African infrastructure funding specialist, the Africa Finance Corporation (AFC), announced on Tuesday that it had successfully closed its largest ever debt facility. This is a $1.16-billion syndicated loan, which had attracted new lenders from Asia, Europe and the Middle East. The AFC’s target had been $1-billion, but the facility had been upsized because it had been oversubscribed by 49%. The syndicated loan has a period of three years, and its success highlights the confidence of global investors in the AFC.
