With a total authorized capital of USD 20 billion, including USD 10 billion subscribed and USD 5 billion paid-in capital, the Bank enjoys a strong shareholders’ support, an outstanding financial strength and a remarkable governance, since it operates exclusively in non-shareholder Sub-Saharan African countries.
