Haytham ElMaayergi, Executive Vice President of @afreximbank, shared three powerful messages during his Special Remarks on financing Africa's digital and economic transformation today. 🏦 "First, digital is the new physical - in the 21st century, a digital payment rail is as essential as a paved road. Without it, trade stands still. Second, integration is non-negotiable. We must move from digital islands to digital continents. No one country can do this alone.

He explored how strategic financing, from Advisory and Capital Markets to Digital Banking, is the essential fuel needed to move beyond "digital islands" and build a unified economic continent. #InclusiveFinTechForum #IFF2026 #Afreximbank #InclusiveFinTechForum #IFF2026 #Afreximbank
