This year's Africa Investment Forum AIF Market Days, held in Rabat in November, secured 15.3bn in investor commitments across 39 bankable projects.
While this marks a sharp contraction from the 29.5bn in investor pledges announced in 2024, organisers said that the share of investment-ready projects presented in boardrooms had increased from 81 to 95.
The event drew participants from nearly 80 countries. Over three days, more than 2,000 delegates - representing private capital providers, international investment and commercial banks, multilateral development finance institutions, entrepreneurs and government representatives - explored project structuring, mobilising capital and women's access to finance, among other topics.
