What does a post-aid future look like for Africa?

Our CEO’s recent op-ed for @wef makes a clear case: Africa doesn’t need more aid—it needs more agency. And African Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) are stepping up to lead.

By mobilizing domestic capital, driving infrastructure development, and creating investable opportunities, African financial institutions like AFC are proving that the continent can chart its own course on its own terms.
