Meeting set between ADB and traders from Cameroon

As part of the celebration of its 50 years of activity, the Cameroonian representation of the African Development Bank will meet the countries traders in a bid to improve economic development.

The meeting set for June 27, in Douala, will involve members of the Groupement inter patronal du Cameroun (GICAM) and will provide an opportunity for the ADB to present to Economic Operators of the country an overall strategy for financing Africa's development, products and financing mechanisms of the ADB, as well as the state of its portfolio of projects in Cameroon.

Lack of funding is still one of the major constraints for development and Cameroonian companies say the Gicam members of this group of employers are invited to participate massively in this exchange, in order to "understand the opportunities offered by this institution".
