The G7 Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) has announced it would invest the sum of $80 billion in Africa’s private sector for the next five years, in a bid to support post-pandemic economic growth.

This was disclosed in a statement by the African Development Bank (AfDB) on Monday. DFIs made the announcement alongside the International Finance Corporation (IFC) of the AfDB, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), and the European Investment Bank.

The G7 DFI group consists of CDC, Proparco (France), Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and Japan Bank for International Cooperation, DFC (US), FinDev Canada, DEG (Germany) and CDP (Italy).

UK Minister for Africa, James Duddridge, disclosed the UK would proudly back the commitment, citing the investment will create jobs, boost economic growth, help tackle climate change and fight poverty, as it also comes at a crucial time as the continent rebuilds its economies, severely impacted by COVID-19.

Werner Hoyer, President of the European Investment Bank (EIB) also welcomed the institution’s support for investing in Africa saying: “Last year, the EU Bank’s engagement in Africa, as part of Team Europe, represented the largest ever support for climate action and investment in fragile states in 55 years of EIB operations on the continent.”

“We stand ready to cooperate further with African and multilateral partners to tackle both COVID-19 and accelerate the green transition in Africa,” Hoyer added.

He added the partnership would provide financing and will work with partners to help create the right conditions to bring more private investment to Africa.
