Sustainable agricultural practices will not only enhance nutrition and food security on the continent, but also create much needed employment and economic growth. Our CIB agricultural sector experts tailor-make and structure innovative funding and hedging solutions to support the processing and distribution segments of the agricultural value chain.
Our experts in the agricultural industry understand the many challenges faced by the industry in Africa, such as the rapid population growth, climate change, lack of sustainable funding and increase in urbanisation.
*Over 60% of the world’s unused arable land right now, is in Africa. Small-scale agriculture accounts for about 80% of food production and nearly 70% of all jobs in Africa. We believe that by empowering the agricultural value chain with innovative funding solutions and sound advice, the agricultural sector can generate much-needed foreign direct investment (fdi) on the continent.
We do this through our extensive in-country banking network and representative offices in key jurisdictions in Africa.
