CREATING INTRA-AFRICA
BUSINESS CORRIDORS,
AND CORRIDORS WITH THE
REST OF THE WORLD
With its in-depth knowledge
of the markets and socio-
economic specif icities of
its countries of presence,
the Group supports African
companies’ growth and actively
contributes to the development
of intra-African trade and trade
with the rest of the world. To
this end, it relies on various
structures such as the Africa
Development Club.
The Africa Development Club
is a business networking
platform that brings together
economic communities
operating in Africa. It provides
access to information, training,
services and expertise to
support the dynamics of
making connections, identifying
investment opportunities and
sharing experiences.
The Club counts 10 chapters
in Africa, with 10,000 members
and having organized over
25,000 business meetings since
its creation. In 2022, the Club
organized several multi-sector
missions in both digital and
on-site formats. These brought
together many participants
from 15 African countries, with
the aim of supporting African
companies’ development.
In addition, the Group
has signed a partnership
agreement with Nigeria’s Union
Bank for the development of
pan-African trade and new joint
commercial opportunities for
their respective customers,
aimed at supporting trade
f inance and investment
corridors between Nigeria
and all the countries in which
the Group operates. The two
banks are thus committed
to supporting the growth
of African economies by
supporting intra-African trade
and investment, and promoting
sustainable and inclusive
development.
