Ghana Urged to Lead as Afreximbank Projects $44bn Deals at IATF 2025

Afreximbank

In a consolidated financial statement released by the Afreximbank Group, the bank has made more than $1 billion gross profit in the 2021 financial year.

The statement shows that the Bank achieved a 10.1 per cent increase in its net income from $351.7 million in 2020 to $387.3 million in 2021 which was largely due to growth in operating income in 2021.

That notwithstanding, the Group’s net income of $375.8 million was slightly lower than the net income reported by the Bank ($387.3 million) mainly because of the pre-establishment expenses incurred by the subsidiaries, it added.

The financial statement further indicated that the Afreximbank’s gross income profile improved from $1.08 billion recorded in 2020 to $1.13 billion recorded in 2021. The improvement came on the back of strong interest income, which crossed $1 billion in 2021. Meanwhile, the increament in funded income was driven by healthy interest margins and higher loan volumes.

The Group’s shareholders’ funds rose by 17.4 per cent to $4 billion from the $3.4 billion recorded in previous year, which is primarily on account of the progress made in the ongoing $6.5 billion General Capital Increase (GCI, $2.6 billion expected as paid-in amount). Overall, the Group maintained a healthy, liquid and robust balance sheet position with respective NPL, liquidity coverage and capital adequacy ratios of 3.4 per cent, 169 per cent and 25 per cent in 2021.

Total Assets of Afreximbank Increased

According to the financial report of the bank, its total assets grew by 13.4 per cent from $19.3 billion recorded in 2020 to about $22 billion as at 2021, which primarily is as a result of 11.5 per cent growth in net loans and advances and a 12.1 per cent increase in cash and cash equivalents to $18.2 billion and $3.1 billion respectively.

The statement shows that with significant growth in guarantees and letters of credit, in line with the bank’s new strategy, total assets and guarantees of the Group rose from $21.7 billion in 2020 to $25 billion in 2021.

Professor Benedict Oramah, the President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Afreximbank, commenting on the financial statement, indicated that though 2021 was challenging, the bank did not lose focus.

“2021 was again a challenging year with continued economic and business disruptions caused by the pandemic, including continued supply chain disruptions, delayed access to the COVID-19 vaccines and rising global prices.

“Throughout 2021, the bank remained focused on proactively and aggressively supporting the fight against COVID-19 in Africa by acting as a financial and transaction advisor, guarantor, payment agent and instalment payment facility provider under the $2 billion Advance Procurement Commitment (APC), and Guarantee Facility which supported Africa Vaccine Acquisition Trust (AVAT) to secure 400 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines for the continent with 220 million doses committed in parallel. We maintained strong support for financial institutions, corporates and our member states in other areas.”
