AFD
is the Agence Française de Développement,
a development finance institution established in 1941 that works on behalf of the
French government
In 2007, AFD committed more than €3.5 billion to developing countries and the
French Overseas Territories. AFD’s activities are aimed at reducing poverty and
inequalities, promoting sustainable economic growth, and protecting “Global
Public Goods” of benefit to all humanity. Protecting Global Public Goods includes
the fight against climate change and pandemics; the preservation of biodiversity;
the promotion of social and environmental responsibility; as well as aid to countries weakened by war and natural disasters.
In more than 70 countries and in the French Overseas Territories, AFD’s financing
and know-how supports social, economic and environmental projects in such
diverse sectors as:
Rural development − urban infrastructure − transportation − agriculture − education − banking and microfinance − energy − health care − telecommunications −
mining − housing − eco-tourism.
AFD uses a wide range of financial and technical instruments to underwrite its
activities: grants, subsidies, guarantees, loans, equity shareholdings, co-financing,
local bank intermediation and technical assistance.
AFD works hand-in-hand with many partners: national, regional and local governments; local authorities and municipalities; international agencies; non-governmental organizations; foundations; private companies; entrepreneurs; and local
banks, microfinance institutions and capital markets.
In addition to leveraging financial assets, AFD leverages its intellectual assets and
those of its partners through its research and debates about development assistance.

Reducing
poverty
and inequalities
Core objectives for AFD include eradicating poverty and inequalities
– particularly in Africa – as well as being crucial elements of the
United Nations Millennium Development Goals.
AFD contributes to the productivity and upward mobility of the poor in
developing countries by investing in health, access to clean water, education,
food production, and essential infrastructure, including financial services.
AFD fights pandemics such as HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis.
AFD builds essential infrastructure, such as for clean drinking water and
sanitation.
AFD invests in education for young people. In 2007, commitments
were made to send 4.7 million children to primary school, 1.15 million
to secondary school and provide vocational training to 45,000 young
adults.
AFD finances rural development, to increase agricultural yields, finance
equipment purchases and facilitate bringing small farmers’ production to
market.
AFD underwrites microfinance activities. As the largest donor to microfinance activities in Africa, AFD allows entrepreneurs to seize opportunities,
build new businesses, hire people, and manage the resulting growth as a
way out of poverty.
Improving access to drinking water in
the suburbs of Kinshasa
Decades of strife and flight from rural areas has
lead to rapid and unplanned population growth
in suburban areas of the capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo and some cities in Lower
Congo. Existing water and sanitation services
have not been able to keep up with demand, so
many people in these suburban areas have no
access to clean drinking water.
To address the lack of potable water, AFD
approved an €8 million grant for training and
infrastructure to build 19 suburban water
works. The program will improve living conditions and hygiene for 410,000 people. It will
have an especially strong impact on women
because it will reduce the time and effort they
spend collecting drinking water. One of the key
components of the grant is training in public
health and sanitary practices along with a hygiene awareness campaign, particularly aimed at
schools.
Expanding health insurance coverage
in Cambodia
Public health in Cambodia has generally improved in recent years. Nevertheless, public health
care services remain under-used due to their
poor quality and excessive cost.
In Takeo province and the city of Phnom Penh,
AFD is improving public health by investing €7
million to increase the quality of health care
services from local clinics to provincial hospitals,
and by extending health insurance coverage to
nearly 540,000 people.
An experimental scheme will be put into place
in 2008 to provide insurance coverage through
a special AFD fund, which will be co-financed by
the government and other donors. Thanks to
this “micro-insurance” project, nearly 100,000
policyholders will pay a premium of a few dollars
per year and receive access to almost free health
care including doctor consultations, medication,
tests, etc.
Promoting
sustainable
economic growth
AFD and its subsidiary, Proparco, support sustainable economic
growth in developing countries by offering a wide range of financial
instruments and technical assistance to large and small businesses.
Of all bilateral development institutions, AFD and its subsidiary, Proparco,
support small and medium-sized businesses with the widest range of traditional and structured financial instruments. These financial instruments include
grants; subsidies; guarantees; credit lines; extra-long-term loans; and private
equity, as well as the most innovative credit and capital risk
underwriting techniques.
In addition to providing financial capital, AFD finances intellectual capital to reinforce commercial capacities and competencies. AFD’s training programmes, economic
research and feasibility studies help businesspeople
in developing countries understand the rules of
international trade and increase their exports.
In these ways, AFD provides businesses in developing
countries with the financing, training and technical
assistance needed to raise their game and compete
effectively in the global marketplace.
AFD, through Proparco, backs an investment fund dedicated to financing small
and medium sized businesses in Morocco
“Maroc Invest is a capital investment company.
Our goal is to support talented business leaders
who can present highly promising business
plans. Using our knowledge of the local economic environment, we are able to select those
businesses most able to generate growth and
create jobs, be they in industry, service or distribution. We provide equity capital and ensure
that it is used wisely by businesses for investment for external growth or for restructuring.
The trust conferred by Proparco has a positive
impact on our fund-raising campaigns, prompting other investors to make commitments.”
Exemplary financial support for a
company in Madagascar
Bionexx is a company in Madagascar that cultivates and purifies a plant extract, Artemisia, which
provides an active ingredient used in the treatment of malaria. To help the company expand
operations, AFD has provided a 50% guarantee
on a five-year loan of $500,000 through a local
bank. Bionexx currently cultivates approximately 450 hectares of Artemisia using sustainable
techniques. It has already created 700 jobs,
employing many peasant farmers who have
created a community around the company.
As it fulfills its growth plan, Bionexx expects to
employ about 2,000 people, making it a showcase in terms of development financing for positive social and environmental impacts.
Brahim El Jaï, Chief Executive Officer of
Maroc Invest
Supporting the
French Overseas
Territories
AFD has a mandate from the French government to support sustainable economic growth in French-administered territories outside of
Europe.
AFD activities, in what it calls “Overseas France”, have four main goals: financing
and supporting public policies; promoting the competitiveness of businesses and
creating employment; supporting balanced regional development; and supporting sustainable development and environmental conservation.
AFD supports the public policies of local authorities, semi-public enterprises and the public sector with investments and financing through subsidized
loans. When local authorities run into financial difficulties, AFD also provides
advice and funding for financial restructuring.
For the private sector, AFD helps small and medium-sized
businesses get started, grow and improve their competitiveness. AFD facilitates access to bank credit and funding on
favorable terms with subsidized loans, co-financing at belowmarket rates and loan guarantees.
In terms of regional development, AFD aims to help local authorities in the French Overseas Territories to better integrate into a
regional network. These activities include extending AFD’s know-how and resources to neighboring
countries in the regions so they can work in concert
to address shared challenges.
Four of the world’s 25 biodiversity hotspots are located in the
French Overseas Territories in the Caribbean, Indian Ocean, New
Caledonia and Polynesia, which is why AFD pursues activities that
favour sustainable development and conserve biodiversity.
Industrial development in Martinique
financed by the DOM Fund
The DOM fund (Départements d’Outre Mer
fund) provided a 50% guarantee on a €976,000
loan to a building and public works company
based in Martinique so it could produce electrical and telephone cables. Such cables had
been imported previously, with the result that
distributors often ran out of stock. This business
initiative will make it possible to satisfy rapidly
increasing demand for power and phone cables
in the Caribbean far more efficiently, particularly in the wake of cyclone Dean.
Increasing the number of beds and
quality of care for the elderly in Réunion
Réunion island lags in terms of the number
elderly people it can accommodate, with only
43 beds per 1,000 inhabitants compared to
122 per 1,000 in mainland France. To improve this situation, AFD provided €12 million to
one of the largest private non-profit providers
of housing and care for senior citizens in order
to modernize and diversify existing accommodations. The money will finance construction
of three new assisted-care centers and renovate another, adding new 77 beds to a 260-bed
project.
Meeting global
challenges
AFD has taken on the challenge of preserving “global public goods”
by financing projects that address issues such as global warming,
the degradation of tropical forests, and assisting countries weakened by poverty, war or natural disasters.
AFD supports low-carbon-emissions economic growth that is based on
renewable energy, and improvements in energy efficiency and demand management. Equally important is ensuring access to reliable and secure energy
sources and distribution networks. In 2007, AFD increased its use of a new tool,
the “Bilan Carbone”, a calculator that measures greenhouse gases generated by
a project, as well as emissions reductions attributable to a project. According
to the calculator, AFD projects engaged in 2007 will reduce carbon emissions
by 2.7 million tons per year – an additional reduction of one million tons over
reductions projected for projects engaged in 2006.
For the past decade, support for the sustainable use of Central African
forests—the second-largest tropical forests after the Amazon—has been a major
priority for AFD. The forest resources are valuable both for developing the economies of the Congo Basin and for maintaining an ecological balance.
AFD ascribes to a preventive approach
to countries weakened by war
or natural disasters. Its financing
and activities focus on long-term
investments in social and economic
development, as well as on immediate
and constructive responses to crisis
situations.
10
Support for sustainable development
policies in Curitiba, Brazil
Having successfully integrated sustainable development practices in its public policies for the
past several decades, the municipality of Curitiba, capital city of the State of Paraná in southern
Brazil, has built a worldwide reputation in the
areas of mass transit and biodiversity conservation. AFD supports the municipality through
a €36.2 million loan to help finance expansion
of its mass transit network, and for the creation
of an ecological corridor. The corridor will help
the environment recover from degradation,
protect the watershed and provide a protected
habitat for native species. The loan will support
policies designed to strengthen urban biodiversity and reduce greenhouse gas emissions generated by commuting.
Aid to businesses in Lebanon affected
by the July 2006 war
The war in the summer of 2006 proved particularly devastating for small and medium-sized
businesses. To prevent multiple bankruptcies,
AFD approved a total of €125 million in credit
lines for seven Lebanese banks. These credit
lines were exclusively intended to finance businesses that were in a strong financial position
before the war, but whose viability was severely
compromised by the war. AFD’s bank partners
used to credit lines to make subsidized loans to
help sustain these Lebanese businesses. In doing
so, they responded to the companies’ urgent
need for reconstruction; equipment; inventory;
working capital; and debt restructuring, thus
making the companies viable once again.
11
Advancing
the debate
One of AFD’s principal activities is research and thinking about best
practice and ways to progress with development aid, which it calls
“intellectual outcomes”.
AFD’s “intellectual outcomes” are dedicated to helping France and its partners
define their development policies and strategies. AFD conducts many research
and strategy studies on issues and operations relating to development aid.
These studies provide the basis for a number of publications and revues about
development, and inform the international conferences AFD organizes and the
debates in which AFD participates.
In addition to providing points of view for debates and discussions about aid,
the intellectual outcomes underpin AFD’s in-house knowledge management, as
well as the content of training sessions that AFD conducts in countries where
it is active. In 2007, nearly 1,400 people from every region in which AFD is
active participated in one of 60 different training programmes and
seminars.
An additional objective of AFD’s
intellectual outcomes is to enhance
projects and strategies by conducting
pre- and post-project performance and
impact assessments. In this way AFD
strives to develop a culture of
accountability in all of its
operational divisions.

Future of Africa Forum
AFD was the co-organizer of “Future of Africa
Forum – A Look at African Success Stories”
(Forum Afrique-Avenir – Rencontres des réussites africaines) held on the 12th February 2007
in Paris. The event, with more than 1,000 participants, was inaugurated by the French President
and provided a forum for 60 speakers from all
over Africa. Artists, business leaders, teachers,
non-profit groups, and politicians shared their
professional success stories and testified to the
continent’s diversity, liveliness and creativity.
The forum received extensive media coverage
that conveyed a positive and dynamic image of
Africa.
Research on retrofitting energy
efficiency into buildings in Wuhan
Province, China
Energy upgrades for residential and commercial
buildings constitute one of the great challenges
of the next two or three decades. Existing buildings consume nearly 40% of the world’s energy
and have the highest potential for saving energy
and combating global warming. In China, there
are 40 billion square meters of energy-inefficient
buildings. That is one of the reasons AFD has
begun a substantial research program to answer
a local need in Wuhan Province, China. The goal
of the program is to find ways to reduce energy
consumption by 20% by 2010. The multi-year
program will determine the energy policy for the
provincial capital of 7 million inhabitants, which
will then be rolled out to the entire province of
60 million inhabitants.
