Accra, March 31, – Afreximbank has closed a US$2 billion three-year Dual Tranche Syndicated Term Loan Facility, the largest in the Bank’s history, showcasing robust investor confidence.
Completed on March 9, 2026, the deal raised US$1.73 billion in dollars and €228 million in euros. Initially targeted at US$1.5 billion, the offer drew commitments of US$2.36 billion, prompting the Bank to scale to US$2 billion.
The proceeds will refinance existing obligations and support Afreximbank’s mandate to boost trade and economic integration across Africa.
Mr Chandi Mwenebungu, Afreximbank’s MD of Treasury and Markets, said:
“This is the largest syndicated facility ever for Afreximbank and reflects global investor confidence in our credit profile and strong market access.”
The facility united 31 lenders from Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, coordinated by Mashreqbank PSC, MUFG Bank Ltd., and Standard Chartered Bank, with Standard Chartered also acting as Documentation and Facility Agent.
