–\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Largest capital increase in the Bank’s history signals a united front by shareholders<\/p>\n

At an extraordinary shareholders\u2019 meeting today in Abidjan, Governors of the African Development Bank, representing shareholders from 80 countries, approved a landmark $115 billion increase in capital for the continent\u2019s foremost financial institution.<\/p>\n

The capital increase, the largest in the history of the African Development Bank since its establishment in\u00a01964<\/a>, is a remarkable show of confidence by shareholders.<\/p>\n

With the approved increase, the capital of the Bank will more than double from $93 billion to $208 billion. This solidifies the Bank\u2019s leadership on development financing for the continent.<\/p>\n

The boost in capital ensures that the Bank will continue to maintain a sterling AAA rating, all stable, from the top rating agencies.<\/p>\n

The African Development Bank launched discussions on the request for a general capital increase two years ago, to help fast track the delivery of its\u00a0High 5<\/em>\u00a0development strategies, the sustainable development goals and the African Union\u2019s\u00a0Agenda\u00a02063.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the opening ceremony, the President of Ivory Coast, Alassane Ouattara said: \u201cthe integration of the continent\u2019s priorities into the High 5s indicates that the African Development Bank group is a strategic partner for African governments.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the past four years, the Bank\u2019s High 5 priorities have delivered impressive results on the ground, including helping to connect 16 million people to electricity, 70 million people provided with agricultural technologies to boost food security; 9 million\u00a0people given access to finance through private sector investee companies; 55 million people provided improved access to transport services; and 31 million people with access to water and sanitation.<\/p>\n

According to African Development Bank President, Akinwumi Adesina,\u00a0 \u201cWe have achieved a lot, yet there is still a long way to go. Our responsibility is to very quickly help improve the quality of life for the people of Africa. This general capital increase represents a very strong commitment of\u00a0all our shareholders to see better quality projects that will significantly have an impact on the lives of the people in Africa –\u00a0 in cities, in rural communities, and for millions of youth and women.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the new general capital increase, the Bank plans to do more, with the following expected results: 105 million people to have access to new or improved electricity connections; 244 million people to benefit from improvements in agriculture; 15 million people\u00a0to benefit from investee projects; 252 million people to benefit from improved access to transport; and 128 million people to benefit from improved access to water and sanitation.<\/p>\n

Adesina noted that \u201cthe Bank will continue its leadership role on infrastructure development, strengthening regional integration, helping to realize the ambitions of the African Continental Free Trade Area, supporting fragile states to build resilience, ensuring sustainable\u00a0debt management, addressing climate change and boosting private sector investments. We will do a lot more. This is a historic moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cI applaud the shareholders for their strong confidence in the Bank and for boosting support for Africa\u2019s development\u201d.<\/p>\n

President Adesina, Bank senior vice-president Charles Boamah and vice president for Finance and Bank Chief Finance Officer Bajabulile Swazi Tshabalala, will be available for interviews and further comment about the increase.<\/p>\n
