This financial contribution, structured through mechanisms compliant with Islamic finance principles, is intended for four leading commercial banks to strengthen their intervention capacity vis-à-vis productive structures and private promoters.

This substantial envelope is distributed among several major national and sub-regional banking institutions. A first syndicated facility of up to 50 million euros has thus been granted to Afriland First Bank Cameroon by the Islamic Corporation for the Development of the Private Sector, reinforcing a historic partnership dedicated to supporting SMEs and women-led entrepreneurial initiatives. 


In parallel, specific credit lines have been granted to AFG Bank Cameroon to the tune of 20 million euros to extend its regional scope, to Commercial Bank Cameroon (CBC) for an amount of 10 million euros consolidating its corporate treasury portfolio, as well as to CCA Bank, beneficiary of 15 million euros to dynamize its local financing offer.

These new agreements enrich an already diversified global portfolio of multilateral commitments, testifying to the joint will of public authorities and the financial institution to stimulate inclusive growth. 


By equipping the banking system with additional resources, the intervention aims to lift liquidity constraints weighing on the productive apparatus, thereby enabling enterprises to assert themselves as the true engine of economic diversification and sustainable job creation.
