10/3/25, 8:39 AM ECI highlights role in boosting UAE-Africa trade and investment at The Africa Debate 2025
In alignment with the UAE’s clean energy agenda, ECI reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Africa’s transition. During COP28, the UAE
pledged USD 4.5 billion to accelerate clean energy projects across the continent. ECI is contributing by providing USD 500 million in credit
insurance to help unlock private capital for these projects.

The forum brought together global corporations, investment institutions, policymakers, and thought leaders to discuss ways of strengthening
UAE-Africa economic ties. This marked the second edition of the event hosted in Dubai, following its successful debut in 2024 after ten prior
editions in London. The UAE remains the largest GCC investor in Africa, underlining its long-term commitment to fostering sustainable
partnerships with the continent.
