Multinational - Eastern and Southern African Trade and Development Bank (PTA Bank)

The Project is a support to strengthen the balance sheet of the Eastern and Southern African Trade and Development Bank (PTA Bank). This will enhance the bank’s ability to mobilize financial resources from local and international capital markets to meet a growing demand for funding in the TFTA, which includes some of the fastest growing economies in Africa. In addition, the project will facilitate the subscription of new Class B shares in the PTA Bank. This should play a catalytic role in encouraging other non-regional shareholders to boost the bank's capitalization.
