The Islamic Republic of Mauritania has signed the Agreement for the Establishment of the Fund for Export-Development in Africa (FEDA), a development impact-oriented subsidiary of the Afreximbank.
Mauritania becomes the second signatory of the Establishment Agreement after Rwanda signed in November 2020. To complete the FEDA Legal Establishment, two Afreximbank member states are required to sign and ratify the Establishment Agreement. Mauritania’s signature helps move FEDA’s Legal Establishment process forward.
The Establishment Agreement grants FEDA legal capacity to conduct business in its own name as an International Organization with Privileges and immunities accorded to other Multilateral Financial Institutions in Mauritania.
