How can African financial institutions mobilize the continent's estimated $4 trillion in domestic assets to finance infrastructure?

At UBA’s recent whitepaper launch, "Banking on Africa's Future: Unlocking Capital and Partnerships for Sustainable Growth,” we explored this critical question with insights from Harvard Business School Professor Marlous van Waijenburg and Group Chairman Tony O. Elumelu.

The discussion centered on a framework for rethinking development finance: African banks can serve as sophisticated intermediaries, creating structures where domestic capital attracts international co-investment through blended finance mechanisms and strategic partnerships.

Our Executive Director Sola Yomi-Ajayi shared how projects like Tanzania's Julius Nyerere Hydropower and the Dangote Refinery demonstrates what becomes possible when financial architecture enables African institutions to structure multi-billion-dollar transactions.

The whitepaper presents pathways for moving from external dependency toward domestic capital mobilization, amplified through aligned global partnerships that create multiplier effects for infrastructure at scale.

Watch the full event recap and download the whitepaper to engage with innovative approaches to capital mobilization and the role African financial institutions can play in financing continental transformation.
