African Development Bank’s Affirmative Finance Action for Women in Africa
(#AFAWA) is #InvestingInWomen, accelerating Africa’s progress toward
gender-inclusive economic growth. Africa’s women entrepreneurs face an estimated
$42 billion financing gap compared to men. Across the continent, there’s a
misperception that women are not suitable candidates for loans – a lack of
collateral and finance savvy were used as justification for turning
#WomenEntrepreneurs down for financing. In fact numerous studies have shown that
women in #Africa, as in many places worldwide, are a better credit risk for
microfinance than men, are more trustworthy - and by a wide statistical margin
#women produce higher repayment rates than men. More from Dr Beth Dunford, Vice
President, Agriculture, Human and Social Development at the African Development

Before the #COVID19 pandemic, women-owned businesses in sub-Saharan #Africa
faced a daunting $42 billion funding gap. Post-pandemic, these challenges
have only intensified. Despite making up nearly 70% of the agricultural
workforce, women receive just 7% of investments. In our latest blog post by
Joy V. Kendi and Wanjiru Kamau, we delve into the newly launched Africa
Gender Bonds toolkit, developed in collaboration with UN Women, British
International Investment, and the FSD Network. This resource serves as a
guide for transforming capital markets to support #women in #Africa. The blog
also spotlights the Jasiri Bond, NMB Bank Plc’s first publicly listed gender
bond in sub-Saharan Africa. Oversubscribed by 197%, 97% of the loans from
this bond went to women, unlocking the potential of entire communities. ✍

Women are the backbone of Africa’s economy most especially in the mining
sector. Their resilience, innovation, and hard work drive growth and
development across the continent. From leading mining businesses to
sustaining households and communities, women play an indispensable role in
shaping Africa's future. Empowering and investing in women in mining is not
just an ethical imperative but a catalyst for sustainable economic progress.
Let's continue to support and amplify the contributions of women in the
mining sector to build a stronger, more inclusive Africa. #genderequality

The challenges facing women entrepreneurs in South Africa underscore the
urgency of gender-sensitive financial solutions. From the persistent digital
financial inclusion gap to the disproportionate impact of the COVID-19
pandemic on women-owned SMEs, it’s clear that more tailored support is
needed. AFAWA addresses challenges like these by collaborating with financial
institutions to create gender-smart investing strategies and building the
capacity of women entrepreneurs. AFAWA’s Guarantee for Growth program also
helps de-risk lending for financial institutions, making it easier for
women-led businesses to access the capital they need. This isn’t just about
closing gaps; it’s about empowering women to drive sustainable economic
growth across the continent. African Development Bank Group The Banking

The debt crisis in #Africa is a complex issue with deep historical roots.
However, there is a clear and actionable solution-empowering women. We
recognise that bridging the financial gap through innovative measures such as
#Genderbonds is crucial. Increasing women's participation in #manufacturing
and #agriculture can significantly boost national revenues and enhance
#eonomicstability. Additionally, gender-responsive budgeting is essential to
ensure that the unique needs of women are effectively addressed. 🔗Read more

Women entrepreneurs operating in the informal sector in Africa encounter
significant challenges in accessing credit and insurance. However, due to
their resilience, they play a critical role in driving economic activity and
supporting the livelihoods of their families. By providing them with the
right support, such as microfinance, microinsurance and digital services, we
can unlock their full potential and help them achieve even greater success.

#GenderInclusiveFinance and #WomenMSMEs Women-owned MSMEs are not just
businesses; they are the backbone of vibrant economies, innovative

contributions, women entrepreneurs face unique barriers, including access to
capital, financial literacy, and societal norms that often leave them on the

In the words of Dr. Akinwumi Adesina: "When women win, Africa wins!" - I can
underline this statement very much. I believe that diversity is a driver of
innovation. Therefore I am happy to support a couple of female founded
startups and venture funds. Follow me on supporting women in Africa and
around the globe. #impactinvesting #femalepower #africarising

Africa's women entrepreneurs face a staggering $42 billion financing gap,
despite their significant contributions to our economies. In #Nigeria,
approximately 41% of the country’s businesses are led by women, and nearly 23
million women run micro-businesses. Yet, they receive only 10% of commercial
loans - a disparity mirrored across sub-Saharan Africa. At the African
Development Bank Group, we're changing this narrative through initiatives
like the Affirmative Finance Action for Women in Africa (#AFAWA). We're not
challenging barriers; we're building bridges to financial inclusion. Why?
Because empowering women empowers entire communities. Studies show that
African women reinvest up to 90% of their income in family and community
welfare, compared to 40% for men. Imagine the transformative power if we
fully support women's businesses. By the end of this year, AFAWA is expected
to increase the total amount of approved funds from $1.7 to $2 billion to
support up to 30,000 women-owned small and medium-sized enterprises. Women
are not just bankable - they're catalysts for economic transformation. I
witnessed this potential firsthand meeting young innovator, Amina, founder of
Rumer. Her blockchain platform is revolutionizing Nigeria's livestock
industry, from operational metrics to access to finance solutions. Amina
embodies the innovation and resilience of Africa's women entrepreneurs. In
the words of Dr. Akinwumi A. Adesina, when women win, Africa wins!
