African businesses grow stronger when financing is aligned with the currencies in which they operate and earn. Today, @IFC_org and @myaccessbank signed an up to $500M equivalent framework to scale local currency financing for MSMEs, agribusiness, housing, and infrastructure across #Africa. This partnership will help deepen local currency markets and support sustainable private sector growth across the continent. #ACF26

Africa’s next phase of growth will be built through partnership — with countries and businesses investing in one another’s success. I was delighted to open this year’s @africaceoforum in Kigali. Over the next two days, #ACF2026 will bring together leaders from across the continent to discuss how Africa can scale growth through investment, infrastructure, and stronger policy frameworks.

Over the next quarter century, Sub‑Saharan Africa’s working‑age population will grow by more than 600 million people. By 2050, the region will need to create roughly 25 million jobs each year. No serious strategy for #Africa’s future can ignore that arithmetic. #Health manufacturing can be part of the answer. Read more in my latest blog ➡️wrld.bg/3IM750YYxvO #AIM2030

I am pleased to announce the launch of @IFC_org’s inaugural Trade Finance Synthetic Securitization which will help mobilize more private capital for trade, businesses, and jobs in emerging markets. This comes at an opportune time as leaders gather for #ACF2026 to discuss scaling investment across Africa. Built on a $500M portfolio of trade assets, the structure can mobilize private capital at up to a 1:19 ratio, bringing investors into markets where financing gaps remain the highest — including low-income and fragile states.

Just touched down in Kigali for @africaceoforum, co-hosted by @WorldBankGroup and @jeune_afrique. This edition brings together 2,500+ leaders focused on scaling Africa’s growth and investment potential. The continent’s future competitiveness will depend on stronger regional integration, expanded trade, and building businesses that can scale into pan-African and global champions — creating jobs and deeper markets across the continent. Looking forward to the conversations! #ACF2026

Always a pleasure to exchange with H.E. President William Ruto, co-host of the #AfricaForward Summit in #Nairobi. The @WorldBankGroup stands ready to deepen its collaboration with local banks and expand affordable housing opportunities in #Kenya.

At today’s health roundtable at #AFS, I joined Kenya’s Health CS Aden Duale, @AFD_France CEO Christophe Lecourtier, President @JDMahama & others to discuss sustainable, coordinated financing for Africa’s health sector. At @IFC_org, we believe country-led reforms & national health compacts can strengthen regulation, procurement, medicines agencies & cross-border trade — creating more resilient health systems. Through #AIM2030, a new @WorldBankGroup & @AfricanUnion initiative, we’re partnering with African governments, investors & manufacturers to help double Africa’s production of essential healthcare products by 2030 — driving resilience, jobs & skills across the continent.

When small businesses gain access to digital payments, they grow, and so do jobs. See how IFC and Cashi are making this a reality in Chad and across Central Africa. Watch the full interview with Cashi CEO Tarneem Saeed, and learn more: wrld.bg/i9eO50YWhOC

Proud to join the @AfricanUnion Commission, @WorldBank colleagues, and government partners at the high-level #AIM2030 breakfast focused on turning commitment into action for Africa’s health future. COVID-19 exposed a hard truth: #Africa’s dependence on global supply chains for medicines and health products left millions vulnerable during crises. #AIM2030 is about delivery — expanding access to affordable medical products through stronger local manufacturing and more resilient health systems across the continent. By mobilizing private capital, strengthening regional value chains, and advancing practical solutions, we can help drive greater self-reliance, industrialization, and job creation in Africa’s health sector. This effort also supports the World Bank Group’s goal of reaching 1.5 billion people with quality health services by 2030.

A $2.5T trade finance gap keeps small businesses from accessing global markets. See how IFC is helping close this divide, enabling SMEs in emerging markets to import goods, export products, and create jobs: wrld.bg/54rh50YUG7b
