The African Development Fund, the concessional financing arm of the @AfDB_Group, has secured a record $11 billion from 43 Partners for its 17th Replenishment (ADF-17), the largest in the Fund’s history, despite severe global fiscal constraints and declining aid budgets.

Quotable quote from #ADF17 | @AfDBPresident Sidi Ould Tah, "The success of ADF-17 is a clear endorsement of this direction. To our Deputies, our donors, our African contributors, our partners, and our teams, both in capitals and here on the ground, thank you. Your leadership, perseverance, and trust made this outcome possible. Africa is ready. The African Development Bank Group is ready. Now, let's go to work. Together."

[African Development Bank Group @AfDB_Group]

Following the historic success of the 17th replenishment of the African Development Fund which mobilised a record $11 billion, @AfDB_Group President Sidi Ould Tah and Baroness Chapman convened the Africa Private Capital Mobilisation Day in London, bringing public and private partners together to scale coordinated private capital solutions for Africa’s development.

The discussions focus on how concessional finance, guarantees, co-financing and risk-sharing can work together to crowd in private investment at scale, lower the cost of capital and accelerate delivery.

[African Development Bank Group @AfDB_Group]

For over 50 years, the African Development Fund has fuelled economies in Africa.

It is more than a fund—it's a growth catalyst that builds comprehensive infrastructure, transforms economies, creates jobs, and develops supply chains locally and internationally.

Historic milestone for Africa’s development.

The African Development Fund has mobilised a record $11 billion for #ADF17, the largest replenishment in its history.

This marks a shift from aid to investment, with unprecedented African contributions, new large-scale concessional co-financing partnerships, and a stronger focus on crowding in private capital to deliver impact at scale.

This is a turning point for development finance, with Africa as a co-investor in its future.

@XOctomore @EricMassaud @EmmanuelMacron La pollution domestique due aux modes de cuisson charbon et bois a des impacts humanitaires (décès prématurés) et environnementaux (déforestation massive). Elle est associée à des facteurs de pauvreté importants, particulièrement en milieu rural. (2)
