AAMFI welcomes African Multilateral Financial Institutions’ Preferred Creditor Status

The Alliance of African Multilateral Financial Institutions (AAMFI) held the third meeting of its Governing Council on the margins of the African Union Mid-Year Coordination Meeting, held in Accra, Ghana, during which it welcomed the endorsement of the Alliance by the African Union (AU) Ministers of Finance and Central Bank Governors at their 7th Ordinary Session of the African Union Specialized Technical Committee (STC) on Finance, Monetary Affairs, Economic Planning, and Integration, in Tunis, Tunisia.

The STC Ministerial declaration and decisions reflected the pivotal role of African Multilateral Financial Institutions (AMFIs) in the continent’s financial architecture. AAMFI received strong support from the meeting and was recognized by the Specialized Technical Committee as crucial for strengthening the continental financial framework and advancing the African Union’s Agenda 2063. The Ministers and Central Bank Governors reaffirmed the vital role of African Multilateral Financial Institutions in continental development and committed to enhancing the capital and credit ratings of AMFIs to mobilize essential funding for Africa’s growth.
