By OneArabia
Published: Wednesday, October 1, 2025, 20:53 [GST] Raja Al Mazrouei, CEO of Etihad Credit Insurance (ECI),
highlighted the increasing interest of Emirati investors in African markets. ECI is facilitating this growth through export credit
insurance, investment guarantees, and project finance support. Al Mazrouei spoke at "Capital with Purpose – Financing
Africa’s next chapter," part of The Africa Debate 2025 in Dubai, organised by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Invest
Africa.
The UAE and Africa are entering a new phase of globalisation focused on sustainable and diversified investments. This
shift is driven by the 'Capital with Purpose' initiative, which aims to transform traditional trade and capital flows into a
resilient, impact-driven investment model. This approach enhances global competitiveness and fosters a cycle of
investment, job creation, and technology transfer.
