We seek solutions, overcome & learn from obstacles & challenges. Spirit: An independent spirit We have ensured & will continue to ensure that we are independent of any government, shareholder group, interest group or nationality. This is why we promote & embody diversity. We are a pan-African institution that believes in Africa. We do not have an African strategy, Africa is our strategy.
Who we are Soul: A positive soul that welcomes & promotes growth, supports economic development & the integration of Africa We believe that only Africans will ultimately develop Africa.
