Afreximbank Addresses Africa's $130 Billion Infrastructure Investment Gap
Africa requires over $130 billion annually to meet its infrastructure needs, impacting trade and industrialization. Afreximbank is facilitating this through innovative financing models and public-private partnerships (PPPs).

Africa faces a pressing need for over $130 billion in annual infrastructure investment to support trade and industrialization. As traditional public financing models become strained due to rising debt and fiscal pressures, Afreximbank is advancing new financing approaches, including public-private partnerships (PPPs), to mobilize private capital and technical expertise.
The Afreximbank Project Preparation Facility (APPF) aids in transforming project ideas into bankable entities, improving feasibility, and compliance. Key infrastructure projects include the Julius Nyerere Hydropower Station in Tanzania and industrial zones in Benin, Togo, and Gabon. Additionally, the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) emphasizes the necessity of efficient transport networks and integrated systems for successful intra-African trade.
