Deutsche Bank in Africa

 

Deutsche Bank has been successfully engaged in Africa for several decades, operating a branch in Johannesburg along with representative offices in Lagos and Cairo. Over this period, our bank has developed significant expertise in African markets and has substantially contributed to the development of infrastructure on the continent as well as to the investment activities of companies.

 

With an extensive network of correspondent banks in more than 30 African countries, Deutsche Bank ensures that its corporate clients can smoothly conduct trade financing. Furthermore, we structure and arrange financing for states and their institutions, banks, multilateral financing banks, and companies. This opens up access for many clients to global capital markets as well as alternative financing sources. We are committed to increasing our engagement in sustainable projects in the future.

 

Our product offering includes not only traditional letter of credit and guarantee business but also capital market transactions such as bond issuance, emerging market financing, and structured export financing. In most of these product areas, Deutsche Bank is among the market leaders.

About SUNFarming

 

Since its foundation in 2004, SUNfarming GmbH has covered the entire project development and EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) value chain: starting from planning, development, financing and construction, as well as the monitoring and maintenance of solar parks and associated concepts like e-mobility and agrophotovoltaics (Food & Energy). Our international team, composed of experienced business professionals, engineers, and technicians, has successfully implemented projects with a total capacity of more than 600 MWp. SUNfarming undertakes the technical operational management for over 320 MWp of these installations, both domestically and internationally.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In Africa, SUNfarming focuses on Food & Energy installations. Food & Energy ensures effective food production while simultaneously providing a sustainable energy supply through photovoltaics. The goal is to invest in installations of at least 30 MWp that include integrated training in the fields of PV, batteries, and e-mobility. Bio-vegetables, eggs, and fish are produced between and under the modules, coupled with local marketing. For every MWp, between 500 to 1000 jobs are created over 10 years, and food is produced for 2500 to 5000 people. SUNfarming is active across Africa, with a focus on the member states of the G20 initiative "Compact with Africa."

Commerzbank boasts a long-standing tradition on the African continent. Since the bank's founding in 1870, we have been promoting trade with Africa and actively advising our clients on investments in the region. Our representatives in Cairo, Lagos, Addis Ababa, Johannesburg, Luanda, and Abidjan have many years of in-depth knowledge and excellent local insights. Additionally, our clients benefit from a unique network of correspondent banks in over 30 countries across Africa, playing a crucial role in trade financing across all major trade corridors.

 

Based on this foundation, we can facilitate trade activities close to our customers in nearly every African country – offering a comprehensive range of cash services, trade services, banking, and market products in line with Commerzbank’s global settlement standards. We provide professional advice and support, especially to corporate clients, including taking over short-term export risks and providing long-term ECA-backed financing.

 

Beyond foreign trade, Commerzbank supports the development of the financial sector in many African countries as an alternative to its own operational presence. Many African banks value it as a first-class partner and advisor for trade finance and cash management solutions, foreign exchange products, and ALM solutions.
