Minister of Economic Affairs Heads to Morocco to Participate in the Africa Investment Forum

The Minister of Economic Affairs and Development, Mr. Abdallah Souleimane Cheikh Sidia, departed Nouakchott yesterday evening, Tuesday, heading to the Kingdom of Morocco to participate in the Africa Investment Forum (AIF), one of the most important continental platforms dedicated to stimulating investments and supporting the financing of projects with developmental impact on the continent.

The forum, overseen by the African Development Bank Group in partnership with a number of international and regional institutions, provides a practical space that brings together African governments, global financiers, and project developers, aiming to accelerate the structuring and financing of major projects and enhance investment flows toward productive sectors.

Our country’s participation in this edition, which takes place from November 26 to 28, comes within the framework of a government approach aimed at strengthening financial partnerships and attracting new investments in the fields of energy, infrastructure, green transition, and the digital economy, in line with government policy priorities for inclusive growth and job creation.
The Minister is expected to hold a series of bilateral meetings with regional and international financial institutions, in addition to participating in high-level sessions dedicated to discussing investment prospects and project financing opportunities in Africa.
