President Kagame met IFC Managing Director 

President Kagame met with Makhtar Diop, the Managing Director of the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and co-organizer of the Africa CEO Forum 2024 underway in Kigali. 

They discussed the existing good collaboration in key growth-driving sectors between Rwanda and IFC, a member of the World Bank and the largest global development institution focused on the private sector. 

IFC’s work in Rwanda is focused on promoting sustainable markets and private sector development across four priority sectors: affordable housing, agribusiness, inclusive finance, and sustainable infrastructure. 

IFC has been additionally supporting Rwanda to develop a new life sciences park as the country solidifies itself as a leader in Africa’s vaccine and pharmaceutical development.

IFC is also working with partners to strengthen the country’s grain market, water infrastructure and lending to SMEs. (End)
