Across the Middle East & Africa, sovereigns play a vital role in propelling projects - without their support, many vital infrastructure transactions could not go ahead. This session brings together sovereigns who are borrowing on the ECA market to consider:

  •  How can ECAs best appeal to governments with their sights set on large scale projects?

  • What impact do stringent ESG requirements have on emerging market borrowers?
  • What do the project pipelines look like for each of our government representatives?
