📰 CDG Global Development Brief – Issue 02 is out
This week’s focus: the US has made its visa bond programme for business and tourist visas permanent — up to $20,000, affecting 30 African countries. A tangible new hurdle for business travellers and delegations, coming right after last week’s AGOA uncertainty.
Also covered: Flutterwave’s bank acquisition in East Africa, a $35 million AfDB package to support Senegal’s fiscal reforms, and an €80 million EBID facility to boost SME lending across ten West African countries. Plus current tender and funding deadlines for organisations and companies.
For anyone working across Africa in business or development.
