We are happy to announce IFC's new $10 million Rwandan franc (RWF) offshore bond, supporting the digital infrastructure in Rwanda. Read more below 👇 #IFCInfrastructure #DigitalInfrastructure
We are thrilled to announce the issuance of a new IFC Rwandan franc (RWF) offshore bond, a $10 million issuance that marks IFC’s return to the “Twigire” market since our debut issuance in 2015. This 8-year bond is a milestone as it connects the offshore market with an onshore IFC - International Finance Corporation investment for the first time, and it is also the longest-dated RWF offshore bond issued by a supranational. The dealer on the bond was Citi. It will be listed on the London Stock Exchange, and the proceeds will support the expansion of digital infrastructure in Rwanda. IFC is committed to developing innovative solutions that enhance access to local currency financing in RWF, support private businesses and stimulate economic growth in Rwanda. We’re eager to support the further development of the RWF denominated capital markets, both domestic and offshore. Thank you to our investors and partners for supporting this trade.
