Our range of innovative development finance mechanisms include:
Through innovative financial products and expert guidance, AEMBank empowers corporations to navigate complex financial landscapes, achieve strategic objectives, and drive long-term value creation in the extractive minerals industry.
Our Principal Investing services involve the bank directly investing in mining projects or companies, taking an equity stake to support growth and development. This aligns our interests with those of our clients and demonstrates our commitment to the success of their ventures.
The African Extractive Minerals Development Bank provides long-term financing for large-scale mining projects, focusing on the cash flows generated by the project itself as the primary source of repayment. This approach allows for the development of high-capital-intensive projects that are essential for regional economic growth.
We offer Leveraged Finance solutions to support acquisitions, expansions, or other significant transactions in the mining sector. By using a combination of debt and equity, we help companies achieve their strategic objectives while optimizing their capital structure.
Through Syndications, we arrange for multiple lenders to provide the necessary funding for large mining projects. This diversifies risk and increases the available capital, ensuring that even the most ambitious projects can be adequately financed.
The Africa Extractive Minerals Development Bank facilitates Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) to develop infrastructure and mining projects that benefit both the public and private sectors. We bring together government entities and private investors to collaboratively address critical needs and promote sustainable development.
We support mining companies in raising capital through Project Bond Issuance, providing an alternative financing method that taps into the bond markets. This approach allows companies to secure long-term, fixed-rate financing, which can be more stable and predictable than traditional loans.
Our Expansion Finance services are designed to help mining companies scale their operations, increase production capacity, and enter new markets. We provide the necessary funding and strategic advice to ensure successful expansion initiatives.
The bank offers Senior Loans to finance significant mining projects and operations, providing priority repayment status to lenders. We also assist in Refinancing existing debt to improve terms, reduce costs, and enhance financial stability for our clients.
We provide Mezzanine and Structured Debt financing, which combines elements of debt and equity to offer flexible funding solutions. This type of financing is ideal for projects with higher risk profiles or those seeking to minimize dilution of ownership.
Our Guarantees services offer credit enhancements that reduce the risk for lenders and investors in mining projects. By providing guarantees, we help clients secure better financing terms and attract more capital to their projects.
