    Description
    Objectives

    The fund will finance infrastructure projects in the sectors of energy and power, transportation, environmental infrastructure, social infrastructure and telecommunications infrastructure in African countries.

    The fund will make 8-10 investments predominantly in greenfield projects, but may also invest in selected secondary projects at the operational stage. The fund will generally seek to acquire significant minority or majority stakes of the junior/equity capital in each project with strong corporate governance rights to be able to monitor and manage project risks.

    Environmental aspects
    Procurement

    The fund’s operational guidelines will provide for environmental and social due diligence of all projects, according to guidelines acceptable to the EIB.


    The fund will be required to ensure that implementation of the underlying projects is done in accordance with the EIB Guide to Procurement.
