Executive Training for Funders, Bankers & Agri-Finance Professionals

Why This Training is Important
Agriculture remains one of Africa’s most vital yet underfinanced sectors. Financial institutions and development partners continue to face persistent challenges, including high credit risk, inadequate collateral, fragmented producer ecosystems, and the growing impact of climate-related shocks. These constraints increase portfolio risk and limit the scalability of lending operations in the sector.
This training is designed to provide practical, evidence-based solutions to these structural issues. It equips institutions with tested strategies for financing agricultural value chains in ways that are both bankable and inclusive. The program combines policy alignment, risk management, and technology integration, offering a platform to strengthen institutional capacity in agri-finance.
Participants will gain the skills to develop viable lending products, manage risk proactively, comply with ESG and AfCFTA frameworks, and assess the role of blockchain and digital tools in enabling traceable and secure transactions.
