Perspectives on Development Banks in Africa
Case Studies and Emerging Practices at the National and Regional Level
About this book
This edited collection presents seventeen case studies focused on development banking in Africa at both the national and regional level. It discusses the political economy and key characteristics of these banks and sets them in broader multilateral, regional and sub-regional contexts.
Bringing together contributions from scholars in banking and finance as well as development finance practitioners, the book assesses in-depth the corporate governance, business models, risk management practices, institutional contexts, and challenges and achievements of development banks in a range of countries, including Ghana, Nigeria, Côte d'Ivoire, Ethiopia, Rwanda, Kenya, Tunisia, Mauritius, Botswana, and Zimbabwe. It considers the major contributions of these banks so far, for example their impact on infrastructure development and trade, as well as setting out further policy implications and recommendations for further utilizing the potential of development banking in Africa. In addition, the book discusses comparative approaches in Asian development banks, regional banks and trade financing, regional case studies and the impact of development banking models on regional and sub-regional investments and economic development.
This book will be valuable readers for scholars and practitioners interested in banking and finance, development economics and finance, African economics, and the sustainable development goals.
