Africa_230

The International Finance Corp (IFC) this week announced an investment in CFAFr5bn ($9m) of 12 year bonds issued by the West African Economic and Monetary Union’s Caisse Régionale de Refinancement Hypothécaire (CRRH), a regional mortgage refinancing company.

A 15 year bond is expected from CRRH later this year.
