About us
The African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) is the foremost Pan-African multilateral financial institution devoted to financing and promoting intra- and extra-African trade. The Bank was established in October 1993 by African governments, African private and institutional investors, and non-African investors. Its two basic constitutive documents are the Establishment Agreement, which gives it the status of an international organization, and the Charter, which governs its corporate structure and operations.

Boosting Supply Chain Finance for Developing Economies At the 2024 World Bank Group Annual Meetings, Afreximbank President, Prof Benedict Oramah and other leaders from Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) convened to address the critical need for supply chain finance (SCF) expansion in developing economies, especially for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). Although SCF is a fast-growing trade finance segment, many SMEs in these regions, especially in Africa, face barriers like weak legal frameworks, high costs, and limited access to local banks. With renewed commitment from African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank), MDBs, governments, and financial institutions, this collaboration aims to enhance SCF access and promote trade, financial inclusion, and economic growth for SMEs across emerging markets including in Africa.
