The president of EBID, Dr. Donkor, commended India EXIM Bank for its continued commitment to partnering with the ECOWAS subregion to realise development projects geared towards improving outcomes for vulnerable populations.

He underscored the need to expand investments in key sectors such as energy, health, transportation, agriculture and infrastructure, among others, to drive economic growth in West Africa while building resilience in an increasingly volatile global setting.

Vartia commented, “This marks a key milestone in our continued commitment to support developmental projects in Africa.”

India Exim Bank has a long-standing relationship with EBID dating back to the first credit line, which was extended in 2006. Since then, the bank has extended six facilities aggregating $1.14 billion to EBID to support the export of goods and services from India to Africa.
