At the Intra-African Trade Fair (IATF) in Algeria, a delegation from Rokel Commercial Bank Sierra Leone (RCBank-SL) engaged in a constructive meeting with representatives from Afreximbank and Oakwood Green. This high-level engagement marked a significant step towards enhancing collaboration in key business areas, emphasizing a shared commitment to promoting intra-African trade, financial integration, and economic development across the continent.
A focal point of the discussions was the Africa Trade Gateway (ATG), Afreximbank’s flagship digital platform aimed at facilitating seamless, efficient, and secure trade among African markets. Rokel Commercial Bank expressed keen interest in further integration with the ATG, recognizing its potential to create new trade corridors, improve transaction transparency, and simplify cross-border trade financing.
In acknowledgment of Rokel Commercial Bank’s growing regional influence and its aligned vision for expanding access to trade finance across Africa, Afreximbank extended a formal invitation for the bank to participate in its upcoming Trade Finance Seminars in Nigeria. These seminars aim to gather financial institutions, regulators, and private sector stakeholders to enhance technical expertise in structured trade finance, compliance, risk mitigation, and product innovation.
Rokel Commercial Bank views its evolving partnership with Afreximbank and Oakwood Green as a cornerstone of its continental growth strategy and remains dedicated to actively contributing to the development of Africa’s trade ecosystem.
