The African Agriculture and Trade Investment Fund (AATIF) is an international fund launched by, among others, the European Commission and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its mission is to enhance agricultural production and service provision in impoverished contexts in Africa<\/strong>. It finances initiatives to provide equitable employment and income for farmers, entrepreneurs and workers; to increase productivity, production and local added value; and to enhance knowledge transfer.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n<\/section>\n\n

NSIA Bank<\/p>\n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n

\n
\n\n
\n\n

AATIF has taken out a \u20ac17.5 million senior credit line with NSIA – Banque C\u00f4te d’Ivoire (“NSIA”), one of C\u00f4te d’Ivoire’s leading commercial banks. The loan to NSIA will support agricultural campaigns in countries such as Senegal, C\u00f4te d’Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Guinea-Bissau, Mali and Niger<\/strong>. In addition to the initial disbursement of the AATIF loan, the bank received additional funding from Proparco that will be applied to small and medium-sized enterprises in C\u00f4te d’Ivoire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NSIA group works mainly in West Africa and operates in 12 countries<\/strong> – Togo, Benin, Burkina Faso, C\u00f4te d’Ivoire, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Chad and Senegal – and four currency areas (West African Economic and Monetary Union, Central African Economic and Monetary Community, Guinea and Mauritania).<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n\n

Social and Environmental Management System<\/p>\n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n

\n
\n\n
\n\n

In 2019 NSIA approved the Social and Environmental Management System, thanks to the hiring of a supervisor, a consultant and an employee with expertise in social and environmental issues<\/strong>. The bank received technical assistance from the AATIF to train and educate staff on this new system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The individual training started in September 2019 and was successfully completed in February 2020. The system implementation was accompanied by bank-wide training sessions and the development of associated tools to be used by different departments<\/strong>. As a result, the bank has improved its credit assessment process by adding social and environmental criteria at all stages of lending.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
