In 2025 EIB Global channelled over €3bn into Africa, backing renewable power and grids, sustainable transport corridors, climate-resilience works (flood, water, cities), SME finance and digital transformation. Deals increasingly blend concessional and market instruments to de-risk projects and attract private capital. The steady scale acts as a catalytic “anchor” for investors and signals Africa’s deeper integration into structured global capital flows, with 2026 focus on growing private participation.
