EIB

The European Investment Bank has operated in Africa since 1965. Since then, the EU bank has invested more than €60 billion in over 50 African countries, supporting infrastructure projects, innovative firms and renewable energy schemes, the public sector and private companies from microenterprises to the largest multinationals. The EIB is a key part of the EU toolbox that for decades has helped make the partnership between these two continents stronger.

With its Climate Bank Roadmap and the goal to support EUR 1 trillion in green investments by 2030, the EIB Group can make a crucial contribution to supporting renewable energy, energy efficiency and electricity networks and strengthen security of energy supply across Africa.

EIB Global is the EIB Group's specialised arm devoted to increasing the impact of international partnerships and development finance, and a key partner in Global Gateway. We aim to support €100 billion of investment by the end of 2027, around one third of the overall target of this EU initiative. With Team Europe, EIB Global fosters strong, focused partnerships, alongside fellow development finance institutions and civil society. EIB Global brings the Group closer to local people, companies and institutions through our offices around the world.
