The Board of Directors of the African Development Bank
approved yesterday a Trade Finance package of US$200 million comprising an
unfunded risk-sharing facility and a trade facilitation loan, to support
Ecobank Transnational Incorporated’s (ETI) trade finance activities in Africa.
The AfDB’s support will enable Ecobank to enhance its trade
finance confirmation capabilities, avail medium-term liquidity support to ETI’s
subsidiaries to provide appropriate trade finance to African small and medium
enterprises (SMEs) and local corporates, and demonstrate appetite for Africa
risk.
