Check out my op-ed in today's @FT about the need for credible reform in #Zimbabwe to encourage foreign investment. Timely in light of passing of #Mugabe. Many say things have gotten worse in Zim after his removal from power. Time to act is now. Investors and govts want to help!

Today is pub day for “A Daring Enterprise”! The book examines how a US govt-backed investment fund navigated revolution, economic crisis, and political challenges to almost double US taxpayer’s money in #Egypt and what it means for US foreign policy.

Highly recommended read from EAEF's Chairman and Co-Chair of @WorldResources with insight into how the Egyptian-American Enterprise Fund's public-private model can scaled up to meet urgently needed #climate financing for developing countries

Very nice lunch with my successor @fredhochberg who chaired @EximBankUS for 8 years. A real talent who did a great job! Biden administration would be wise to recruit Fred to a leadership role in Gov

USAID is proud of the results published in the recent impact report from @EAEFund- the most successful enterprise fund to date- which demonstrates the power of the private sector to improve development outcomes and the strong investment opportunity in #Egypt post-pandemic.

Large swathes of #Zimbabwe expected to suffer from high degree of food insecurity over the coming months. Agriculture sector decimated by drought and failures of Command Agriculture, while government struggles to pay for grain imports

[Cornelius Queen @Cornelius_Queen]

Excellent comparative analysis on the reform agendas of #Ethiopia and #Zimbabwe. A senior diplo official recently noted that if Zim would commit to a credible and speedy reform agenda like Abiy, it could open opportunities for engagement and financing from int'l community.
