<\/a> CDC Group is earmarking some USD 1 bn for<\/strong> infrastructure and finance<\/strong> investments in Africa<\/strong> in 2021<\/strong>, with a particular focus on Egypt<\/strong>, Ethiopia, Kenya, and Nigeria, CEO Nick O\u2019Donohoe told Bloomberg<\/a> in an interview. This will be roughly what it invested in Africa in 2020, he said.<\/p>\n

Where\u2019s the money going?<\/strong> CDC \u2014 the UK\u2019s development finance institution \u2014 is primarily focusing on climate-related and tech-based investments, but is \u201ca big investor in infrastructure and will continue to be,\u201d O\u2019Donohoe said. CDC also sees \u201cmore attention\u201d being given to healthcare after going through the pandemic, but expects these investments to be more concentrated in the private sector.<\/p>\n

CDC has already made its mark on Egypt\u2019s healthcare sector:<\/strong> Along with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and Development Partners International, CDC last year raised USD 750 mn<\/a> \u2014 of which USD 250 mn was earmarked for Egypt<\/a> \u2014 to invest in the pharma industry across Africa through a shared investment platform. The platform\u2019s first investment was the acquisition of Egypt\u2019s Adwia Pharma in November<\/a>.<\/p>\n

ALSO FROM THE CONTINENT-<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nigeria\u2019s number one lender is looking at Egypt: <\/strong>Access Bank is looking to take advantage of the new African trade agreement and make an entrance into Egypt\u2019s banking sector, the bank said in an online presentation cited by Bloomberg<\/a>. Egypt is among eight markets identified by the bank as \u201chigh potential,\u201d CEO Herbert Wigwe said in a conference call last week, adding that the bank will look to \u201cleverage the benefits of the African Continental Trade Area.\u201d Access Bank has a presence in 11 countries outside Nigeria, including Ghana, Kenya and Sierra Leone.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the strategy? <\/strong>The bank plans to open offices in some markets and partner with established banks or use digital platforms in others. It gave no country-specific information but said it would provide more details \u201cin another month or two, once the arrangements have been put in place.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
