The African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) says it is targeting “billions of dollars” in funding deals during its 32nd Annual Meetings (AAM2025), slated to be held in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, from 25–27 June 2025.
This was disclosed in a statement shared with Naijaonpoint on Friday by Vincent Musumba, Manager, Communications and Events at Afreximbank.
According to the statement, the significant billion-dollar trade and investment deals to be facilitated by the bank include Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) and public-private partnerships.
“AAM2025 is expected to facilitate significant trade and investment deals, including Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) and public-private partnerships. The meetings are expected to catalyse billions of dollars in funding over the next 5–10 years for key strategic sectors,” the statement disclosed.
Professor Benedict Oramah, President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Afreximbank, remarked:
“AAM2025 comes at a pivotal time for Africa. As the continent confronts global uncertainties, it is doing so with renewed resolve. Following the successful 31st edition of AAM held in The Bahamas last year, we are back on the African continent for this year’s meetings, which are about catalysing practical action, building stronger institutions to strengthen trade integration and unlocking the full potential of African innovation. We thank H.E. Bola Ahmed Tinubu, President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, for his support.”
