Speaking about the Awards, Omar Ben Yedder, Chair of the Awards Committee, also noted the growing role of Development Finance Institutions. “Over the years, we have seen the evolving role of DFIs," he said. "They are playing an important role in structuring transactions and in catalysing development, often filling the gaps in areas that are under-served or under-represented. "That said, the finance gap in infrastructure, trade and climate finance mean that the banking sector as a whole will need to be even better capitalised. But looking back at the 18 years of the Awards, it is night and day when you look at the size of our domestic banks and the transactions they are capable of structuring.” The nominees for the African Banker Awards 2024 are as follows: Bank of the Year Banker of the Year Trade Finance Award Deal of the Year - Debt Deal of the Year - Equity Infrastructure Deal of the Year Agriculture Deal of the Year DFI of the Year Fintech of the Year SME Bank of the Year Sustainable Bank of the Year Distributed byAfrican Media Agency.on behalf of IC Publications For further details regarding the Awards, please feel free to reach out toawards@icpublications.com.
