Convergence and Agricultural Transitions Lab for African Solutions (ATLAS) invite you to join this webinar exploring how credit guarantees are being used within blended finance structures to de-risk agricultural investments and mobilize private capital. The session will highlight practical use cases, key design considerations, and the role of public and development actors in making agricultural finance more bankable.

Credit guarantees are a powerful tool for unlocking finance in the agriculture sector. They can lower and/or transfer risk and improve bankability. This is especially relevant in the context of Africa where the sector is chronically under financed despite employing ~70% of the continent’s workforce.

Featured panelists:
- __Yaw Oppong__, CEO, RDF Ghana
- __Ann Marie Mwaka Sabano__, Head of Investments, aBi Finance
- __Dan Zook__, Executive Director, ISF Advisors
- __Muhammad Abu Ibrahim__, Executive Secretary and CEO, National Agricultural Development Fund Nigeria
