it sees fit without notice or consequence. The facility will be deployed more flexibly to specific target segments such as SMEs (including those owned by women) and local corporates in the tradable sector, and manufacturing enterprises in Tanzania. It’s envisaged that the facility will also actively support more intra-Africa trade between Tanzania, SADC, East Africa, and the rest of Africa. By providing the proposed TG, BOAT will be able to support the import of essential commodities and equipment.

La facilité permettra à la BAD de fournir jusqu’à 100% de couverture aux banques confirmatrices (BC) pour le risque de nonpaiement sur les lettres de crédit et d’autres instruments similaires de financement du commerce émanant de la BOAT. La limite proposée de 7,5 millions d’USD n’est pas engagée. Cela donne à la Banque la possibilité de modifier ou de retirer la limite comme elle l’entend, sans préavis ni conséquence. La facilité sera déployée de manière plus flexible vers des segments cibles spécifiques tels que les PME et les entreprises locales du secteur commercial, les entreprises manufacturières et les PME (y compris celles détenues par des femmes) en Tanzanie. Il est prévu que la facilité soutienne activement le commerce intra-africain entre la Tanzanie, la SADC, l’Afrique de l’Est et le reste de l’Afrique.

This is the first proposal to the Bank under the new TG instrument. CABS was established as a building society in 1954. The facility, which will be unconfirmed, will allow the Bank to provide up to 100% guarantee to Confirming Banks (CBs) for the non-payment risk arising from the confirmation of letters of credit and similar trade finance instruments issued by CABS. This operation will enable CBs to increase their exposure towards CABS in Zimbabwe, which CABS cannot easily get elsewhere given the significantly reduced credit appetite for Zimbabwe by international financiers (de-risking). Climate finance is not attributed to this project. </narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente opération porte sur une Garantie de transaction (GT) de 7,5 millions d’USD destinée à soutenir les activités de financement du commerce de la Central Africa Building Society (CABS) au Zimbabwe.

Non confirmée, cette facilité permettra de garantir jusqu’à 100 % du risque de non-paiement aux banques confirmatrices (BC) lié à la confirmation de lettres de crédit et autres instruments de financement du commerce émis par la CABS. Cette opération permettra aux BC d’accroître leur exposition auprès de la CABS au Zimbabwe, que la CABS ne peut facilement obtenir ailleurs, du fait de l’appétence de crédit considérablement réduite des bailleurs de fonds internationaux (diminution des risques) pour le Zimbabwe.

Under this partnership, the Bank and Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank (CACIB) will share the default risk on a portfolio of eligible trade finance instruments issued by African issuing banks and confirmed by CACIB. The proposed RPA will enable CACIB to provide risk coverage to support nearly 53 local and regional African issuing banks (IBs) covering 24 regional member countries (RMCs) directly and indirectly, including at least 9 Transition States and LICs, thereby promoting trade and economic activity in Africa. The proposed facility will help meet the growing demand for TF in post-COVID Africa through the provision of trade support in critical economic sectors such as agriculture, health, manufacturing and services. The project primely contributes towards climate mitigation result. As such 10% of the total approval is attributed as climate finance, out of which 5 million USD is mitigation finance.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Cette intervention est un accord de participation au risque (RPA) non financé de 50 millions de dollars.

Le mécanisme proposé contribuera à répondre à la demande croissante de la FE dans l'Afrique post-COVID grâce à l'apport d'un soutien commercial dans des secteurs économiques essentiels tels que l'agriculture, la santé, l'industrie manufacturière et les services.

The planned intervention would enable Benin to mobilise on the international financial market from financial institutions and private institutional investors innovative long-term and competitive financing exclusively allocated to eligible expenditure in areas aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), namely: agriculture and agro-industry, water and sanitation, health, affordable housing, education, renewable energies, digital, job creation for young people and women, infrastructure, climate action, biodiversity conservation and tourism. The project is structured around a single component, which is support for the mobilisation of long-term resources on competitive terms dedicated to SDG expenditure. Indeed, since December 2016, the Government of Benin has developed an institutional architecture devoted to the implementation of Agenda 2030. This component will support the Government of Benin in mobilizing long-term resources from international financial institutions for the financing of the real economy through projects aligned with the SDGs.

L’intervention envisagée permettrait au Bénin de mobiliser sur le marché financier international auprès de banques et d’investisseurs institutionnels privés un financement innovant à long terme et compétitif exclusivement affecté à des dépenses éligibles dans des domaines alignés aux objectifs de développement durable (ODD), à savoir: agriculture et agro-industrie, eau et assainissement, santé, logement abordable, éducation, énergies renouvelables, digital, création d’emploi pour les jeunes et les femmes, infrastructures, action climatique, conservation de la biodiversité, et tourisme. Le Projet s’articule autour d’une seule composante qui est le soutien à la mobilisation des ressources longues à des conditions compétitives dédiés aux dépenses ODD. En effet, depuis décembre 2016, le Gouvernement béninois a élaboré une architecture institutionnelle consacrée à la mise en œuvre de l’Agenda 2030. Cette composante va soutenir le gouvernement béninois à mobiliser des ressources longues provenant d’institutions financières internationales pour le financement de l’économie réelle à travers des projets alignés aux ODD. Le projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'adaptation au climat. Ainsi, 50 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 102 millions USD dédiés à l'adaptation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project would contribute to promoting inclusive growth and achievement of the SDGs by Benin through the mobilisation of an SDG loan on competitive terms for the country. Indeed, by increasing the appetite of international investors in a context of volatility and deteriorating market conditions, the ADF PCG would enable Benin to access the international financial market on competitive terms to mobilise a long-term SDG loan. The proceeds of the financing would be exclusively dedicated to the SDGs, meeting part of the significant financing needs for achieving the SDGs. The operation would thus contribute to the structural transformation of the Beninese economy by supporting the efforts of the authorities to achieve the SDGs.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Projet contribuerait à favoriser une croissance inclusive et l’atteinte des ODD par le Bénin à travers la mobilisation d’un prêt ODD à des termes compétitifs pour le pays. En effet, en augmentant l’appétit des investisseurs internationaux dans un contexte de volatilité et de détérioration des conditions de marché, la GPC FAD permettrait au Bénin d’accéder au marché financier international à des conditions compétitives pour mobiliser un prêt ODD à long terme. Le produit du financement serait exclusivement dédié aux ODD, comblant une partie des besoins de financement important pour l’atteinte des ODD. L’opération contribuerait ainsi à la transformation structurelle de l’économie béninoise en accompagnant les efforts des autorités pour l’atteinte des ODD.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The direct beneficiary of the envisaged operation is Benin through the credit enhancement induced by the ADF, enabling the country to access the international financial market to mobilise an SDG loan on favourable terms, despite the difficult global context. In addition, institutional investors as well as international insurers and banks benefit from the operation. Indeed, granting of the PCG to Benin will provide additional comfort to investors to take more risk on exposure to the country. The indirect beneficiary is the entire population of Benin through the allocation of the mobilised SDG financing exclusively to eligible expenditure and projects contributing to achieving the SDGs, thus promoting sustainable and inclusive growth. Benin had a population of about 12.5 million in 2021, 51.2% of whom are women.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le bénéficiaire direct de l’opération envisagée est le Bénin à travers le rehaussement de crédit induit par la garantie FAD permettant au pays d’accéder au marché financier international pour mobiliser un prêt ODD à des termes favorables malgré le contexte mondial difficile. De plus, les investisseurs institutionnels ainsi que les assureurs et banques internationales bénéficient de l’opération. En effet, l’octroi de la GPC au profit du Bénin permettra d’apporter un confort supplémentaire aux investisseurs à prendre davantage de risque sur une exposition au Bénin.

It aims to share the default risk on a portfolio of eligible trade finance instruments originated by African issuing banks (IBs) and confirmed by FRB. The proposed facility will help address the critical market demand for trade finance in Africa by supporting trade in various vital economic sectors such as agriculture, energy, manufacturing, and construction. In addition, the project will promote intra-Africa trade and regional integration as it is expected to finance at least USD 150 million in intra-Africa trade. By using a facility threshold of USD1 million as a proxy of SME transactions, it is envisaged that at least 68% of total transactions supported will be for the benefit of SMEs over the next 3 years. Ultimately, the facility would facilitate the importation of critical capital goods, agricultural inputs, foodstuffs, and post-COVID – 19 related medical supplies and support SMEs in the RMCs involved in wholesale and retail trade. The project primarily contributes to climate adaptation results. As such, 50% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 38 million USD is dedicated to adaptation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La facilité envisagée est un accord de participation aux risques (APR) en faveur de FirstRand Bank Limited (FRB). Elle vise à répartir le risque de défaut sur un portefeuille d'instruments de financement commercial éligibles émis par des banques émettrices africaines et confirmés par FRB. La facilité envisagée permettra de répondre à un besoin crucial de financement du commerce en Afrique en facilitant les transactions dans divers secteurs vitaux de l’économie tels que l'agriculture, l'énergie, l'industrie manufacturière et la construction. En outre, le projet favorisera le commerce intra-africain et l'intégration régionale dans la mesure où il devrait financer le commerce intra-africain à hauteur d'au moins 150 millions d’USD. En utilisant un seuil de facilité de 1 millions d’USD comme seuil de référence pour les transactions des PME, il est prévu qu'au moins 68 % du total des transactions soutenues bénéficieront aux PME au cours des trois prochaines années. À terme, cet instrument facilitera l'importation de biens d'équipement essentiels, d'intrants agricoles, de denrées alimentaires et de fournitures médicales pour la période post-COVID-19, et appuiera les PME opérant dans le commerce de gros et de détail dans les PMR. Le projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'adaptation au climat.

The Nachtigal project consists of the design, construction and operation of a dam and hydroelectric plant on the Sanaga River. The run-of-river hydroelectric plant will generate 420 MW (equivalent to 7 x 60 MW generators) of electricity and will also have 225 kV high voltage lines covering a distance of 50 km from the project to the Nyom 2 substation, located north of Yaoundé. The project comprises a compacted concrete dam, 1,400 m wide and up to 14 m high, a 421 ha reservoir, a 3.3 km headrace canal, a hydroelectric power station with seven 60 MW turbines (for a combined capacity of 420 MW) and offices. The planned maximum flow from the power station will be 980 m3/s. The flow to the dam will be regulated upstream by the Mbakaou and Lom Pangar dams, with dry season flows of up to 650 m3/s.

Le projet de Nachtigal consiste en la conception, la construction et l’exploitation d’un barrage et d’une centrale hydroélectrique sur le fleuve Sanaga. Cette centrale hydroélectrique au fil de l’eau produira 420 MW (soit l’équivalent de 7 groupes électrogènes de 60 MW) d’électricité, et sera par ailleurs dotée de lignes « haute tension » de 225 kV, couvrant une distance de 50 km entre le projet et le poste de Nyom 2, situé au nord de Yaoundé. Le projet comprend un barrage en béton compacté, d’une largeur de 1 400 m et d’une hauteur maximale de 14 m, une retenue d’eau d’une superficie de 421 ha, un canal d’amenée long de 3,3 km, une centrale hydroélectrique équipée de sept turbines de 60 MW (pour une puissance combinée de 420 MW) et des bureaux. Le débit maximal prévu de la centrale sera de 980 m3/s. Le débit jusqu’au barrage sera régulé en amont par les barrages de Mbakaou et Lom Pangar, étant entendu que les débits en saison sèche peuvent atteindre 650 m3/s.

The partnership has two components: i) an unfunded risk-sharing component of USD 100 million, and ii) a funded component of USD 100 million, under which the Bank will provide liquidity of up to 50% on a risk-sharing basis for eligible trade transactions to support local African issuing banks (EBs). A new Risk Participation Agreement will be concluded between the Bank and SMBCE for unfunded and funded risk participations. The New RPA will replace the unfunded RPA between the Bank and SMBCE that expired in November 2019 (the "First RPA"). Under the proposed partnership, the AfDB and SMBCE will share equally the risk of default of a portfolio of eligible CF instruments proposed by African IBs and confirmed by SMBCE. The New RPA envelope will enable SMBCE to provide risk and liquidity coverage to African domiciled IBs, thereby promoting regional trade and economic activity on the continent. The project will support 45 local and regional African IBs with a pan-African presence covering directly and indirectly nearly 17 RMCs, including 9 transition states.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La présente intervention est relative au programme « Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited ». Elle porte sur un partenariat régional de 200 millions d'USD pour le financement du commerce (FC) – garanties et financements partiels au profit des banques locales africaines. Le partenariat comporte deux composantes : i) une composante partage de risques non financée de 100 millions d'USD, et ii) une composante financée de 100 millions d'USD, au titre duquel la Banque fournira des liquidités jusqu'à 50 % sur la base du partage des risques pour les transactions commerciales admissibles, en vue de soutenir les banques émettrices (BE) locales africaines. Un nouvel accord de participation au risque sera conclu entre la Banque et SMBCE pour les participations au risque non financées et financées. Le Nouvel APR remplacera l’APR non financé qui a été conclu entre la Banque et SMBCE et qui a pris fin en novembre 2019 (le « Premier APR »). Dans le cadre du partenariat proposé, la BAD et SMBCE partageront, à parts égales, le risque de défaillance d'un portefeuille d'instruments de FC admissibles proposés par des BE africaines et confirmés par SMBCE. L'enveloppe du Nouvel APR permettra à SMCBE de fournir une couverture des risques et des liquidités aux BE domiciliées en Afrique, ce qui favorisera le commerce régional et l'activité économique sur le continent. Le projet soutiendra 45 BE locales et régionales africaines avec une présence panafricaine couvrant directement et indirectement près de 17 PMR, dont 9 États en

The AFAWA’s aim is to close the estimated USD 42 billion financing gap for women in Africa, unlock their entrepreneurial capacity, increase women’s economic participation, and achieve maximum development impact. To unlock Women Empowered-Business (WEB), the Bank is establishing an innovative Risk Sharing Mechanism (“AFAWA Risk Sharing Mechanism or RSM”) with the support of various donors that will catalyse USD 3 billion in new financing to WEBs over an investment period of 6 years. Under the risk-sharing mechanism, the Bank should also act as an implementing partner by providing portfolio guarantees related to women's entrepreneurship directly to the relevant financial institutions lending in the women's entrepreneurship market. The RSM comprises three critical components to ensure successful execution including: (1) an equity capital injection to IPs of up to $75 million, to further strengthen the selected IPs willing to implement the RSM; (2) Additional risk capacity to IPs in the form of portfolio PCGs issued by the Bank of up to $750 million; (3) the provision of a counter guarantee from donors of up to USD 300 million to the Bank, providing sizeable capital relief to the Bank.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le présent projet porte sur le Mécanisme de partage des risques de l’initiative Action positive pour le financement en faveur des femmes en Afrique (AFAWA). L’AFAWA vise à résorber le déficit de financement estimatif de 42 milliards de dollars des États-Unis (USD) qui touche les femmes en Afrique, à libérer l’esprit d’entreprise des femmes africaines, à accroître leur participation économique et à induire un effet positif maximal en termes de développement. En vue de débloquer le financement d’entreprises féminines (WEB), la Banque se dote en ce moment d’un mécanisme novateur de partage des risques (dénommé le « Mécanisme de partage des risques d’AFAWA, en abrégé MPR »), avec le concours de divers bailleurs de fonds qui mobiliseront trois milliards d’USD de nouveaux financements en faveur des entreprises féminines, sur une période d’investissement de six ans. En vertu du mécanisme de partage des risques, la Banque devrait aussi faire office de partenaire d’exécution en fournissant directement aux institutions financières concernées, qui prêtent sur le marché de l’entrepreneuriat féminin, des garanties de portefeuille en lien avec ce type d’entrepreneuriat. Le mécanisme de partage des risques de l’AFAWA comprend trois composantes essentielles dont le but est d’assurer la réussite de l’exécution, notamment : 1) une injection de capital dans les partenaires d’exécution, jusqu’à concurrence de 75 millions d’USD ; 2) une capacité de risque supplémentaire pour les partenaires d’exécution sous forme de garanties partielles de crédit pour le portefeuille émises par la Banque, jusqu’à hauteur de 750 millions d’USD; 3) la fourniture à la Banque d’une contre-garantie pouvant culminer à 300 millions d’USD, émise par des bailleurs de fonds, ce qui représente un allègement de fonds propres important pour la Banque.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of the project is to unlocking USD 1.3 billion of WEB financing across Africa.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet est de favoriser le déblocage de 1,3 milliard de dollars de financement en faveur des WEB en Afrique.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The beneficiaries of the project are women-led enterprises, women entrepreneurs and SMEs run by women.

Le financement de la Banque sera déployé dans les principales chaînes de valeur d'ETG en Afrique (notamment au Bénin, au Ghana, en Côte d'Ivoire, au Sénégal, au Nigeria, au Burkina Faso, en Éthiopie, au Kenya, en Tanzanie, en Ouganda, au Malawi, au Mozambique, au Zimbabwe et en Zambie) afin de soutenir les installations de traitement et d'emballage, les entrepôts et les dépôts, et de fournir des engrais et des intrants agricoles dans le cadre de la tranche à terme de l'IFD. Il est possible que le financement de la Banque soit déployé au-delà des pays susmentionnés, jusqu'à 28 pays en Afrique, en fonction des besoins émergents. Le projet contribue au financement climatique, avec une enveloppe de 37,5 millions USD du montant total approuvé dédiée à l’atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The main development outcomes stem from: (i) contribution to food security by increasing agricultural production and enhancing logistical capacity to strengthen distribution mechanisms; (ii) contribution to food import substitution by processing and packaging agricultural products locally while increasing value addition of export-oriented products, which decrease the current account deficit in African countries (iii) job creation for men, youth and women throughout various agriculture commodity value-chains;(iv) fiscal contribution to RMCs through import/export duties, corporate tax, value-added tax; and (v) explicit support for women enterprises to enhance their business management skills and promote inclusive growth in the agriculture and food sectors where a large number of women can be employed.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les principaux résultats en matière de développement découlent de ce qui suit : (i) contribution à la sécurité alimentaire par l'augmentation de la production agricole et l'amélioration des capacités logistiques pour renforcer les mécanismes de distribution ; (ii) contribution à la substitution des importations alimentaires par la transformation et le conditionnement des produits agricoles localement tout en augmentant la valeur ajoutée des produits destinés à l'exportation, ce qui réduit le déficit de la balance courante des pays africains (iii) création d'emplois pour les hommes, les jeunes et les femmes tout au long des différentes chaînes de valeur des produits de base agricoles ; (iv) contribution fiscale aux PMR par le biais des droits d'importation/d'exportation, de l'impôt sur les sociétés et de la taxe sur la valeur ajoutée ; et (v) soutien explicite aux entreprises féminines afin d'améliorer leurs compétences en matière de gestion d'entreprise et de promouvoir une croissance inclusive dans les secteurs agricole et alimentaire, où un grand nombre de femmes peuvent être employées.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">Based on the sustainability KPIs and annual targets, it is expected that 600,000 supply chain farmers (1 million by 2032) would receive extension services by 2027, 25% will be women farmers by 2027 (50% by 2030).

It has secured both senior and subordinated loans, along with a 25-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with the Société Nationale d’électricité du Burkina Faso (SONABEL). However, the project encountered challenges in reaching financial close due to cost escalations resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.  The SEFA Covid-19 IPP Relief Programme (SEFA Programme) played a pivotal role in overcoming these hurdles. Through concessional financing, SEFA helped restructure the financial arrangements to absorb the pandemic-related cost increases, ensuring the project’s viability and preserving the originally agreed structure with the Government of Burkina Faso, thereby contributing tothe country’s energy security. This project primarily contributes to climate mitigation results. As such, 100% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Ce projet est l’un des premiers en matière de producteurs indépendants d’électricité (PIE) au Burkina Faso. Il a pu bénéficier de prêts de premier rang et de prêts subordonnés, ainsi que d’un accord d’achat d’électricité (AAE) d’une durée de 25 ans avec laSociété nationale d’électricité du Burkina Faso (SONABEL). L’escalade des coûts liés à la pandémie de COVID-19 a cependant entravé la clôture financière de ce projet. Le programme COVID-19 d’aide aux PIE établi par le SEFA (programme SEFA) a joué un rôle essentiel dans  la  résolution  de  ces difficultés. Grâce à un financement concessionnel, le SEFA a aidé à restructurer les dispositions financières pour absorber les augmentations de coûts liées à la pandémie ; cela a permis d’assurer la viabilité du projet et de préserver la structure initialement convenue avec le Gouvernement du Burkina Faso, contribuant ainsi à la sécurité énergétique du pays. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation au climat. Ainsi, 100 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 100 % dédiés à l'atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The  project  involves designing,  constructing,  and  operatingan  18  MWp  photovoltaic  (PV)  solar  power  plant located 250 km west of Ouagadougou in the city of Dédougou.

The objective is to support the advancement of a comprehensive Public Financial Management (PFM) Reform Strategy to digitize PFM within the government that has huge financial assets but no viable PFM system, with the aim to enhance the effectiveness, transparency, and accountability of public expenditure. As part of the PFM Reform Strategy, particular attention will be given to enhancing competition, efficiency, and transparency in public procurement, establishing the institutional framework for Public Private Partnerships (PPPs), together with reforming State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs), thereby providing greater opportunities for the private sector to engage in Libya’s development.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le but du projet est de renforcer et de moderniser les systèmes de gestion des finances publiques afin d'améliorer la gestion des dépenses publiques pour la fourniture de services publics de base et d'infrastructures essentielles, et de fournir ainsi un meilleur environnement commercial pour la croissance du secteur privé en Libye. L'objectif est de soutenir l'avancement d'une stratégie globale de réforme de la gestion des finances publiques (GFP) afin de numériser la GFP au sein du gouvernement qui dispose d'énormes actifs financiers mais d'aucun système de GFP viable, dans le but d'améliorer l'efficacité, la transparence et la responsabilité des dépenses publiques. Dans le cadre de la stratégie de réforme de la gestion des finances publiques, une attention particulière sera accordée à l'amélioration de la concurrence, de l'efficacité et de la transparence des marchés publics, à la mise en place du cadre institutionnel pour les partenariats public-privé (PPP), ainsi qu'à la réforme des entreprises publiques, afin d'offrir au secteur privé de plus grandes possibilités de s'engager dans le développement de la Libye.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The grant recipient and direct beneficiary is the Ministry of Finance (MOF) of Libya. The PFM reform program will however affect all parts of government; therefore, all ministries and departments will benefit. Ultimately the entire population of Libya will benefit from an improved PFM system and an enabling business environment, for instance a more effective and efficient procurement system will support the implementation of public infrastructure projects, which will be of benefit to the entire economy and society. Because the Project supports GOL to create PFM Reform Strategy which provides an institutional improvement, effects of the Project’s products would sustain longer period. Thus, while the project directly targets and benefits government, its effects will spill over to the entire economy in the middle to long run.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le bénéficiaire direct de la subvention est le ministère des Finances de la Libye. Le programme de réforme de la gestion des finances publiques affectera cependant toutes les parties du gouvernement ; tous les ministères et départements en bénéficieront donc. En fin de compte, l'ensemble de la population libyenne bénéficiera d'un système de GFP amélioré et d'un environnement commercial favorable. Par exemple, un système de passation de marchés plus efficace et efficient soutiendra la mise en œuvre de projets d'infrastructure publique, ce qui profitera à l'ensemble de l'économie et de la société. Étant donné que le projet aide le GOL à élaborer une stratégie de réforme de la gestion des finances publiques qui apporte une amélioration institutionnelle, les effets des produits du projet se feront sentir sur une plus longue période. Ainsi, bien que le projet vise et profite directement au gouvernement, ses effets se répercuteront sur l'ensemble de l'économie à moyen et long terme.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Ministry of finance</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-FAPA" type="40"><narrative>Fund for African Private Sector Assistance</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2024-09-06" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2024-11-18" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2027-06-30" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2027-12-31" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>ECGF1</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Mamoru ENDO</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Governance Officer, ECGF1</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>m.endo@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="LY"/><location><location-id vocabulary="A1" code="2210247"/><name><narrative>Tripoli</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="A1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="A1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>32.88743 13.18733</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLC"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="51010"><narrative>General budget support-related aid</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.8.13" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Transport -

CRP was initially established as a US$50  million blended  finance platform  anchored  in  a  US$20  million  SEFA  concessional  loan  to be  blended  and  co-invested with  US$30  million  in  commercial  funding  from  three  specialized  energy  access  lenders  (CRP  Partners)  selected  through  a competitive process: Triple Jump (managing the Energy Entrepreneurs Growth Fund), Lion’s Head Global Partners (managing the Facility for Energy Inclusion Off-Grid Energy Fund)and Social Investment Managers and Advisors (managing SIMA Fund IandSIMA  Angaza  Distributor  Finance  Fund).  Despite  resilience  of  the  sector,  energy  access  companies  continue  to face operational  disruptions,  business  uncertainty  and  liquidity  constrains  as  a  result  of  the  extended  impacts  of  the  COVID-19 pandemic and war in Ukraine. In this context, AfDB approved a US$20 million top-up of the platform -CRP phase II –to continue the original programme and facilitate the provision of affordable debt products to EA companies. This project primarily contributes to climate mitigation results. As such, 100% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La plateforme de redressement hors réseau COVID-19 (CRP) est une initiative historique de la Banque approuvée en décembre 2020 pour fournir un capital de secours et de redressement aux entreprises d'accès à l'énergie (AE), afin d'atténuer les impacts négatifs de la pandémie COVID-19 tout en faisant progresser l'accès à l'électricité propre et en favorisant un secteur plus viable et plus robuste après la crise. Le CRP a été initialement établi comme une plateforme de financement mixte de 50 millions de dollars US, ancrée dans un prêt concessionnel SEFA de 20 millions de dollars US qui sera mélangé et co-investi avec 30 millions de dollars US de financement commercial provenant de trois prêteurs spécialisés dans l'accès à l'énergie (partenaires du CRP) sélectionnés par un processus compétitif : Triple Jump (qui gère l'Energy Entrepreneurs Growth Fund), Lion's Head Global Partners (qui gère le Facility for Energy Inclusion Off-Grid Energy Fund) et Social Investment Managers and Advisors (qui gère SIMA Fund IetSIMA Angaza Distributor Finance Fund).  Malgré la résilience du secteur, les entreprises d'accès à l'énergie continuent de faire face à des perturbations opérationnelles, à des incertitudes commerciales et à des contraintes de liquidité en raison des impacts prolongés de la pandémie COVID-19 et de la guerre en Ukraine. Dans ce contexte, la BAD a approuvé un complément de 20 millions de dollars US de la plateforme -CRP phase II- pour poursuivre le programme original et faciliter la fourniture de produits de dette abordables aux entreprises d'EA. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation au climat. Ainsi, 100 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 100 % dédiés à l'atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">CRP phase II will support ca 20 additional transactions and leverage ca US$ 30 million from Partner Funds as well as US$110 million in additional co-financing expected during the 6-year implementation period.

The country has been able to capitalize on these resources thanks to Société Nationale Industrielle et Minière (SNIM), an independent state-owned iron ore mining company. Operating for over 61 years, SNIM has gone from strength to strength, becoming the continent's second-largest iron ore producer. The company makes a significant contribution to the Mauritanian economy, generating around 9% of GDP, 14% of government revenue and 37% of the value of exports in 2023. It directly employs around 6,750 people, almost all of whom were recruited from school and trained by SNIM, and indirectly employs almost 4,100 people, testifying to its considerable social impact in the region. A partner of the Bank since 1978, SNIM has benefited from seven financings, the most recent in 2017.Over the next few years, SNIM will develop projects that will enable it to double its iron ore production capacity by 2030 and capture a greater share of the value chain ,starting with the production of iron ore pellets, a product whose demand is growing as the steel industry moves towards cleaner processes. This increase in production requires an increase in the company's logistics capacity. The project primely contributes towards climate mitigation result. As such 100% of the total approval is attributed as climate finance, out of which 100% is mitigation finance.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La Mauritanie regorge de ressources minérales, dont des réserves de minerai de fer relativement facile à exploiter et de bonne qualité estimées à 10 milliards de tonnes. Le pays a pu tirer parti de ces ressources grâce à la Société Nationale Industrielle et Minière (SNIM), société publique indépendante d’exploitation du minerai de fer. Opérationnelle depuis plus de 61 ans, la SNIM n’a eu de cesse de se développer, pour devenir le deuxième producteur de minerai de fer du continent. La société contribue de manière significative à l’économie mauritanienne, générant environ 9 % du PIB, 14 % des recettes publiques et 37 % de la valeur des exportations en 2023. Elle emploie directement environ 6 750 personnes, dont la quasi-totalité ont été recrutées à la sortie de l’école et formées par la SNIM, et emploie indirectement près de 4 100 personnes, ce qui témoigne de son impact social considérable dans la région. Partenaire de la Banque depuis 1978, la SNIM a bénéficié de sept financements dont le plus récent date de 2017.Au cours des prochaines années, la SNIM développera des projets qui lui permettront de doubler sa capacité de production de minerai de fer d’ici 2030 et capter une plus grande partie de la chaîne de valeur ,en commençant par la production de pellets de minerai de fer, produit dont la demande augmente à mesure que la sidérurgie s’oriente vers des processus plus propres. Cette hausse de la production requiert une augmentation de la capacité logistique de la société. Le projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation du changement climatique. Ainsi, 100 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 100 % dédiés à l'atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project aims to double the railroad's nominal capacity, through: i) the acquisition of additional rolling stock, ii) the construction of maintenance facilities and the acquisition of related equipment, iii) the construction of additional sidings and iv) the construction of additional tracks, including station tracks, connections to maintenance sites and production sites. In addition, the project includes the installation of a photovoltaic solar power plant. The project also includes the installation of a 12 MW photovoltaic solar power plant. Finally, the Bank will provide SNIM with technical assistance for climate change risk assessment (CCRA), to help it prepare for the impact of climate change.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet vise à doubler la capacité nominale du chemin de fer, grâce à :i) l’acquisition de matériel roulant  supplémentaire,  ii)  la  construction  d’installations  de  maintenance  et  l’acquisition d’équipements  connexes,  iii)  la  construction  des voies  d’évitement  supplémentaires  et iv)  la construction de voies supplémentaires, y compris des voies de gares, des connexions aux sites de maintenance et aux sites de production. En outre, le projet prévoit la mise en place d’une centrale solaire photovoltaïque de 12 MW. Enfin, la Banque fournira à la SNIM une assistance technique pour l’évaluation des risques liés au changement climatique (CCRA), afin de l’aider à se préparer à l’impact du changement climatique.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">Government benefits. The project is expected to generate additional revenue, mainly in dividends for the Mauritanian government. Indeed, this logistical expansion capacity project will increase the volume of transported iron ore by SNIM through the additional iron  ore  produced  by  SNIM,  directly  and  indirectly  via  partnerships  with  other companies. This  is  expected  to  impact  its  profits  first  and  then  its  dividends. The incremental government revenues because of the project are estimated to be significant over the project life time. Household benefits. The project is expected to create jobs during both the construction and  the  operation  and  maintenance  phases.  It  is  expected  to  generate  5  full-time equivalent  (FTE)  jobs  during  the  construction  phase  and  300  FTE  jobs  during  the operation phases of the constructed maintenance facility, which correspond to a total of 305 FTE jobs to be created over the assessment period, 10% of these jobs will be for woman. Private sector development. The Project will allow SNIM to increase the efficiency of its logistics operations via economies of scale and efficiency gains, through the addition of larger wagons and newer locomotives, resulting in an approximate 10% fuel efficiency gain. It is expected that the Project will improve the competitiveness of SNIM further cementing its position as investors can tap into Mauritania’s mining sector, especially with proper risk management and sustainable approaches</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Avantages pour l’État:  Il  est attendu  que  le  projet  génère  des  recettes  additionnelles  pour  le gouvernement mauritanien, essentiellement à travers les dividendes. En effet, ce projet d’extension de capacité logistique augmentera les volumes de minerais de fer transportés par la SNIM, qui est produits par la SNIM elle-même et en partenariat avec deux autres sociétés. Ceci impactera d’abord les bénéfices et ensuite les dividendes. Les recettes gouvernementales additionnelles résultants du projet seront importantes prochaines années. Avantages pour les ménages: La SNIM exerce un impact considérable sur les ménages dans les régions où elle opère. Le projet créera environ 300 emplois directs qualifiés dans le domaine de la maintenance et de l’exploitation du chemin de fer et du matériel roulant, dont 8 % pour les femmes. Pendant la construction, un nombre important d’emplois temporaires devrait être créé. Développement du secteur privé: Le projet accroîtra l’efficacité des opérations logistiques de la SNIM grâce aux économies d’échelle et aux gains d’efficacité engendrés par des wagons plus grands et des locomotives plus récentes, ce qui entraînera un gain d’efficacité énergétique d’environ 10 %. Le projet devrait améliorer la compétitivité de la SNIM et consolider sa position d’investisseur dans le  secteur  minier  mauritanien,  notamment  grâce  à  une gestion  appropriée  des  risques  et  à  des approches durables.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="MR-COA-81" type="10"><narrative>SNIM -

This includes testing this pilot project and building the case for its replication.Specific objectives: "Fill an SME financing existing gap and support the long-term development and management of adequate financial services by local financial institutions."Lower the collateral requirement and enhance access of Growth Oriented Women SMEs to financial services;"Enhance the management and technical capacity of GOWEs in order to support the growth of their businesses;"Strengthen the capacity of BDS Providers to provide relevant and adequate business services; and "Enhance the capacity of associations of women entrepreneurs to strengthen their advocacy role and to provide adequate support services, mentoring and leadership development for their members.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Cette proposition vise à mettre en œuvre un programme intégré pour le développement de l'entrepreneuriat féminin au Kenya, avec les principaux objectifs suivants : « Renforcer l'autonomisation économique des femmes entrepreneurs et aider les chefs de PME prospères à développer leurs entreprises ; « Contribuer à un environnement commercial plus équitable pour les femmes entrepreneurs, renforçant ainsi leur contribution au développement économique. Il s'agit notamment de tester ce projet pilote et d'élaborer des arguments en faveur de sa reproduction.Objectifs spécifiques : « Combler une lacune existante en matière de financement des PME et soutenir le développement et la gestion à long terme de services financiers adéquats par les institutions financières locales ; réduire les exigences en matière de garanties et améliorer l'accès des PME féminines axées sur la croissance aux services financiers ; améliorer la gestion et la capacité technique des GOWE afin de soutenir la croissance de leurs entreprises ; renforcer la capacité des fournisseurs de BDS à fournir des services commerciaux pertinents et adéquats ; et améliorer la capacité des associations de femmes entrepreneurs à renforcer leur rôle de défense et à fournir des services de soutien adéquats, un mentorat et un développement du leadership pour leurs membres.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The proposed project combines two inter-linked components: a partial guarantee and a technical assistance facility. The partial guarantee facility will be extended to selected local banks, thus providing them more comfort in extending loans to the target population that lacks collateral. It will therefore contribute to a better understanding of the credit risks related to women entrepreneurs. Loans provided by selected banks to eligible women entrepreneurs will be guaranteed up to 50% by the Bank facility, excluding interest. The technical assistance facility (TAF) will consist of partially financing three major elements: (i) training of project clients aiming at supporting their growth; (ii) mentoring of project clients in order to ensure a better management of their businesses; and (iii) capacity building of financial institutions, BDS providers and Women Entrepreneurs' Associations. The TAF objective is twofold: (i) to strengthen the business profile of targeted women entrepreneurs, enhance their access to markets and strengthen their associative capacity; and (ii) to improve the capacity of financial and non financial partners in the program, in order for them to provide adequate financial and business services. These two project components are complementary and reinforce each other. Loans that are partially guaranteed would record a higher than normal default rate without the training and mentoring; and the training and mentoring would not be so useful without the partial guarantee, since the target women would not be able to invest and apply their newly acquired skills to grow their businesses.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet proposé comporte deux volets interdépendants : une garantie partielle et un mécanisme d'assistance technique. Le mécanisme de garantie partielle sera étendu à des banques locales sélectionnées, ce qui leur permettra d'accorder plus facilement des prêts à la population cible qui manque de garanties. Il contribuera donc à une meilleure compréhension des risques de crédit liés aux femmes entrepreneurs. Les prêts accordés par les banques sélectionnées aux femmes entrepreneurs éligibles seront garantis à hauteur de 50 % par le mécanisme de la Banque, hors intérêts. Le mécanisme d'assistance technique (TAF) consistera en un financement partiel de trois éléments principaux : (i) la formation des clients du projet visant à soutenir leur croissance ; (ii) le mentorat des clients du projet afin d'assurer une meilleure gestion de leurs entreprises ; et (iii) le renforcement des capacités des institutions financières, des fournisseurs de BDS et des associations de femmes entrepreneurs. L'objectif du TAF est double : (i) renforcer le profil commercial des femmes entrepreneurs ciblées, améliorer leur accès aux marchés et renforcer leur capacité associative ; et (ii) améliorer la capacité des partenaires financiers et non financiers du programme, afin qu'ils puissent fournir des services financiers et commerciaux adéquats. Ces deux composantes du projet sont complémentaires et se renforcent mutuellement. Les prêts partiellement garantis enregistreraient un taux de défaillance supérieur à la normale sans la formation et le mentorat ; et la formation et le mentorat ne seraient pas aussi utiles sans la garantie partielle, puisque les femmes ciblées ne seraient pas en mesure d'investir et d'appliquer leurs compétences nouvellement acquises pour développer leurs entreprises.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">Through the partial guarantee line, the Bank will be able to fill an existing gap and help finance GOWE in Kenya through well-established private banks, thereby increasing the access to finance for at least 400 women entrepreneurs. The economic benefits of the project will include: (i) Women entrepreneurship development; (ii) Employment creation; and, (iii) technical and financial strengthening of businesswomen associations, BDS providers and the participating banks. It is estimated that 500 new jobs will be generated by the project. In addition, although the guaranty scheme would be discontinued at the end of the project, it is expected that FIs will continue to work with the BDS providers through cross-referrals, mentoring and follow-up, as this would be in their long-term interest. This proposal is in line with the Bank's private sector development strategy, its Gender Plan of Action as well as its strategy of intervention in Kenya. It is also consistent with the Bank's Policies for Guarantees approved by the Board in March 2004 (ADB/BD/WP/2003/85/ Approval, 05 March 2004), as well as the Bank's policies on development of the financial sector (ADF/BD/WP/2002/55/Rev.2, July 2003), which recommend introduction of instruments that encourage a gender-awareness approach in projects involving the provision of financial services.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Grâce à la ligne de garantie partielle, la Banque sera en mesure de combler une lacune existante et d'aider à financer le GOWE au Kenya par l'intermédiaire de banques privées bien établies, améliorant ainsi l'accès au financement d'au moins 400 femmes chefs d'entreprise. Les avantages économiques du projet sont les suivants (i) le développement de l'entreprenariat féminin ; (ii) la création d'emplois ; et (iii) le renforcement technique et financier des associations de femmes d'affaires, des fournisseurs de BDS et des banques participantes. On estime que 500 nouveaux emplois seront créés par le projet. En outre, bien que le système de garantie soit supprimé à la fin du projet, on s'attend à ce que les IF continuent à travailler avec les fournisseurs de BDS par le biais de références croisées, de mentorat et de suivi, car cela serait dans leur intérêt à long terme. Cette proposition est conforme à la stratégie de développement du secteur privé de la Banque, à son plan d'action en matière de genre et à sa stratégie d'intervention au Kenya. Elle est également conforme aux politiques de la Banque en matière de garanties approuvées par le Conseil d'administration en mars 2004 (ADB/BD/WP/2003/85/ Approbation, 5 mars 2004), ainsi qu'aux politiques de la Banque en matière de développement du secteur financier (ADF/BD/WP/2002/55/Rev.2, juillet 2003), qui recommandent l'introduction d'instruments encourageant la prise en compte de la dimension de genre dans les projets impliquant la fourniture de services financiers.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="KE-COA-107" type="10"><narrative>Ministry of finance</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2005-10-19" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2006-11-28" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2014-11-28" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2014-11-28" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>RDGS</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Rafael Jose JABBA</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer , RDGS</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>r.jabba@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="KE"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="184742"/><name><narrative>Nairobi</narrative></name><administrative code="51328" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="51360" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-1.28333 36.83333</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="24030"><narrative>Formal sector financial intermediaries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.12.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Microfinance and financial services - Microfinance and financial services</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2006-11-28"/><period-end iso-date="2007-02-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2006-11-28">1900649.262500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2007-02-28"/><period-end iso-date="2007-05-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2007-02-28">1900649.262500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2007-05-28"/><period-end iso-date="2007-08-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2007-05-28">1900649.262500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2007-08-28"/><period-end iso-date="2007-11-28"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2007-08-28">1900649.262500</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000140000202"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2006-11-28"/><value value-date="2006-11-28">7602597.05</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref="KE-COA-107"><narrative>Muti Partners Financial Insti</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="912"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-KE-HAZ-001" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

This will address critical demand for TF in Africa by providing support to SMEs in vital economic sectors such as agriculture and light manufacturing.

Cela contribuera à répondre à la demande pressante du marché en financement du commerce en Afrique en fournissant un appui aux PME dans des secteurs économiques vitaux tels que l’agriculture et l’industrie manufacturière légère. La BAD devrait fournir 100 millions USD sous forme de garanties pour couvrir le risque de remboursement des banques émettrices (BE) pré-approuvées en Afrique.

Derisking (International banks reducing their credit support to local banks in developing markets or exiting the market in some countries perceived as high risk jurisdictions)) has exacerbated this already dire situation especially for Africa’s SMEs. AfDB’s additionality, therefore, lies in the use of its “AAA” credit rating to provide greater comfort and allow SMBCE to increase its risk-taking appetite on African Banks and provide them increased trade finance facilities for the benefit of SMEs and local corporates. When fully utilized, the Program will support 45 Issuing local Banks operating in 17 African countries and is forecasted to catalyze roughly close to USD 1.6 billion worth of trade transactions over a 3-year period.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Ce partenariat intervient à un moment où la plupart des banques d'émission africaines sont confrontées à des contraintes liées à une base de capital relativement faible en raison de leur taille, et à des défis pour obtenir des facilités de financement du commerce adéquates de la part des banques internationales de confirmation afin de soutenir les PME africaines et les entreprises locales impliquées dans le commerce international. Le dérisquage (les banques internationales réduisent leur soutien au crédit des banques locales sur les marchés en développement ou se retirent du marché dans certains pays perçus comme des juridictions à haut risque) a exacerbé cette situation déjà désastreuse, en particulier pour les PME africaines. L'additionnalité de la BAD réside donc dans l'utilisation de sa notation de crédit « AAA » pour fournir un plus grand confort et permettre à la SMBCE d'augmenter son appétit pour la prise de risque sur les banques africaines et de leur fournir des facilités accrues de financement du commerce au profit des PME et des entreprises locales. Lorsqu'il sera pleinement utilisé, le programme soutiendra 45 banques locales émettrices opérant dans 17 pays africains et devrait catalyser des transactions commerciales d'une valeur de près de 1,6 milliard d'USD sur une période de trois ans.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Ministère des finances</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2015-11-18" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2016-05-26" type="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2018-05-24" type="3"/><activity-date iso-date="2019-05-26" type="4"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PIFD3</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Lamin Majula DRAMMEH</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Division Manager, PIFD3</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>l.drammeh@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="6255146"/><name><narrative>Africa</narrative></name><administrative code="864" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="12885" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>7.1881 21.09375</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="4"/><feature-designation code="RGN"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="24030"><narrative>Formal sector financial intermediaries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.12.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Microfinance and financial services - Microfinance and financial services</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2016-05-26"/><period-end iso-date="2016-08-26"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2016-05-26">19006492.617500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2016-08-26"/><period-end iso-date="2016-11-26"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2016-08-26">19006492.617500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2016-11-26"/><period-end iso-date="2017-02-26"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2016-11-26">19006492.617500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2017-02-26"/><period-end iso-date="2017-05-26"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2017-02-26">19006492.617500</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000140000551"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2016-05-26"/><value value-date="2016-05-26">76025970.47</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation Europe Limited (“smbce”)</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="912"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-Z1-HAB-044" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

Le Fonds Innovation ciblera de façon opportune l'Afrique du Nord (11 %), l'Afrique australe (9 %) et l'Afrique de l'Est (6 %). Comme il s'agit de l'un des premiers fonds de capital-risque en Afrique, des pays prioritaires ont été identifiés où l'écosystème du capital-risque est suffisamment développé et où les possibilités de développement sont suffisantes, mais où les entreprises axées sur la technologie sont encore confrontées à d'importantes contraintes de financement. Les entreprises accompagnées seront aidées à se développer et à s'étendre dans leurs propres pays, dans les pays voisins et dans d'autres régions. Le fond accompagne les startups à fort potentiel technologique qui ont le potentiel de proposer des solutions pour lutter contre les impacts coronavirus (24% des startups de la réserve de projet sont dans le secteur Tech lié à la santé).

The wind farm will be located along the Gulf of Suez, an area that exhibits some of the best wind resources in the country. Due to the large size of the Project and land availability, the wind farm will be split over two locations in west of Ras Ghareb &amp; south of Ras Shukeir, about 60 km apart, with 550 MW of wind capacity to be installed in each location. The generated power off-taker, under a  25-year  take-or-pay  PPA,  will  be  the  Egyptian  Electricity  Transmission Company (EETC), which will also be responsible for funding and construction of the transmission lines that will connect the two project plots to the national grid. Once constructed, the Project will boost the deployment of renewable energy in Egypt as the largest wind IPP in the country.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet consiste en la conception, la construction, l’exploitation et la maintenance d’un parc éolien greenfield de 1,1 GW et de sa sous-station associée de transformation moyenne/haute tension en Égypte, développé par ACWA Power et ses partenaires. Le parc éolien sera situé le long du golfe de Suez, une zone qui présente certaines des meilleures ressources éoliennes du pays. En raison de la taille importante du projet et de la disponibilité des terrains, le parc éolien sera réparti sur deux sites : à l’ouest de Ras Ghareb et au sud de Ras Shukeir, séparés d’environ 60 km, avec 550 MW de capacité éolienne installée sur chaque site. L’acheteur de l’électricité produite, dans le cadre d’un contrat d’achat d’électricité (PPA) de 25 ans take-or-pay, sera la Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company (EETC), qui sera également responsable du financement et de la construction des lignes de transmission reliant les deux sites du projet au réseau national. Une fois construit, ce projet renforcera le déploiement des énergies renouvelables en Égypte, en devenant le plus grand producteur indépendant d’électricité (IPP) éolienne du pays.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project will contribute 1.1 GW of clean power to the grid, thereby increasing the share of renewables in the generation mix and reducing the current heavy dependence on fossil fuels for power generation. This will give the government of Egyptthe opportunity to reduce the foreign currency bill for natural gas imports and further avail more of the domestic gas for local industries. Through the displacement of costly pollution resulting in significant reduction of CO2 emissions avoided annually,the Project isin line with the updated NDC of Egypt which aims at reducing greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions from the electricity sector by 80.5 million tCO2 by 2030.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet apportera 1,1 GW d’énergie propre au réseau, augmentant ainsi la part des énergies renouvelables dans le mix de production et réduisant la forte dépendance actuelle aux combustibles fossiles pour la production d’électricité. Cela offrira au gouvernement égyptien l’opportunité de réduire la facture en devises étrangères liée aux importations de gaz naturel et de réserver davantage de gaz domestique pour les industries locales. En remplaçant une production coûteuse et polluante, ce projet permettra une réduction significative des émissions de CO? évitées chaque année, s’inscrivant dans le cadre de la Contribution Déterminée au niveau National (CDN) mise à jour de l’Égypte, qui vise à réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre du secteur électrique de 80,5 millions de tCO? d’ici 2030.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project will be critical for contributing to meeting the expected large demand for green energy for the national water desalination program and for green hydrogen and adds potential for Egypt to export green energy to other markets, including Europe.

Specifically, the TYS (2023-2032) seeks to catalyse improvements in cross-border infrastructure connections, improved border management and trade facilitation solutions that will make trade across national borders faster and less costly. Hence the Bank seeks to address the lack of in-depth analysis, regulatory framework guidelines, expertise on Dry Ports and Multi Modal Transport Corridors in Africa. The proposed approach to implement this project builds on successful completion of ongoing similar initiatives to enhance identification of investment opportunities in seaports (and/or maritime transport) and transport regulatory frameworks in African countries. This technical assistance will complement seaport diagnostic studies completed by the Bank and address gaps in supporting the private sector in providing reliable and competitive inland logistics infrastructure through Dry Ports. The Project also compliments the Bank’s ongoing support to the development of Regional Railway Infrastructure Masterplan for Southern Africa. The project contributes to climate finance, with 1 million USD of the total approved amount dedicated to adaptation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La Banque africaine de développement s’engage à renforcer son empreinte encore naissante dans le secteur des transports et de la logistique commerciale, dans le cadre de la Stratégie décennale (TYS) en cours d’élaboration. Plus précisément, la TYS (2023-2032) vise à catalyser des améliorations des connexions d’infrastructures transfrontalières, de la gestion des frontières et des solutions de facilitation des échanges, afin de rendre le commerce transfrontalier plus rapide et moins coûteux. Ainsi, la Banque cherche à remédier au manque d’analyses approfondies, de lignes directrices pour les cadres réglementaires et d’expertise sur les ports secs et les corridors de transport multimodal en Afrique. L’approche proposée pour la mise en œuvre de ce projet s’appuie sur la réussite d’initiatives similaires en cours, afin de renforcer l’identification des opportunités d’investissement dans les ports maritimes (et/ou le transport maritime) ainsi que dans les cadres réglementaires de transport dans les pays africains. Cette assistance technique viendra compléter les études de diagnostic portuaire menées par la Banque et combler les lacunes dans l’appui au secteur privé pour la mise en place d’infrastructures logistiques intérieures fiables et compétitives à travers les ports secs. Le projet vient également en complément de l’appui continu de la Banque au développement du Plan directeur des infrastructures ferroviaires régionales pour l’Afrique australe.

This goal will be articulated and achieved through the development of guidelines for Dry Ports operations in Africa, analytical and conceptual frameworks development for unlocking the continents’ potential of multi modal transport corridors and supported by complimentary capacity building initiatives. These frameworks for multimodal transport corridors and guidelines are key as these will guide both policymakers and the private sector in conceptualizing, developing, financing, operationalizing Dry Ports and strengthening multi modal transport corridors. Furthermore, this complements seaport diagnostic studies completed by the Bank and addresses gaps in supporting the private sector in providing reliable and competitive inland logistics infrastructure through Dry Ports. The development objective of the Project is therefore to address the constraints that hinder the conceptualizing, financing, and development of Dry Ports in Africa.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif principal de ce projet d’assistance technique (AT) est de faciliter l’augmentation des investissements et le développement des ports secs en Afrique, afin de soutenir et d’assurer un accès fluide aux services maritimes internationaux et régionaux. Pour que le commerce africain circule plus efficacement, il est essentiel que les ports africains soient facilement accessibles au transport maritime international et régional. Cet objectif sera atteint à travers la mise en place de lignes directrices pour l’exploitation des ports secs en Afrique, l’élaboration de cadres analytiques et conceptuels visant à libérer le potentiel du continent en matière de corridors de transport multimodal, ainsi que par des initiatives complémentaires de renforcement des capacités. Ces cadres et lignes directrices sont essentiels, car ils serviront de référence tant pour les décideurs politiques que pour le secteur privé dans la conception, le développement, le financement et l’opérationnalisation des ports secs, tout en renforçant les corridors de transport multimodal. En outre, cette initiative complète les études de diagnostic des ports maritimes déjà réalisées par la Banque et comble les lacunes en matière de soutien au secteur privé pour la mise en place d’infrastructures logistiques intérieures fiables et compétitives à travers les ports secs. L’objectif de développement du projet est donc de lever les contraintes qui freinent actuellement la conception, le financement et le développement des ports secs en Afrique.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The primary beneficiaries of the Project will be Africa’s 16 landlocked countries and 38 coastal and island states, this will also have indirect/secondary beneficiaries on the following (i) Business communities (East African Business Council, Burkina Faso Chamber of Commerce and Industry) that have identified the need for development of modern highly developed inland logistics cargo facilities (ii) African Governments that identified potential inland Dry Ports and logistics facilities that require enhanced capacity to oversee development of Dry Ports as inland logistics facilities to increase the capacity of their seaports (as applicable) (iii) African economies through increased trade, investment, GDP boosted by a growing inland logistics transport sector, primarily in the 16 landlocked countries that are members of diverse Regional Corridor Management Institutions (CMI’s) tasked with the responsibility of amongst others fast tracking regional economic corridor development.

The Project includes the construction of new substations and 14 kms (Lamadji 4 kms and Gassi 10 kms) of interconnection infrastructure, transferred to the national utility, Société Nationale d’Electricité (“SNE”), on project completion, and a 6 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) to support integration of intermittent generation to the grid. The Project is an important milestone in the Desert to Power (“DtP”) Roadmap and will build on the contractual structure and on Technical Assistance to SNE for the integration of Variable Renewable Energy (“VRE”)with the support of Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa (“SEFA”). The Bank’s involvement is expected through (i) an AfDB senior loan of up to EUR 13.5 million (ii) mobilization of a reimbursable grant to offset increased costs linked to the BESS component and (iv) provision of a PRG instrument with a face value of up to EUR 8 million (UA 6.58 million) backstopping a standby L/C which covers SNE payments following a request received from the Government of Chad (“GoC”). 50% would be covered by Green Climate Fund under DTP, and 50% covered by ADF, requiring an allocation of UA 0.82 million under ADF16. This project primarily contributes to climate mitigation results. As such, 100% of the total approved amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet comprend la conception, la construction et l'exploitation de deux centrales solaires photovoltaïques de 15 MWc chacune, situées à proximité des postes électriques de Lamadji et de Gassi, d'une capacité totale de 30 MWc, raccordées à la boucle de 90 kV autour de N'Djamena. Le projet comprend la construction de nouvelles sous-stations et de 14 km (4 km pour Lamadji et 10 km pour Gassi) d'infrastructures d'interconnexion, transférées à la Société Nationale d'Electricité (« SNE ») à la fin du projet, ainsi qu'un système de stockage d'énergie par batterie (BESS) de 6 MWh pour soutenir l'intégration de la production intermittente au réseau. Le projet constitue une étape importante de la feuille de route « Desert to Power » (DtP) et s'appuiera sur la structure contractuelle et l'assistance technique fournies à la SNE pour l'intégration des énergies renouvelables variables (ERV), avec le soutien du Fonds pour l'énergie durable en Afrique (SEFA). La participation de la Banque devrait prendre la forme (i) d'un prêt de premier rang de la BAD d'un montant maximum de 13,5 millions d'euros, (ii) de la mobilisation d'une subvention remboursable pour compenser l'augmentation des coûts liés à la composante BESS et (iii) de la mise à disposition d'un instrument PRG d'une valeur nominale maximale de 8 millions d'euros (6,58 millions d'UC). 5 millions d'euros (ii) la mobilisation d'une subvention remboursable pour compenser l'augmentation des coûts liés à la composante BESS et (iv) la mise à disposition d'un instrument PRG d'une valeur nominale pouvant atteindre 8 millions d'euros (6,58 millions d'UC) soutenant une lettre de crédit stand-by qui couvre les paiements de la SNE à la suite d'une demande reçue du gouvernement du Tchad. 50 % seraient couverts par le Fonds vert pour le climat dans le cadre du DTP, et 50 % par le FAD, ce qui nécessiterait une allocation de 0,82 million d'UC au titre du FAD16. Ce projet contribue principalement aux résultats en matière d'atténuation au climat. Ainsi, 100 % du montant total approuvé est attribué au financement climatique, dont 100 % dédiés à l'atténuation.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project will replicate the contractual structure of the Djermaya project. It will displace 61 GWh of high cost HFO/diesel generation thereby reducing government subsidies to the national utility.

The  partnership  will  comprise  three components, namely: (i) a EUR 10 million subordinated loan to increase BBGCI's tier 2 capital; (ii) a EUR 10 million trade finance transaction guarantee (TFTG) to meet the import and export needs of Ivorian SMEs and businesses and (iii) a EUR 10 million portfolio guarantee to women-owned enterprises (based on We-fi criteria). The portfolio guarantee will help to cover up to 50% of losses on the portfolio of loans granted to women-owned or women-led SMEs.To further strengthen the capacity of portfolio SMEs, BBGCI will also receive technical assistance worth EUR 0.3 million from the AFAWA's Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative (We-Fi)programme. This technical assistance package will enable BBGCI to: (i)manage reports on development resultsand(ii) strengthen the capacities of its female clientele as well as the capacities of BBG CI's investment teams in financing women-owned SMEs. The financing facility will target SMEs operating in priority sectors of the Ivorian economy, especially social service  (education,  health,  transport,  communications  and  real  estate)  and  local  industrial processing sectors. Specifically, 50% of the financing will be earmarked for women-owned VSEs and SMEs.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Ce projet consiste en un mécanisme de financement d'un montant total de 30 millions d'euros destiné à aider Bridge Bank Côte d'Ivoire (« Bridge Bank » ou « BBGCI ») à mettre en œuvre sa stratégie visant à élargir son portefeuille de PME et ses activités de financement du commerce international en Côte d'Ivoire. Le partenariat comprendra trois volets, à savoir : (i) un prêt subordonné de 10 millions d'euros destiné à renforcer les fonds propres de catégorie 2 de BBGCI ; (ii) une garantie de transaction commerciale (TFTG) de 10 millions d'euros pour répondre aux besoins d'importation et d'exportation des PME et des entreprises ivoiriennes ; et (iii) une garantie de portefeuille de 10 millions d'euros en faveur des entreprises détenues par des femmes (sur la base des critères We-fi). La garantie de portefeuille permettra de couvrir jusqu'à 50 % des pertes sur le portefeuille de prêts accordés aux PME détenues ou dirigées par des femmes. Afin de renforcer davantage les capacités des PME du portefeuille, la BBGCI bénéficiera également d'une assistance technique d'un montant de 0,3 million d'euros au titre du programme « Women Entrepreneurs Finance Initiative » (We-Fi) de l'AFAWA. Ce programme d'assistance technique permettra à la BBGCI : (i) de gérer les rapports sur les résultats en matière de développement et (ii) de renforcer les capacités de sa clientèle féminine ainsi que celles des équipes d'investissement de la BBGCI dans le domaine du financement des PME détenues par des femmes. Le mécanisme de financement ciblera les PME opérant dans les secteurs prioritaires de l'économie ivoirienne, en particulier les services sociaux (éducation, santé, transports, communications et immobilier) et les secteurs de la transformation industrielle locale. Plus précisément, 50 % du financement sera réservé aux microentreprises et aux PME détenues par des femmes.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The facility, especially the subordinated loan component, will enable Bridge Bank to implement its expansion strategy. In addition, the provision of trade finance services remains below 25% of demand and is relatively costly. The guarantee backed by the Bank's AAA credit rating will facilitate  the  confirmation  of  trade  transactions  initiated  by  the  Bridge  Bank. The  Bank's involvement would complement that of the IFC and other efforts by Bridge Bank to mobilize resources from Triodos and Oikocredit.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Cette facilité, en particulier la composante de prêt subordonné, permettra à Bridge Bank de mettre en œuvre sa stratégie d'expansion.

The Project will be the second solar PV power plant in Togo after the publicly financed Blitta solar project inaugurated in June 2021 (70MWp): it is thus the first privately financed IPP.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet comprend la conception, le financement, la construction, l'exploitation et le transfert d'une centrale solaire entièrement nouvelle à Sokodé, la deuxième plus grande ville du Togo. Le projet comprend une centrale solaire photovoltaïque d'une puissance installée de 61,85 MWc (42 MWca) et une ligne de transport de 11 km qui seront développées dans le cadre d'un contrat BOOT (Build Own Operate Transfer) d'une durée de 25 ans avec la Compagnie Électrique du Togo (CEET). Le projet contribuera à la stratégie du gouvernement visant à augmenter la part des énergies renouvelables dans le mix énergétique, qui est composé à 80 % d'énergies non renouvelables et thermiques. La clôture financière (FC) devrait avoir lieu au deuxième trimestre 2025. Ce projet sera la deuxième centrale solaire photovoltaïque au Togo après le projet solaire de Blitta, financé par des fonds publics et inauguré en juin 2021 (70 MWc) : il s'agit donc du premier projet IPP financé par des fonds privés.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project will add 42MWac clean energy to displace some of the more expensive fossil energy (natural gas, diesel and HFO) which currently accounts for 80% of total electricity generation; (ii) infrastructure development: the project will develop 42MWac of new solar generation; (iii) CO2 emissions reduction and low-carbon development: The project will green the energy mix of the Togo grid and reduce greenhouse gas emissions through increased share of renewable energy in the country’s generation capacity.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet permettra d'ajouter 42 MWac d'énergie propre afin de remplacer une partie de l'énergie fossile plus coûteuse (gaz naturel, diesel et HFO) qui représente actuellement 80 % de la production totale d'électricité ; (ii) développement des infrastructures : le projet permettra de développer 42 MWac de nouvelle production solaire ; (iii) réduction des émissions de CO2 et développement à faible intensité de carbone : le projet permettra de rendre plus écologique le mix énergétique du réseau togolais et de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre grâce à une part accrue des énergies renouvelables dans la capacité de production du pays.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project is expected to create 134 jobs during construction and 16 permanent jobs during operations, or 25 full time equivalent jobs, and provide access to 700,000 people.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet devrait créer 134 emplois pendant la construction et 16 emplois permanents pendant l'exploitation, soit 25 emplois équivalents temps plein, et permettre l'accès à l'électricité à 700 000 personnes.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-SEFA" type="40"><narrative>Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="TG-COA-840" type="10"><narrative>Sokodé Energie</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-04-30" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-07-18" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PESR2</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Matthieu Benoit JALARD</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, PESR2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>m.jalard@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="TG"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2363892"/><name><narrative>Préfecture de Tchaoudjo</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>9 1.16667</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM2"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="A1" code="2364265"/><name><narrative>Salimdé</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="A1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="A1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>8.98333 1.18333</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="A1" code="2364104"/><name><narrative>Sokode</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="A1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="A1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>8.98333 1.13333</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLA"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23111"><narrative>Energy sector policy, planning and administration</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

This will ensure that the GoSA can drive an inclusive energy transition that provides all South Africans with equal opportunity to work in emerging green energy sectors of the economy. The goal of the project is to support the Government of South Africa in the development of a demand-led skills ecosystem to support the “just” part of the JET in order to deliver Chapter 9 of the JET Implementation Plan on Skills development. The objective of the 3-year program is to create a skilling ecosystem designed to equip over 10,000 workers annually over the next 25 years with quality and relevant skills, allowing them to be absorbed by the country’s thriving private sector. This will be achieved through a multi-year program. JET SEP seeks to support the GoSA and private sector, to launch and scale training programs that successfully support the placement of trainees in employment. FAPA grant supports phase 1 of this program. The Project’s main components are the development of a JET Skills Needs Assessment, Development of Analytical Tools, Training and Capacity Building, Multi-stakeholder Consultations, Communication and Advocacy. The first phase of the project will be implemented over a period of 1 year between April 1 st, 2025- May 31st, 2026.&#13;
</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La subvention FAPA soutient un programme national mené par le secteur privé et conçu pour offrir des formations axées sur la demande et placer les travailleurs dans des emplois. Cela permettra au gouvernement sud-africain de mener une transition énergétique inclusive qui offre à tous les Sud-Africains des chances égales de travailler dans les secteurs émergents de l'économie liés à l'énergie verte. L'objectif du projet est d'aider le gouvernement sud-africain à développer un écosystème de compétences axé sur la demande afin de soutenir la partie « juste » du JET (Just Energy Transition, transition énergétique juste) afin de mettre en œuvre le chapitre 9 du plan de mise en œuvre du JET sur le développement des compétences. L'objectif de ce programme triennal est de créer un écosystème de compétences conçu pour doter plus de 10 000 travailleurs par an, au cours des 25 prochaines années, de compétences de qualité et pertinentes, leur permettant d'être absorbés par le secteur privé florissant du pays. Cet objectif sera atteint grâce à un programme pluriannuel. Le JET SEP vise à soutenir le gouvernement sud-africain et le secteur privé afin de lancer et de développer des programmes de formation qui favorisent avec succès l'insertion professionnelle des stagiaires. La subvention de la FAPA soutient la phase 1 de ce programme. Les principales composantes, résultats et indicateurs clés de performance du projet sont l'élaboration d'une évaluation des besoins en compétences JET, le développement d'outils analytiques, la formation et le renforcement des capacités, les consultations multipartites, la communication et le plaidoyer. La première phase du projet sera mise en œuvre sur une période d'un an, entre le 1er avril 2025 et le 31 mai 2026.&#13;

The expansion includes 13.5MW of wind generation in Santiago, a 6MW/6MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Santiago, and another 6MW/6MWh BESS in Sal. These systems will provide key ancillary services to the grid, such as frequency regulation, energy balancing, spinning reserve, and voltage support. Building on the success of Phase I, GoCV launched a competitive tender on 11 August 2023 to procure additional BESS: 8MW/8MWh in São Vicente and 6MW/6MWh in Boa Vista. Cabeólica won this tender on 27 November 2023. The company has since merged both initiatives—the Expansion Project and the New BESS Project—into a single Phase II Project. Together, Phase I and Phase II will deliver 39MW of wind power and 26MWh of battery storage capacity. To meet the commissioning deadline of December 2025, Cabeólica plans to begin construction under advance contracting, funded initially by a Bridge Loan (BL). The company has asked the Bank to retroactively finance costs incurred after 30 June 2024 using BL proceeds. These include engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) costs and development expenses, co-financed with EIB.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Gouvernement du Cabo Verde (GoCV) a signé un protocole d’accord (MoU) avec Cabeólica le 23 septembre 2022 pour l’extension du projet Cabeólica Phase I. Cette extension prévoit l’installation de 13,5 MW d’énergie éolienne à Santiago, ainsi qu’un système de stockage par batterie (BESS) de 6 MW/6 MWh à Santiago et un autre de 6 MW/6 MWh à Sal. Ces systèmes fourniront des services auxiliaires essentiels au réseau, tels que la régulation de fréquence, l’équilibrage énergétique, la réserve tournante et le soutien en tension. Fort du succès de la Phase I, le GoCV a lancé, le 11 août 2023, un appel d’offres pour l’acquisition de nouvelles capacités de stockage : 8 MW/8 MWh à São Vicente et 6 MW/6 MWh à Boa Vista. Cabeólica a remporté cet appel d’offres le 27 novembre 2023. L’entreprise a ensuite regroupé ces deux initiatives — le projet d’extension et le nouveau projet BESS — en un seul projet, désormais appelé Phase II. Ensemble, les phases I et II permettront de fournir 39 MW d’énergie éolienne et 26 MWh de capacité de stockage par batterie. Pour respecter l’échéance de mise en service fixée à décembre 2025, Cabeólica prévoit de lancer les travaux via une procédure de passation anticipée, financée dans un premier temps par un prêt relais (Bridge Loan - BL). L’entreprise a sollicité la Banque afin de financer rétroactivement, à partir du 30 juin 2024, les coûts couverts par ce prêt, notamment les frais d’ingénierie, de passation de marchés, de construction (EPC) ainsi que les dépenses de développement, en cofinancement avec la BEI.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project will provide an average of 48.3 GWh (at P90) and 57.8 GWh (at P50) per annum of additional renewable energy to households and will ensure a continued supply of low-cost renewable power in Cabo Verde. The availability of reliable and clean electricity will support green growth transition and economic growth in general and improve the financial performance of the power utility, with estimated costs savings of €10 million per annum to Electra. The project will help maintain the supply of low-cost renewable wind energy in Cabo Verde by increasing the share of renewables from 17% to 30% by 2025, while the BESS system will ensure the windfarm serves as a Green Baseload by ensuring predictability of dispatch and preventing the curtailment of wind power. The proposed expansion project will also contribute to the country’s NDC targets of 50% renewable energy generation by 2030, acceleration of economic growth and decarbonization by avoiding the emission of 50,000 CO2-eq per annum and reduced reliance on expensive oil generation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet permettra de fournir en moyenne 48,3 GWh par an (au niveau P90) et 57,8 GWh (au niveau P50) d’énergie renouvelable supplémentaire aux ménages, assurant ainsi un approvisionnement continu en électricité renouvelable à faible coût au Cabo Verde. La disponibilité d’une électricité fiable et propre soutiendra la transition vers une croissance verte, stimulera la croissance économique en général et améliorera la performance financière de la société nationale d’électricité, Electra, avec des économies estimées à 10 millions d’euros par an. Le projet contribuera au maintien d’un approvisionnement en énergie éolienne renouvelable et abordable, en faisant passer la part des énergies renouvelables dans le mix électrique de 17 % à 30 % d’ici 2025. Le système de stockage par batterie (BESS) permettra à la centrale éolienne de jouer un rôle de "base verte", en assurant la prévisibilité de la production et en évitant la limitation de l’énergie éolienne. Ce projet d’extension contribuera également à l’atteinte des objectifs de contribution déterminée au niveau national (CDN) du pays, à savoir 50 % de production d’électricité à partir de sources renouvelables d’ici 2030, tout en accélérant la croissance économique et la décarbonation. Il permettra d’éviter l’émission d’environ 50 000 tonnes équivalent CO? par an et de réduire la dépendance à la production à base de pétrole, coûteuse.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">Cabeólica S.A (the Company) was established in 2009 as a Public Private Partnership (PPP) between Infraco Limited, a privately managed infrastructure development company; the Government of Cabo Verde through the Ministry of Tourism, Industry and Energy; and the national utility Empresa de Eletricidade e Água (Electra S.A). The Project increases the penetration of renewable energy into the Cabo Verde power system by increasing renewables power generation. This will help further reduce the high utilization of fossil fuels in power generation, in addition, the Project will help the country to realise significant savings estimated at €10 million at current fuels prices as a result of reduced fossil fuel import. The Project is the first commercial scale renewable energy project with a BESS component in Cabo Verde, providing strong demonstration and replication benefits for upcoming projects in the country.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Cabeólica S.A. (la Société) a été créée en 2009 dans le cadre d’un partenariat public-privé (PPP) entre Infraco Limited, une société privée spécialisée dans le développement d’infrastructures ; le Gouvernement du Cabo Verde, représenté par le Ministère du Tourisme, de l’Industrie et de l’Énergie ; et la société nationale d’électricité et d’eau, Empresa de Eletricidade e Água (Electra S.A.). Le projet vise à accroître la part des énergies renouvelables dans le système électrique du Cabo Verde en augmentant la production d’électricité verte. Cela contribuera à réduire davantage la forte dépendance aux combustibles fossiles pour la production d’énergie. De plus, le projet permettra au pays de réaliser des économies substantielles, estimées à 10 millions d’euros aux prix actuels des carburants, grâce à la baisse des importations de combustibles fossiles. Il s’agit du premier projet d’énergie renouvelable à l’échelle commerciale intégrant un système de stockage par batterie (BESS) au Cabo Verde, offrant ainsi un fort potentiel de démonstration et de reproduction pour les futurs projets dans le pays.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Ministry of finance</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-SEFA" type="40"><narrative>Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-06-13" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-07-30" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COML</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Hammadoun Amadou DIALL</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>h.diall@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="CV"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="3374855"/><name><narrative>Concelho da Boa Vista</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>16.0833 -22.8333</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="3374197"/><name><narrative>Ilha de Sao Vicente</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>16.8333 -25</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="3374249"/><name><narrative>Concelho do Sal</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>16.75 -22.9167</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="7603281"/><name><narrative>Concelho de Ribeira Grande de Santiago</narrative></name><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="0" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>14.9833 -23.65</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23111"><narrative>Energy sector policy, planning and administration</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

CoJ has struggled to meet rising demand for basic services from its growing population of residents within the Johannesburg metropolis with subsectors like energy, water, sewerage / sanitation, solid waste management taking the biggest toll due to lack of adequate financing to sustain the expansion of capacity needed to keep pace with rising demand. Therefore, the loan will seek to help address the financing gap in the aforementioned subsectors by unlocking additional funding towards CoJ’s critical sectors thereby enhancing productive capacity in the City. The CAPEX funds will be used by CoJ to exclusively finance capex requirements under trading services for electricity, water and sewage, and solid waste management projects. These projectshave been identified and defined and are primarily on brownfield sites. Most are already under implementation.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’opération porte sur l’octroi à la Ville de Johannesburg (CoJ) d’un prêt senior non garanti de la Banque africaine de développement (BAD) d’un montant de 2,5 milliards de ZAR (conformément aux lignes directrices sur le financement infranational), destiné à soutenir les besoins d’investissement en capital (CAPEX) de la municipalité. Ce financement servira à maintenir et à étendre la fourniture de services de base à la population. La CoJ peine à répondre à la demande croissante en services essentiels émanant de la population toujours plus nombreuse de la métropole de Johannesburg, les sous-secteurs tels que l’énergie, l’eau, l’assainissement et la gestion des déchets solides étant particulièrement affectés par le manque de ressources financières suffisantes pour soutenir l’expansion des capacités nécessaires afin de suivre le rythme de la demande. Le prêt vise donc à combler ce déficit de financement dans les sous-secteurs susmentionnés en mobilisant des ressources supplémentaires pour les secteurs stratégiques de la ville, renforçant ainsi sa capacité productive. Les fonds du CAPEX seront exclusivement utilisés par la CoJ pour financer les besoins d’investissement relevant des services commerciaux, notamment les projets d’électricité, d’eau et d’assainissement, ainsi que de gestion des déchets solides. Ces projets ont été identifiés et définis, et concernent principalement des sites déjà existants (« brownfield »), dont la plupart sont déjà en cours de mise en œuvre.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Development Outcomes include expanded accessibility of potable water supply, improved quality of water, reduction of water and electricity technical and commercial losses, improvement in water quality discharged by sewerage treatment plants into rivers, Water Demand Management, Renewal of infrastructure, and general improvement in service delivery and access levels through increased service connections for all infrastructure.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les résultats attendus du développement incluent une accessibilité accrue à l’eau potable, une amélioration de la qualité de l’eau, une réduction des pertes techniques et commerciales d’eau et d’électricité, une amélioration de la qualité des eaux rejetées par les stations d’épuration dans les rivières, une meilleure gestion de la demande en eau, le renouvellement des infrastructures ainsi qu’une amélioration générale de la prestation des services et des niveaux d’accès, grâce à l’augmentation du nombre de raccordements à l’ensemble des infrastructures.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">Project main beneficiaries are City of Johannesburg (CoJ) residents.

The project is a key component of Egypt’s Integrated Sustainable Energy Strategy 2035, which aims to transition the country’s electricity sector—currently dominated by oil and gas—towards an energy mix comprising 42% renewable sources. By combining solar PV generation with the BESS, the project will deliver clean and dispatchable energy, helping to address intermittency challenges, improve grid stability, and support frequency regulation and voltage control. Financial close is expected in early June 2025, and the project will be implemented in two phases. Phase 1, comprising 500 MWac of solar PV and a 200 MWh BESS, is expected to reach commercial operation date (COD) in March 2026 after a nine-month construction period. Phase 2, consisting of the remaining 500 MWac, is expected to reach COD in September 2026. The entire project will be completed within 15 months from financial close. It is being implemented by Scatec and, once completed, will be the first large-scale independent power producer (IPP) solar project in the country to integrate a BESS.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet comprend la conception, la construction, l'exploitation et la maintenance d'une centrale solaire photovoltaïque de 1 GWac, d'un système de stockage d'énergie par batterie (BESS) de 100 MWac/200 MWh et d'une sous-station électrique à haute tension associée à Nagaa Hammadi en Égypte, d’un coût estimé à 593,6 millions d’USD.

Le projet améliorera la qualité de l'approvisionnement en électricité, en réduisant les coupures de courte durée, en minimisant les perturbations pour les consommateurs et en atténuant les fluctuations électriques.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-CTF" type="40"><narrative>Clean Technology Fund</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-SEFA" type="40"><narrative>Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Ministry of finance</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="2"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-06-11" type="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-06-12" type="2"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COEG</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Eshrak Alaaeldin Mohamed HELMY</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Portfolio Officer, PINS2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>e.helmy@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="EG"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="351434"/><name><narrative>Nag Hammadi</narrative></name><administrative code="1181" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="15563" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>26.04949 32.24142</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="1"/><feature-designation code="ADM1"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="23111"><narrative>Energy sector policy, planning and administration</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy -

In addition to financing from the Bank’s own resources, the Bank is also mobilizing co-financing of EUR 25 million from the Africa Growing Together Fund (AGTF) and USD 10 million from the Agri-Food SME Catalytic Financing Mechanism (ACFM), a Special Fund managed by the Bank, with a focus on supporting Agri-SMEs. The tenor for the Facility will be 2 years, renewable once at the discretion of the Bank and subject to satisfactory performance and full repayment of the first loan. These programs, implemented by SUCDEN throughout the production season, focus on improving smallholder farmers' livelihoods, enhancing their capacity to implement good agricultural practices, and strengthening the overall traceability and sustainability of the supply chain. To further deepen the overall impact, the Bank is also processing an accompanying Technical Assistance Grant from ACFM with a focus on supporting cocoa farmers and cooperatives address key capacity gaps, increase investment readiness and to better adapt to the increasing impact of climate change through an upgraded digitalization of climate smart agriculture curriculum. This Project builds on the Bank’s existing relationship with SUCDEN, beginning from 2015 with facilities to support the Group’s cocoa operations in Côte d’Ivoire, and more recently, in 2024, with a facility focused on Ghana, Nigeria and Cameroon. The Group has successfully implemented previous Bank facilities and demonstrated strong capabilities in improving agricultural supply chains and smallholder farmer livelihoods.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet consiste en un prêt d’entreprise de 100 millions d’euros accordé à SUCDEN Côte d’Ivoire (SUCDEN-CI) et à sa société mère Sucres &amp; Denrées S.A., destiné au préfinancement, à l’exportation et au financement de la chaîne de valeur du cacao produit de manière durable en Côte d’Ivoire. En complément du financement provenant des ressources propres de la Banque, celle-ci mobilise également un cofinancement de 25 millions d’euros du Fonds Africa Growing Together (AGTF) ainsi qu’un financement de 10 millions de dollars américains du Mécanisme Catalytique de Financement des PME Agroalimentaires (ACFM), un fonds spécial géré par la Banque et axé sur le soutien aux PME agroalimentaires. La durée du financement est de deux ans, renouvelable une fois à la discrétion de la Banque, sous réserve d’une performance satisfaisante et du remboursement intégral du premier prêt. Les programmes mis en œuvre par SUCDEN tout au long de la saison de production visent à améliorer les moyens de subsistance des petits producteurs, à renforcer leurs capacités en matière de bonnes pratiques agricoles et à consolider la traçabilité et la durabilité de l’ensemble de la chaîne d’approvisionnement. Pour accroître davantage l’impact global, la Banque prépare également une subvention d’assistance technique financée par l’ACFM, visant à soutenir les producteurs de cacao et leurs coopératives dans la réduction des lacunes de capacités, à accroître leur préparation à l’investissement et à mieux s’adapter aux effets croissants du changement climatique, notamment grâce à la numérisation améliorée d’un programme de formation en agriculture intelligente face au climat. Ce projet s’inscrit dans la continuité de la relation existante entre la Banque et SUCDEN, entamée en 2015 avec des facilités destinées à soutenir les activités cacaoyères du groupe en Côte d’Ivoire, et plus récemment, en 2024, avec une facilité couvrant le Ghana, le Nigeria et le Cameroun. Le groupe a mis en œuvre avec succès les précédentes facilités accordées par la Banque et a démontré sa forte capacité à améliorer les chaînes d’approvisionnement agricoles ainsi que les moyens de subsistance des petits producteurs.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Bank’s Facility will contribute to meeting SUCDEN’s annual projected financing requirements for its cocoa purchases in Côte d’Ivoire for the next two seasons, beginning from the 2025/2026 season.

In addition to financing from the Bank’s own resources, the Bank is also mobilizing co-financing of EUR 25 million from the Africa Growing Together Fund (AGTF) and USD 10 million from the Agri-Food SME Catalytic Financing Mechanism (ACFM), a Special Fund managed by the Bank, with a focus on supporting Agri-SMEs. The tenor for the Facility will be 2 years, renewable once at the discretion of the Bank and subject to satisfactory performance and full repayment of the first loan. These programs, implemented by SUCDEN throughout the production season, focus on improving smallholder farmers' livelihoods, enhancing their capacity to implement good agricultural practices, and strengthening the overall traceability and sustainability of the supply chain. To further deepen the overall impact, the Bank is also processing an accompanying Technical Assistance Grant from ACFM with a focus on supporting cocoa farmers and cooperatives address key capacity gaps, increase investment readiness and to better adapt to the increasing impact of climate change through an upgraded digitalization of climate smart agriculture curriculum. This Project builds on the Bank’s existing relationship with SUCDEN, beginning from 2015 with facilities to support the Group’s cocoa operations in Côte d’Ivoire, and more recently, in 2024, with a facility focused on Ghana, Nigeria and Cameroon. The Group has successfully implemented previous Bank facilities and demonstrated strong capabilities in improving agricultural supply chains and smallholder farmer livelihoods.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet consiste en un prêt d’entreprise de 100 millions d’euros accordé à SUCDEN Côte d’Ivoire (SUCDEN-CI) et à sa société mère Sucres &amp; Denrées S.A., destiné au préfinancement, à l’exportation et au financement de la chaîne de valeur du cacao produit de manière durable en Côte d’Ivoire. En complément du financement provenant des ressources propres de la Banque, celle-ci mobilise également un cofinancement de 25 millions d’euros du Fonds Africa Growing Together (AGTF) ainsi qu’un financement de 10 millions de dollars américains du Mécanisme Catalytique de Financement des PME Agroalimentaires (ACFM), un fonds spécial géré par la Banque et axé sur le soutien aux PME agroalimentaires. La durée du financement est de deux ans, renouvelable une fois à la discrétion de la Banque, sous réserve d’une performance satisfaisante et du remboursement intégral du premier prêt. Les programmes mis en œuvre par SUCDEN tout au long de la saison de production visent à améliorer les moyens de subsistance des petits producteurs, à renforcer leurs capacités en matière de bonnes pratiques agricoles et à consolider la traçabilité et la durabilité de l’ensemble de la chaîne d’approvisionnement. Pour accroître davantage l’impact global, la Banque prépare également une subvention d’assistance technique financée par l’ACFM, visant à soutenir les producteurs de cacao et leurs coopératives dans la réduction des lacunes de capacités, à accroître leur préparation à l’investissement et à mieux s’adapter aux effets croissants du changement climatique, notamment grâce à la numérisation améliorée d’un programme de formation en agriculture intelligente face au climat. Ce projet s’inscrit dans la continuité de la relation existante entre la Banque et SUCDEN, entamée en 2015 avec des facilités destinées à soutenir les activités cacaoyères du groupe en Côte d’Ivoire, et plus récemment, en 2024, avec une facilité couvrant le Ghana, le Nigeria et le Cameroun. Le groupe a mis en œuvre avec succès les précédentes facilités accordées par la Banque et a démontré sa forte capacité à améliorer les chaînes d’approvisionnement agricoles ainsi que les moyens de subsistance des petits producteurs.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Bank’s Facility will contribute to meeting SUCDEN’s annual projected financing requirements for its cocoa purchases in Côte d’Ivoire for the next two seasons, beginning from the 2025/2026 season.

La transaction est structurée via un véhicule de titrisation dédié, FCTC EPT 2025–2040, géré par Africa Link Capital Titrisation, sous la supervision de l’AMF-UEMOA, avec le Fonds PEPT comme entité porteuse et la Compagnie Ivoirienne d’Électricité (CIE) comme agence d’exécution des raccordements.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The objective of the project is to accelerate universal access to electricity in Côte d’Ivoire by mobilizing long-term local-currency financing through capital markets to fund last-mile electricity connections for low-income households. As a flagship operation under the African Development Bank–World Bank Mission 300 initiative, the project aims to demonstrate an innovative and scalable financing model that combines social bond issuance, securitization techniques and development finance to expand affordable electricity access. By securitizing connection receivables and recycling capital, the project seeks to reduce the upfront cost barrier for households, strengthen the financial sustainability of the national electrification programme, and contribute to inclusive growth, climate resilience and the development of domestic capital markets.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet est d’accélérer l’accès universel à l’électricité en Côte d’Ivoire en mobilisant des financements de long terme en monnaie locale à travers les marchés de capitaux afin de financer les raccordements électriques du dernier kilomètre au profit des ménages à faibles revenus. En tant qu’opération emblématique de l’initiative conjointe Mission 300 de la Banque africaine de développement et de la Banque mondiale, le projet vise à démontrer un modèle de financement innovant et reproductible combinant obligations sociales, titrisation et finance du développement pour élargir l’accès à une électricité abordable. En titrisant les créances liées aux raccordements et en recyclant les ressources financières, le projet contribue à réduire la barrière du coût initial pour les ménages, à renforcer la viabilité financière du programme national d’électrification et à soutenir une croissance inclusive, résiliente au climat, ainsi que le développement des marchés financiers régionaux.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will directly benefit approximately 2.2 million people across Côte d’Ivoire through the provision of 423,828 new electricity connections, with a strong focus on low-income and underserved populations who would otherwise be unable to afford connection costs. Beneficiaries include households, small businesses and communities gaining access to reliable electricity, enabling income-generating activities, improved educational outcomes, better health services and enhanced quality of life, particularly for women-headed households. Indirect beneficiaries include local contractors and service providers involved in connection works, financial market participants benefiting from the expansion of the social bond and securitization markets within the WAEMU region, and the broader Ivorian economy through increased productivity, reduced reliance on polluting energy sources and progress toward the national goal of 100 percent electricity access by 2030.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet bénéficiera directement à environ 2,2 millions de personnes à travers la réalisation de 423 828 nouveaux raccordements électriques sur l’ensemble du territoire ivoirien, avec un ciblage prioritaire des populations à faibles revenus et insuffisamment desservies. Les bénéficiaires incluent les ménages, les petites entreprises et les communautés ayant accès à une électricité fiable, favorisant le développement d’activités génératrices de revenus, l’amélioration des résultats scolaires, de meilleurs services de santé et une amélioration globale des conditions de vie, notamment pour les ménages dirigés par des femmes. Les bénéficiaires indirects comprennent les entreprises locales impliquées dans les travaux de raccordement, les acteurs des marchés financiers régionaux bénéficiant du développement du marché des obligations sociales et de la titrisation dans l’UEMOA, ainsi que l’économie ivoirienne dans son ensemble grâce à une productivité accrue, une réduction de l’utilisation de sources d’énergie polluantes et des progrès vers l’objectif national d’accès universel à l’électricité à l’horizon 2030.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-SEFA" type="40"><narrative>Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>FCTC PEPT Social Bond</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-10-15" type="1"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PESR2</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Lamine ROBERT KONE</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer (Origination), PESR2</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>l.robertkone@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="CI"/><sector vocabulary="1" code="23111"><narrative>Energy sector policy, planning and administration</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.6.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Energy - policy, planning and administration</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2025-10-15"/><period-end iso-date="2026-01-15"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2025-10-15">3247908.235000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-01-15"/><period-end iso-date="2026-04-15"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-01-15">3247908.235000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-04-15"/><period-end iso-date="2026-07-15"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-04-15">3247908.235000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-07-15"/><period-end iso-date="2026-10-15"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-07-15">3247908.235000</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000130022781"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2025-10-15"/><value value-date="2025-10-15">9094143.06</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>Fctc Ept 2025-2040 Sub-fund C</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="421"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="5590130000451"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2025-10-15"/><value value-date="2025-10-15">3897489.88</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-SEFA"><narrative>Sustainable Energy Fund for Africa</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>Fctc Ept 2025-2040 Sub-fund C</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="421"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-CI-FA0-028" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/default/files/documents/projects-and-operations/m300_-_phase_2_electricity_for_all_project_pept_social_bond_xof_15_billion.pdf" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/default/files/documents/projects-and-operations/psn_-_m300_-phase_2_pept_project_vf_fr.pdf" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

The Project is an innovative financing which complements the ambitious PEPT Program of the Ivoirian Government and represents a flagship implementation of the Bank's "Mission 300" program, launched with the World Bank in 2024 to provide electricity access to 300 million additional Africans by 2030. This private sector operation represents a flagship implementation of the Bank's "Mission 300" program, launched with the World Bank at the Spring Meetings 2024 to provide electricity access to 300 million additional Africans by 2030. The project aligns with the Bank's broader ambition to play a leading role in both capital markets development and access to energy across the continent.

Les principales activités prévues comprennent le renforcement du cadre réglementaire des PPP à travers l’élaboration de lignes directrices sectorielles pour la mise en œuvre de la loi modificative sur les PPP (aux niveaux infranational, énergie, eau, transport et logistique), l’élaboration de lignes directrices pour opérationnaliser le Fonds de soutien au développement de projets, le renforcement institutionnel du Bureau des PPP, la mise au point de directives et de manuels d’évaluation pour la gestion des investissements publics (PIM), ainsi que la formation sur la PIM. Le projet prévoit également la numérisation des modules de gestion des recours et de suivi de la conformité sur la plateforme de passation électronique des marchés publics (E-GP), l’élaboration de réglementations sur les marchés publics durables et le renforcement des capacités des soumissionnaires et des entités adjudicatrices conformément à la loi modificative sur la passation des marchés publics. Enfin, le projet comprend la gestion et la coordination avec des mécanismes de suivi. Ces activités sont jugées essentielles pour faire progresser la diversification économique du pays en améliorant l’environnement propice au développement du secteur privé. Le coût total du projet est estimé à 1 000 000 USD, dont 900 000 USD sont sollicités auprès du Fonds d’Assistance au Secteur Privé (FAPA) et 100 000 USD proviendront de la contribution en nature du Gouvernement de la Zambie (GoZ), sous forme de personnel dédié à la mise en œuvre du projet et de frais généraux tels que la mise à disposition de bureaux.

This is a senior loan of USD 100 million with a tenor of up to 12 years, inclusive of a 4-year grace period. EAAIF, formerly known as Emerging Africa Infrastructural Fund (until October 2024, when it expanded to include Asia), was established in Mauritius in 2001 to finance infrastructure projects. The fund is managed by Ninety-One, an investment management firm established in 1991 in Cape Town, with additional offices located in London, Singapore, Hong Kong, and New York. Over the plan period, the Fund aims to finance approximately USD 865 million in committed investments over 3 fundraising rounds occurring in 2025, 2026 and 2027 respectively.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet proposé consiste à accorder un quatrième prêt d’entreprise au Emerging Africa &amp; Asia Infrastructure Fund (EAAIF ou le Fonds) afin de soutenir son Plan d’Affaires 2025–2027. Il s’agit d’un prêt senior de 100 millions USD, d’une durée maximale de 12 ans, incluant une période de grâce de 4 ans. L’EAAIF, anciennement Emerging Africa Infrastructural Fund (jusqu’en octobre 2024, date à laquelle il a étendu son champ d’intervention à l’Asie), a été établi à Maurice en 2001 pour financer des projets d’infrastructures. Le Fonds est géré par Ninety-One, une société de gestion d’investissements créée en 1991 au Cap, disposant également de bureaux à Londres, Singapour, Hong Kong et New York. Sur la période du plan, le Fonds vise à financer environ 865 millions USD d’investissements engagés au cours de trois cycles de collecte de fonds prévus en 2025, 2026 et 2027.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The facility will enable EAAIF to scale up its lending operations and address the infrastructure financing gap across sub-Saharan Africa. The proceeds will support the Fund’s strategic objectives, strengthen its blended finance structure, and deepen the Bank’s longstanding partnership with EAAIF, following the successful delivery of three previous facilities.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">La facilité permettra à l’EAAIF d’intensifier ses opérations de prêt et de contribuer à combler le déficit de financement des infrastructures en Afrique subsaharienne. Les ressources ainsi mobilisées soutiendront les objectifs stratégiques du Fonds, renforceront sa structure de financement mixte (blended finance) et approfondiront le partenariat de longue date entre la Banque et l’EAAIF, après la mise en œuvre réussie de trois précédentes facilités.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">By investing in infrastructure, the EAAIF will help create new jobs both temporary (during construction) and permanent (during operations). These companies, as they generate profit, will increase African governments revenues by paying taxes and, as applicable, dividends, and concession and/or license fees. Investment in green energy production will help offset the greenhouse gas emissions. The EAAIF also invests in climate-driven infrastructure adapted to climate changes. Investments in regional infrastructure will enhance regional integration. Investments in the waste management sector will minimize pollution and waste. More fundamentally, the debt provided by EAAIF will support private-led projects and help crowd-in private capital investment into Africa’s infrastructure, further developing the private sector.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">En investissant dans les infrastructures, l’EAAIF contribuera à créer de nouveaux emplois, à la fois temporaires (durant la phase de construction) et permanents (durant la phase d’exploitation). À mesure que ces entreprises généreront des profits, elles accroîtront les recettes publiques des gouvernements africains grâce au paiement d’impôts et, le cas échéant, de dividendes, ainsi que de redevances de concession et/ou de licence. Les investissements dans la production d’énergie verte permettront de compenser les émissions de gaz à effet de serre. L’EAAIF investit également dans des infrastructures résilientes et adaptées aux changements climatiques. Les investissements dans les infrastructures régionales renforceront l’intégration régionale. Les investissements dans le secteur de la gestion des déchets contribueront à réduire la pollution et la production de déchets. Plus fondamentalement, la dette fournie par l’EAAIF soutiendra des projets portés par le secteur privé et favorisera la mobilisation de capitaux privés supplémentaires dans les infrastructures africaines, contribuant ainsi au développement du secteur privé.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Emerging Africa Infrastructure Fund</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-10-24" type="1"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>COMA</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Hassen BEN AYED</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Infrastructure Investment Officer, PICU4</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>h.benayed@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="3"/><recipient-region code="298"/><sector vocabulary="1" code="72050"><narrative>Relief co-ordination and support services</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="5.4.11" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Social Protection, Land Housing and Community Amenities - disaster prevention and preparedness</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2025-10-24"/><period-end iso-date="2026-01-24"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2025-10-24">18404140.195000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-01-24"/><period-end iso-date="2026-04-24"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-01-24">18404140.195000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-04-24"/><period-end iso-date="2026-07-24"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-04-24">18404140.195000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-07-24"/><period-end iso-date="2026-10-24"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-07-24">18404140.195000</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000230031452"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2025-10-24"/><value value-date="2025-10-24">73616560.78</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>The Emerging Africa Infrastructure Fund</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="421"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/default/files/documents/environmental-and-social-assessments/hses-001-001-pidg-hses-policies-2020.pdf" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Environmental Study</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-Z1-KE0-031" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/all/libraries/pdf.js/web/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.afdb.org%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments%2Fprojects-and-operations%2Fmultinational_-_fourth_corporate_loan_to_the_emerging_africa_asia_infrastructure_fund_eaaif.4_psn_-_rev.1_traite.pdf#page=1&amp;zoom=auto,-13,842" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/all/libraries/pdf.js/web/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.afdb.org%2Fsites%2Fdefault%2Ffiles%2Fdocuments%2Fprojects-and-operations%2Fmultinational_-_quatrieme_pret_dentreprise_au_fonds_dinfrastructure_pour_lafrique_et_lasie_emergentes_eaaif-4_-_fr.pdf#page=1&amp;zoom=auto,-13,848" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

The associated infrastructure includes, a sulphuric acid production unit, a steam production unit, solid and liquid feedstock storage areas, among others. The TiO? will serve domestic and export markets in coatings, paints, plastics, and paper. Construction is expected to begin after the financial close in Q3 2025, with a 36-month build period followed by 12 months for testing, ramp-up, and commissioning. Commercial operations are expected to commence in June 2029. The Project is a key real sector project with significant development outcomes, including creating 850 permanent jobs and contributing significantly to (re)industrialisation of this region, a crucial objective of South Africa’s economy. Further, via establishing the only TiO2 plant on the continent, the Project will allow for substitution of a large part of the current TiO2 imports and increase intra-African trade. Last, it opens possibilities for additional downstream projects and value chain development for the wider region. In essence, the Project will create an intra-African TiO2 market.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet consiste en l’octroi d’un prêt senior garanti à Nyanza Light Metals Proprietary Limited pour le développement d’une nouvelle usine de production de dioxyde de titane (TiO?) à base de sulfate, d’une capacité de 80 000 tonnes par an (tpa), sur un site de 69 hectares situé dans la zone de développement industriel de Richards Bay (Richard’s Bay Industrial Development Zone – RBIDZ), en Afrique du Sud. Les infrastructures associées comprennent notamment une unité de production d’acide sulfurique, une unité de production de vapeur, ainsi que des aires de stockage de matières premières solides et liquides, entre autres installations. Le TiO? produit sera destiné aux marchés national et à l’exportation, notamment pour les secteurs des revêtements, peintures, plastiques et papier. Les travaux de construction devraient démarrer après la clôture financière prévue au troisième trimestre 2025, avec une période de construction de 36 mois, suivie de 12 mois consacrés aux essais, à la montée en régime et à la mise en service. Le démarrage des opérations commerciales est attendu en juin 2029. Le projet constitue une intervention majeure dans le secteur réel, avec des retombées de développement significatives, notamment la création de 850 emplois permanents et une contribution importante à la (ré)industrialisation de la région, qui constitue un objectif clé de l’économie sud-africaine. En outre, l’établissement de la seule usine de TiO? sur le continent permettra de substituer une part importante des importations actuelles de TiO? et de renforcer le commerce intra-africain. Enfin, le projet ouvrira des perspectives pour le développement de projets en aval supplémentaires et pour le renforcement des chaînes de valeur dans l’ensemble de la région. En substance, le projet contribuera à la création d’un véritable marché intra-africain du TiO?.</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The proposed facility is expected to provide long-term hard currency financing to support the development of Africa’s first and only titanium dioxide (TiO?) manufacturing plant, a capital-intensive and strategically important industrial project.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le financement proposé devrait fournir des ressources à long terme en devises fortes afin de soutenir le développement de la première et unique usine de fabrication de dioxyde de titane (TiO?) en Afrique, un projet industriel stratégique et à forte intensité capitalistique.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project beneficiaries are : (i) Households (job creation – 2,400 during construction and 850 during operation; community based CSR activities); (ii) Firms (creation of new industries and strengthening of companies in the titanium mineral value-chain, boosting intraAfrica trade, increased availability of locally produced TiO2 pigments on SA market to substitute import); (ii) Governments (corporate income taxes of circa USD 423.3 million over loan life; contribution to improvements in SA’s balance of payments; foreign currency earnings from TiO2 pigment exports). The project is expected to boost the manufacturing sector, which currently contributes less than 15% to South Africa's GDP. Thus, the Bank's intervention will help stimulate growth in manufacturing output and contribute more to aggregate output in the economy.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les bénéficiaires du projet sont : (i) les ménages, à travers la création d’emplois (2 400 emplois pendant la phase de construction et 850 emplois durant la phase d’exploitation), ainsi que des activités de responsabilité sociétale des entreprises (RSE) au niveau communautaire ; (ii) les entreprises, par la création de nouvelles industries et le renforcement des sociétés de la chaîne de valeur des minéraux titaniques, la stimulation du commerce intra-africain et l’augmentation de la disponibilité de pigments de TiO? produits localement sur le marché sud-africain en substitution aux importations ; et (iii) les gouvernements, à travers la génération d’impôts sur les sociétés estimés à environ 423,3 millions de dollars sur la durée du prêt, la contribution à l’amélioration de la balance des paiements de l’Afrique du Sud et les recettes en devises issues des exportations de pigments de TiO?. Le projet devrait stimuler le secteur manufacturier, qui contribue actuellement à moins de 15 % du PIB de l’Afrique du Sud. Ainsi, l’intervention de la Banque contribuera à dynamiser la production manufacturière et à accroître sa contribution à la production globale de l’économie.</narrative></description><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Nyanza Light Metals Proprieta</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-AGTF" type="40"><narrative>Africa Growing Together Fund</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-10-22" type="1"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PITD3</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Samuel OTU</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, PITD3</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>s.otu@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="ZA"/><sector vocabulary="1" code="32110"><narrative>Industrial policy and administrative management</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.9.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Industry -

It is currently the most advanced power pool on the African continent and endowed with significant untapped resource of Variable Renewable Energy (VRE). As the region will connect more solar and wind power to the grid, there is a pressing need to strengthen and stabilize the grid system through energy storage solutions such as batteries and pumped hydro. However, there is no comprehensive regional strategy of SAPP for developing these storage solutions. Moreover, policy makers, regulators, and utility companies in member countries currently lack the necessary capacity and skill sets to effectively implement such a strategy. Therefore, this project aims to support the SAPP in developing a regional energy storage strategy which consists of an investment plan, a training plan, and identified key pilot projects to address those challenges. By incorporating energy storage solutions into the grid system, the SAPP can attract further private investment in power generation with solar and wind. Furthermore, it will contribute to private investment in transmission and distribution, thereby enhancing the overall grid system. This project is a part of the Africa Energy Sector Technical Assistance Program (AESTAP) 1. The program aims to provide knowledge and technical assistance to support Regional Member Countries (RMCs) in improving their know-how and institutional capacity to formulate innovative and sustainable energy solutions that will ensure universal access to modern, affordable, and reliable energy services. AESTAP aims to create an enabling environment that is more conducive for prospective sovereign and non-sovereign investments to contribute towards energy security and energy access while also promoting the decarbonization of Africa’s energy systems. The project implementation period will span over three years, from 2025 Q4 to 2028 Q4 (36 months).</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Southern African Power Pool (SAPP) favorise le commerce de l’énergie en facilitant le développement et l’utilisation optimisée de la production d’électricité à faible émission de carbone, desservant 360 millions de personnes dans 12 pays d’Afrique australe avec une capacité opérationnelle de 47,7 GW. Il s’agit actuellement du pool électrique le plus avancé du continent africain, doté d’un important potentiel inexploité en énergie renouvelable variable (ERV). Alors que la région prévoit de connecter davantage de centrales solaires et éoliennes au réseau, il devient urgent de renforcer et de stabiliser le système électrique grâce à des solutions de stockage d’énergie telles que les batteries et les stations de pompage-turbinage. Cependant, il n’existe pas de stratégie régionale complète du SAPP pour le développement de ces solutions de stockage. De plus, les décideurs politiques, régulateurs et entreprises de services publics des pays membres manquent actuellement des capacités et compétences nécessaires pour mettre en œuvre efficacement une telle stratégie. Ce projet vise donc à soutenir le SAPP dans l’élaboration d’une stratégie régionale de stockage d’énergie comprenant un plan d’investissement, un plan de formation et l’identification de projets pilotes clés afin de relever ces défis. En intégrant des solutions de stockage d’énergie dans le réseau, le SAPP pourra attirer davantage d’investissements privés dans la production d’électricité solaire et éolienne. Par ailleurs, il contribuera à stimuler l’investissement privé dans la transmission et la distribution, renforçant ainsi le système électrique global. Ce projet s’inscrit dans le cadre du Programme d’Assistance Technique au Secteur de l’Énergie en Afrique (AESTAP) 1, qui vise à fournir connaissances et assistance technique aux pays membres régionaux (RMCs) pour améliorer leur expertise et leur capacité institutionnelle à concevoir des solutions énergétiques innovantes et durables, garantissant un accès universel à des services énergétiques modernes, abordables et fiables. L’AESTAP a pour objectif de créer un environnement favorable à l’investissement souverain et non souverain afin de contribuer à la sécurité énergétique et à l’accès à l’énergie, tout en promouvant la décarbonisation des systèmes énergétiques africains. La mise en œuvre du projet s’étendra sur trois ans, de T4 2025 à T4 2028 (36 mois).</narrative></description><description type="2"><narrative xml:lang="en">The Project will support the development of a regional strategy for promoting energy storage solutions for the SAPP grid system.

The facility is expected to support at least EUR 248 million worth of trade transactions over a period of three and a half years, including EUR 158 million through the TFLOC and EUR 90 million through the TG. Lastly, it will contribute to generating additional tax revenue through import duties and maintaining and/or creating jobs by supporting SMEs and local businesses engaged in international trade. The new inflow of resources will have positive ripple effects on private sector development and economic growth. More specifically, the implementation of the project should help to generate more tax revenue for the Government and create numerous jobs.

Elle contribuera également à générer des recettes fiscales supplémentaires grâce aux droits d’importation, ainsi qu’à maintenir et/ou créer des emplois en soutenant les PME et les entreprises locales engagées dans le commerce international. L’apport de nouvelles ressources aura des effets d’entraînement positifs sur le développement du secteur privé et la croissance économique.&#13;
Plus spécifiquement, la mise en œuvre du projet devrait contribuer à accroître les recettes fiscales de l’État et à créer de nombreux emplois.

Through the liquidity facility and the guarantee backed by the African Development Bank's AAA credit rating, the project will bolster up the Cameroonian economy primarily by financing imports of equipment for the manufacturing and agribusiness sectors. The equipment acquired will ultimately help to boost production, thereby strengthening local supply and stimulating the country's exports. The final beneficiaries will be SMEs and other local businesses, including women- and/or youth-led enterprises that are customers of CCA-Bank. Overall, the projects to be financed by CCA-Bank will be low-carbon projects, with limited vulnerability to climate risks and that do not exacerbate such risks.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet soutiendra les PME et autres entreprises locales opérant dans les secteurs de l’agro-industrie et de l’import-export.

Les équipements acquis permettront in fine d’accroître la production, renforçant ainsi l’offre locale et stimulant les exportations du pays. Les bénéficiaires finaux seront les PME et autres entreprises locales, y compris celles dirigées par des femmes et/ou des jeunes, clientes de CCA-Bank. Globalement, les projets financés par CCA-Bank seront des projets à faibles émissions de carbone, présentant une vulnérabilité limitée aux risques climatiques et n’accentuant pas ces risques.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Crédit Communautaire d'Afrique Bank (CCA-Bank)</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-12-01" type="1"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>PIFD3</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Norine Sylvie MOUGONGAYE</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Trade Finance Officer, PIFD3</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>n.mougongaye@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="CM"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2232593"/><name><narrative>Douala</narrative></name><administrative code="819" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="12490" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>4.04827 9.70428</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="2220957"/><name><narrative>Yaoundé</narrative></name><administrative code="816" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="12473" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>3.86667 11.5167</pos></point><exactness code="2"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPLC"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="24030"><narrative>Formal sector financial intermediaries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.12.1" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Microfinance and financial services - Microfinance and financial services</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2025-12-01"/><period-end iso-date="2026-03-01"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2025-12-01">3220542.770000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-03-01"/><period-end iso-date="2026-06-01"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-03-01">3220542.770000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-06-01"/><period-end iso-date="2026-09-01"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-06-01">3220542.770000</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-09-01"/><period-end iso-date="2026-12-01"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-09-01">3220542.770000</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000130022785"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2025-12-01"/><value value-date="2025-12-01">12882171.08</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>Crédit Communautaire D’afrique</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="421"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/default/files/documents/projects-and-operations/cameroon_credit_communautaire_dafrique_bank_cca_bank_project_summary_note.pdf" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/default/files/documents/projects-and-operations/cameroun-_credit_communautaire_dafrique-bank_cca_bank_note_de_synthese_de_projet.pdf" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-CM-HAB-008" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

Hyphen is a special purpose vehicle (SPV) established in Namibia to implement the Project, with ENERTRAG SE, Nicholas Holdings Limited and the GRN as the beneficial owners. The Project will be implemented in two phases, with production capacity of 1Mtpa in each phase. The PhaseI scope includes wind and solar energy generation (3.5GW), electrolyser capacity (1.5GW), pipelines and associated storage facilities, green ammonia production, and common user infrastructure (CUI) -e.g.pipelines, transmission lines and substations ; as well as port facilities. Hyphen was selected as the preferred bidder by the Government of the Republic of Namibia (GRN) after a competitive bidding process in 2021. The Feasibility and Implementation Agreement (FIA)-a 40-year concession agreement that stipulates the obligations and responsibilities of Hyphen and the GRN in the development, implementation and operation of the Project-was signed in May 2023. The FIA includes a Socio-Economic Development (SED) Framework to promote employment, skills development, local value chains and supplementary infrastructure. The Bank will support Hyphen through a SEFA-funded project preparation facility, covering Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) studies for solar and wind generation; battery energy storage systems (BESS); electrolyser capacity; and desalination infrastructure.

At the end of Phase II, the Project is expected to result in: (i) the installation of 7GW of renewable energy capacity in Namibia; (ii) mobilisation of capital of at least EUR15.0 billion (iii) achieve CO2 avoidance estimated at 5 million tons annually; and (iv) an estimated 15,000 and 3,000 jobs during the construction and operations phases, respectively –complemented by support  for  the development  of  local  value-chains  based  on  the  SED Framework; as well as the augmentation of potable water supplies through desalination.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Hyphen Hydrogen Energy (Pty) Limited (« Hyphen »), créée en Namibie en 2023, est la société de projet constituée pour exécuter le Projet et sera la bénéficiaire de la Subvention Remboursable (RG) du SEFA. La justification de cet appui repose sur la nécessité de réduire les risques liés à un projet d’hydrogène vert (GH) inédit, multidimensionnel et de grande envergure, qui devrait permettre de valoriser une partie des importantes ressources namibiennes en énergies renouvelables et de développer le secteur de l’hydrogène vert ; d’atténuer les effets du changement climatique ; de diversifier les revenus d’exportation grâce à la production d’hydrogène vert à faible coût et de ses dérivés ; et de contribuer au développement socioéconomique. À la fin de la Phase II, le Projet devrait aboutir à : (i) l’installation de 7 GW de capacité en énergies renouvelables en Namibie ; (ii) la mobilisation d’au moins 15,0 milliards d’euros de capitaux ; (iii) une réduction des émissions de CO? estimée à 5 millions de tonnes par an ; et (iv) la création d’environ 15 000 emplois pendant la phase de construction et 3 000 emplois pendant la phase d’exploitation.

By providing long-tenor liquidity to FirstRand Bank, the project seeks to address structural financing gaps faced by MSMEs, support business expansion and job creation, and promote gender equality through increased financial inclusion of women entrepreneurs. The project also aims to enhance the resilience of MSMEs by supporting climate-smart agricultural activities, strengthening value chains, and improving access to tailored financial products and advisory services, in line with the Bank’s private sector development, gender and resilience strategies.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet est de renforcer le développement du secteur privé et la croissance économique inclusive en Afrique du Sud en améliorant l’accès à des financements abordables et de long terme pour les MPME, en particulier celles détenues ou dirigées par des femmes et les entreprises agricoles féminines. En fournissant des ressources à maturité longue à FirstRand Bank, le projet vise à combler les déficits structurels de financement auxquels sont confrontées les MPME, à soutenir l’expansion des entreprises et la création d’emplois, et à promouvoir l’égalité de genre par une inclusion financière accrue des femmes entrepreneures. Le projet contribue également au renforcement de la résilience économique en soutenant des activités agricoles intelligentes face au climat, en consolidant les chaînes de valeur et en facilitant l’accès à des produits financiers et des services d’accompagnement adaptés.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The beneficiaries of the project include South African MSMEs across multiple sectors, particularly women-owned and women-led enterprises and women-owned agribusinesses that face persistent constraints in accessing long-term finance.

Indirect beneficiaries include households and communities that will benefit from increased economic activity, enhanced access to goods and services, and strengthened food security through improved financing of agricultural value chains. At the institutional level, FirstRand Bank will also benefit from enhanced capacity to scale up inclusive and sustainable finance, reinforcing the stability and development impact of South Africa’s financial sector.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Les bénéficiaires du projet sont les MPME sud-africaines opérant dans divers secteurs, avec un ciblage prioritaire des entreprises détenues ou dirigées par des femmes et des entreprises agricoles féminines confrontées à des contraintes d’accès au financement à long terme.

The project also seeks to support inclusive growth by integrating smallholder farmers through outgrower schemes, strengthening local supply chains and promoting sustainable farming practices that enhance resilience to climate risks.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">L’objectif du projet est de renforcer la productivité agricole, les capacités agro-industrielles et la compétitivité des exportations en Tanzanie à travers la réhabilitation des plantations existantes, l’extension des capacités de transformation et l’amélioration de la valeur ajoutée sur des cultures stratégiques. En fournissant un financement à long terme adapté aux cycles de production des cultures pérennes, le projet vise à améliorer la sécurité alimentaire, accroître les recettes d’exportation, promouvoir une agriculture résiliente face au climat et renforcer la participation du secteur privé à la transformation agricole du pays. Le projet contribue également à une croissance inclusive en intégrant les petits exploitants agricoles via des systèmes d’outgrowers, en consolidant les chaînes d’approvisionnement locales et en encourageant des pratiques agricoles durables.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project will directly and indirectly benefit a wide range of stakeholders across Tanzania’s agricultural value chains. It is expected to create up to 1,444 full-time jobs, including 243 jobs during construction and 1,201 jobs during operation, with approximately 80 percent of jobs for women and 60 percent for youth. Additional beneficiaries include women smallholder farmers participating in METL’s outgrower schemes, local suppliers and service providers benefiting from business linkages estimated at USD 45 million, and communities in the project areas through increased economic activity and income opportunities. At the national level, the project will contribute to USD 43.7 million in net foreign exchange earnings over ten years, strengthen intra-African trade through exports, and support improved livelihoods and resilience for households dependent on agriculture.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet bénéficiera directement et indirectement à de nombreux acteurs des chaînes de valeur agricoles en Tanzanie. Il devrait permettre la création de 1 444 emplois permanents, dont 243 pendant la phase de construction et 1 201 en phase d’exploitation, avec environ 80 % des emplois destinés aux femmes et 60 % aux jeunes. Les bénéficiaires incluent également les petits exploitants agricoles, en particulier les femmes, intégrés dans les programmes d’outgrowers de METL, les fournisseurs et prestataires locaux bénéficiant de liens économiques estimés à 45 millions de dollars, ainsi que les communautés locales à travers l’augmentation des revenus et des opportunités économiques. À l’échelle nationale, le projet contribuera à générer 43,7 millions de dollars de recettes nettes en devises sur dix ans, à renforcer le commerce intra-africain et à améliorer durablement les moyens de subsistance des ménages dépendant de l’agriculture.</narrative></description><participating-org role="4" ref="" type="10"><narrative>Mohammed Enterprises Tanzania</narrative></participating-org><participating-org role="1" ref="XM-DAC-46002" type="40"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></participating-org><other-identifier ref="46002" type="B1"><owner-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></owner-org></other-identifier><activity-status code="1"/><activity-date iso-date="2025-11-12" type="1"/><contact-info><organisation><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></organisation><department><narrative>RDGS</narrative></department><person-name><narrative>Charles ORWOTHWUN</narrative></person-name><job-title><narrative>Investment Officer, AHFR1</narrative></job-title><telephone/><email>c.orwothwun@afdb.org</email><website>www.afdb.org</website><mailing-address><narrative>African Development Bank Group Headquarters Avenue Joseph Anoma 01 BP 1387 Abidjan 01, Côte d'Ivoire</narrative></mailing-address></contact-info><activity-scope code="5"/><recipient-country code="TZ"/><location><location-id vocabulary="G1" code="160263"/><name><narrative>Dar es salaam</narrative></name><administrative code="3053" vocabulary="G1" level="1"/><administrative code="33664" vocabulary="G1" level="2"/><point srsName="http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326"><pos>-6.82349 39.26951</pos></point><exactness code="1"/><location-class code="2"/><feature-designation code="PPL"/></location><sector vocabulary="1" code="32161"><narrative>Agro-industries</narrative></sector><country-budget-items vocabulary="1"><budget-item code="3.9.4" percentage="100"><description><narrative xml:lang="en">Industry - (investment in industry)</narrative></description></budget-item></country-budget-items><collaboration-type code="2"/><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2025-11-12"/><period-end iso-date="2026-02-12"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2025-11-12">4508500.172500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-02-12"/><period-end iso-date="2026-05-12"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-02-12">4508500.172500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-05-12"/><period-end iso-date="2026-08-12"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-05-12">4508500.172500</value></budget><budget type="1"><period-start iso-date="2026-08-12"/><period-end iso-date="2026-11-12"/><value currency="XDR" value-date="2026-08-12">4508500.172500</value></budget><capital-spend percentage="0.00"/><transaction afdb:finance-type-id="2000230031551"><transaction-type code="2"/><transaction-date iso-date="2025-11-12"/><value value-date="2025-11-12">18034000.69</value><provider-org ref="XM-DAC-46002"><narrative>African Development Bank</narrative></provider-org><receiver-org ref=""><narrative>Mohammed Enterprises Tanzania Ltd</narrative></receiver-org><flow-type code="20"/><finance-type code="421"/><aid-type code="C01" vocabulary="1"/><tied-status code="5"/></transaction><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/default/files/documents/environmental-and-social-assessments/eia_dindira_tea_estate_0.pdf" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Environmental Study</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><document-link url="https://www.afdb.org/sites/default/files/documents/projects-and-operations/tanzania_-psn_mohammed_enterprises_tanzania_limited_metl.pdf" format="application/pdf"><title><narrative>Appraisal Report</narrative></title><category code="A01"/><category code="A02"/><category code="A03"/><category code="A04"/><category code="A05"/><category code="A08"/><category code="A02"/><language code="en"/></document-link><document-link url="https://mapafrica.afdb.org/en/projects/46002-P-TZ-AAG-011" format="text/html"><title><narrative>Activity</narrative></title><category code="A12"/><language code="fr"/></document-link><conditions attached="false"><condition type="1"><narrative>Information cannot be disclosed.

&#13;
The package comprises three complementary lines of credit: a USD 200 million seven-year senior unsecured line of credit to support increased lending to MSMEs operating across the South African economy; a USD 100 million seven-year gender-focused line of credit dedicated to women-owned or women-led MSMEs; and a USD 10 million concessional line of credit from the African Climate Change Fund’s Adaptation Benefits Mechanism Financing Facility, as identified in the project document as ACFM, dedicated to women-owned or women-led small enterprises operating in the agriculture sector. The two main facilities include a two-year grace period.&#13;
&#13;
The financial package will be complemented by separately processed technical assistance consisting of up to USD 2 million from ACFM to strengthen the capacity and bankability of women-owned or women-led agricultural enterprises, and an AFAWA package of USD 0.9 million under We-Fi, comprising USD 150,000 in technical assistance and a USD 750,000 performance-based incentive.&#13;
&#13;
The borrower is FirstRand Bank Limited, one of South Africa’s leading financial institutions and a wholly owned subsidiary of FirstRand Limited. The financing will be channelled through FirstRand’s banking platforms, including its First National Bank franchise, which provides dedicated financial products and services to SMEs. The African Development Bank will enter into the relevant line-of-credit and grant agreements with FirstRand Bank, covering the use of proceeds, reporting, disbursement, environmental and social compliance, and performance requirements.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le Programme de financement de 310 millions USD en faveur de FirstRand Bank Limited est une opération non souveraine du secteur financier en Afrique du Sud, visant à élargir l’accès des micro, petites et moyennes entreprises aux financements de long terme, avec un ciblage important des entreprises détenues ou dirigées par des femmes.&#13;
&#13;
Le programme comprend trois lignes de crédit complémentaires : une ligne de crédit senior non garantie de 200 millions USD, d’une durée de sept ans, destinée à accroître les prêts aux MPME opérant dans l’économie sud-africaine ; une ligne de crédit de 100 millions USD, également d’une durée de sept ans et spécifiquement axée sur le genre, destinée aux MPME détenues ou dirigées par des femmes ; et une ligne de crédit concessionnelle de 10 millions USD provenant de l’ACFM, selon la dénomination utilisée dans le document, destinée aux petites entreprises agricoles détenues ou dirigées par des femmes. Les deux principales lignes de crédit comprennent un différé d’amortissement de deux ans.&#13;
&#13;
Le financement sera complété par des programmes d’assistance technique traités séparément, comprenant jusqu’à 2 millions USD de l’ACFM pour renforcer les capacités et la bancabilité des entreprises agricoles détenues ou dirigées par des femmes, ainsi qu’un programme AFAWA de 0,9 million USD financé au titre de We-Fi, composé de 150 000 USD d’assistance technique et d’une incitation basée sur la performance de 750 000 USD.&#13;
&#13;
L’emprunteur est FirstRand Bank Limited, l’une des principales institutions financières d’Afrique du Sud et une filiale détenue à 100 % par FirstRand Limited. Les ressources seront acheminées à travers les plateformes bancaires de FirstRand, notamment sa franchise First National Bank, qui propose des produits et services financiers spécifiquement destinés aux PME. La Banque africaine de développement conclura avec FirstRand Bank les accords relatifs aux lignes de crédit et aux dons, précisant l’utilisation des ressources, les conditions de décaissement, le reporting, la conformité environnementale et sociale et les exigences de performance.</narrative></description><description type="3"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project aims to increase access to affordable, long-term finance for MSMEs in South Africa, particularly women-owned and women-led enterprises, and support their growth, resilience and contribution to employment and inclusive economic development.&#13;
&#13;
More specifically, the financial package seeks to provide FirstRand Bank with the long-term liquidity required to expand its MSME lending portfolio; address financing gaps affecting women entrepreneurs; increase lending to women-owned agricultural businesses; improve the bankability and business capacity of targeted enterprises; and promote private-sector development, livelihood opportunities, agricultural production and job creation.&#13;
&#13;
The project also seeks to strengthen economic resilience by directing financing through FirstRand’s sustainability finance framework toward businesses with strong development and social-impact potential.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet vise à accroître l’accès des MPME sud-africaines à des financements abordables de long terme, en particulier pour les entreprises détenues ou dirigées par des femmes, afin de soutenir leur croissance, leur résilience et leur contribution à l’emploi et au développement économique inclusif.&#13;
&#13;
Plus spécifiquement, le programme de financement vise à fournir à FirstRand Bank les liquidités de long terme nécessaires pour développer son portefeuille de prêts aux MPME ; réduire les déficits de financement auxquels sont confrontées les entrepreneures ; accroître les prêts aux entreprises agricoles détenues par des femmes ; améliorer la bancabilité et les capacités de gestion des entreprises ciblées ; et promouvoir le développement du secteur privé, les moyens de subsistance, la production agricole et la création d’emplois.&#13;
&#13;
Le projet vise également à renforcer la résilience économique en orientant les financements, à travers le cadre de finance durable de FirstRand, vers des entreprises présentant un fort potentiel d’impact économique et social.</narrative></description><description type="4"><narrative xml:lang="en">The project has nationwide coverage in South Africa through FirstRand Bank’s banking network and SME-financing platforms. Its principal direct beneficiaries are micro, small and medium-sized enterprises operating in the South African economy, particularly enterprises that face limited access to medium- and long-term finance.&#13;
&#13;
A significant share of the financing is specifically targeted at women-owned and women-led MSMEs. Women entrepreneurs will benefit from the USD 100 million gender-focused line of credit, while women-owned or women-led small businesses operating in the agriculture sector will benefit from the USD 10 million concessional facility and the associated technical-assistance programme. The technical assistance will help these enterprises improve their financial management, business capacity and readiness to access bank financing.&#13;
&#13;
Other direct beneficiaries include FirstRand Bank and its SME-focused divisions, whose capacity to provide tailored financial solutions to underserved businesses will be expanded. The project will also benefit enterprises operating in economically underserved communities and sectors where access to long-term funding remains constrained.&#13;
&#13;
Indirect beneficiaries include employees and households supported by the financed businesses, agricultural producers and value-chain actors, consumers of agricultural goods, and the wider South African economy. Expected benefits include business growth, stronger enterprise resilience, increased employment and livelihood opportunities, improved access to agricultural products, and greater economic participation by women. The document does not provide a quantified target for the number of enterprises, jobs or individual beneficiaries.</narrative><narrative xml:lang="fr">Le projet a une couverture nationale en Afrique du Sud, grâce au réseau bancaire et aux plateformes de financement des PME de FirstRand Bank. Ses principaux bénéficiaires directs sont les micro, petites et moyennes entreprises opérant dans l’économie sud-africaine, en particulier celles dont l’accès aux financements à moyen et long termes reste limité.&#13;
&#13;
Une part importante du financement cible spécifiquement les MPME détenues ou dirigées par des femmes. Les entrepreneures bénéficieront de la ligne de crédit de 100 millions USD axée sur le genre, tandis que les petites entreprises du secteur agricole détenues ou dirigées par des femmes bénéficieront de la facilité concessionnelle de 10 millions USD et du programme d’assistance technique associé. Cette assistance les aidera à améliorer leur gestion financière, leurs capacités entrepreneuriales et leur préparation à l’accès au crédit bancaire.&#13;
&#13;
Les autres bénéficiaires directs comprennent FirstRand Bank et ses divisions spécialisées dans le financement des PME, dont la capacité à proposer des solutions financières adaptées aux entreprises insuffisamment desservies sera renforcée. Le projet bénéficiera également aux entreprises implantées dans des communautés et des secteurs économiques où l’accès aux financements de long terme demeure restreint.&#13;
&#13;
