RSE COVID GTST Mauritania The project consists of an investment of USD 40 million by IFC to be part of a revolving structured commodity trade finance facility (the Facility), arranged by Société Générale Corporate & Investment Banking (SG CIB) for Addax Energy S.A. (Addax) to finance imports of petroleum products in Mauritania.  IFC previously financed Addaxs imports of energy products into Mauritania during 2018-2020. The relevant disclosure is available through the link at  https://disclosures.ifc.org/project-detail/SII/41069/gtst-mauritania-2018 . The Project is expected to have a strong contribution to the economy's resilience as it supports the energy sector and the entire value chain to sustain operations during this acute COVID shock.  Disruptions in supply of petroleum products would acutely affect the functioning of key industries (mining and fishing- among the top GDP contributors) and more generally the macroeconomic stability and GDP growth of this IDA country. 

The Project also supports regional integration by keeping trade routes and channels open, especially to Mali and other landlocked countries in the region. While the overall Correspondent Banking appetite of international banks towards emerging market has drastically decreased, particularly in Africa, this project would contribute to keep critical correspondent banking links active with local financial institutions.

GTFP ATRI BPM The proposed investment project is with Banque Populaire de Mauritanie (BPM or the Bank) in a form of unfunded trade facility of up to US$10 million equivalent with a maximum tenor of 6 months (the Project). The Project builds on GTFP's global platform, increasing access to trade finance to emerging markets and developing economies. The Project will provide increased access to trade finance to the Issuing Bank's customers, including both corporates and SMEs. On the market side, the project will further connect the Issuing Bank's cross border connections, increasing Mauritania's integration through both financial and real sector channels. The Project will strengthen BPMs ability to link more traders to other markets in a country where trade plays a key role in the economy.
GBM III Project The project consists of an IFC term loan of up to $12 million to Generale Banque de Mauritanie (GBM, the Bank or the company), a well know IFC client, for on-lending to medium and long term project finance transactions in Mauritania and the sub-region.  As of September 30th 2004, GBM, which was formed in 1995, had $151 million in assets, a loan book of $123.5 million and $48 million in shareholders equity, which makes it the largest bank in terms of net worth and loans in the country with a 26% market share.  The proposed project will be IFCs fifth investment with GBM.
Banque Mauritanienne pour le Commerce International Summary Of Project Information (SPI)       Project Name    Mauritania- Banque Mauritanienne pour le Commerce International (BMCI)      RegionSub-Saharan Africa   Sector   Project No007558   Projected Board DateJanuary 31, 1997   Company NameBanque Mauritanienne pour le Commerce International   Technical Partner and/or Major Shareholders    	Mr. Sidi Mohamed Abass, the founder and principal owner of BMCI is a 60-year old, well-known and respected Mauritanian businessman.  Together with his family and affiliated companies, Mr. Abass controls 61% of BMCIs shares.      Project Cost Including proposed IFC investment    	The project involves IFC providing a US$10 million equivalent credit line to BMCI.  BMCIs total assets and equity amount respectively to US$98 million and US$14 million.     Location of project and Description of site    	The Bank is headquartered in Nouakchott and has five branches in the main provincial centers.     Description of Company and Purpose of Project    	BMCI is the largest private commercial bank in Mauritania. So far, BMCI has concentrated on short-term operations and has lacked term resources to expand its project finance activities.  The proposed line of credit would enable the Bank to fund working capital and investment needs of export-oriented Mauritanian enterprises as well as to further develop the Banks trade finance activities.    Environmental Category and Issues    	This is an environmental review category (FI) project.  For relevant operations, BMCI will be required to undertake an environmental review of each sub-project. In addition, IFC will assess BMCIs capability in carrying out these environmental reviews.

BOP BMI Project GTFP ATRI BMI #47111: The proposed project consists of a trade finance facility of up to US$10 million for Banque Mauritanienne de lInvestissement (BMI or the Bank) with a maturity of up to 9 months. The investment falls under the IFCs Global Trade Finance Program (GTFP) and is booked under the African Trade and Supply Chain Finance Recovery Initiative (ATRI) umbrella (the Project). The investment will support BMIs fast-growing trade business (i.e., mainly imports of strategic goods) and is timely since there has not been any GTFP partner bank in Mauritania since 2014.            BOP BMI #47226: The proposed investment to Banque Mauritanienne de lInvestissement (BMI or the Bank) consists of an up to US$20 million senior loan with a maturity of 3 years, processed under the Base of the Pyramid (BOP) program (the Project).  The Project will support the growth of the Banks micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSME) portfolio and will benefit from benefit from a 40% Pooled First Loss Guarantee (PFLG) from IDA-PSW Blended Finance Facility (BFF) and the Global Small and Medium Enterprise Finance Facility (GSMEF) as described in the Blended Finance Section. GTFP ATRI BMI #47111: The Project builds on GTFP's global platform, increasing access to trade finance to emerging markets and developing economies. The Project will provide increased access to trade finance to the Issuing Bank's customers, including both corporates and SMEs. On the market side, the project will further connect the Issuing Bank's cross border connections, increasing Mauritania's integration through both financial and real sector channels. The Project will strengthen BMIs ability to link more traders to other markets in a country where trade plays a key role in the economy.

BOP BMI #47226: The most significant expected project-level outcome for the project is access to finance for MSMEs and women-owned businesses to support economic activity and resilience in the context of a fragile economy. Beyond the project outcome, IFC anticipates that the Project will support resilience amongst finance providers catalyzing investments in the sector by demonstrating the viability of lending to MSMEs and crowding in other sources of international and domestic finance in support of institutions targeting the BOP.

EACDS Lot B Assignment: Commonwealth Clean Ocean Alliance Technical Assistance Facility Scoping Support - Uganda On 16th April 2018, the UK Government announced the establishment of the Commonwealth Clean Ocean Alliance (CCOA) to eliminate single use plastic and address marine plastic pollution. To create change on the global stage, under the Commonwealth Blue Charter, the United Kingdom and Vanuatu are working together to lead this Action Group. More information about the CCOA programme can be found on the Commonwealth website.

The UK Government has set aside up to £10m to provide technical assistance (TA) to eligible Commonwealth members in delivering their priority actions under the CCOA ambitions of:
i taking steps to eliminate avoidable single use plastic waste
ii significantly reducing single use plastic carrier bags by 2021
iii banning the sale and manufacture of micro-beads in rinse-off personal care products by 2021.

The TA support could take a number of forms indicatively including the following support to develop:
i A plastics or waste management strategy
ii An action plan to translate strategy and policy into action plans
iii Specific Policy and Action Plans for Targeted Plastic Leakage Priorities
iv Research and Data Analysis
v Evaluation of existing strategies, policies and plans
vi Project Proposal Development Support – to help draft things like infrastructure bids
vii Development of strategies/plans to support the enforcement of existing policies or legislation.
(Further details of eligible types of support are provided in Annex 1)

The TA assignments that are designed through this process must be implemented within a timeframe of up to 12 months from April 2020 onwards.

The UK Department for International Development (DfID) and UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) (the clients) have engaged DAI working with Common Seas (“the Coordination Team”) to establish a Technical Assistance Facility (TAF) to coordinate an engagement and scoping exercise across 23 eligible Commonwealth member states that will determine how to allocate these funds to support meaningful action to reduce plastic pollution across the Commonwealth. The scoping exercise will be coordinated by the Coordination Team working with a range of expert partners through the UK Government Expert Advisory Call-Down Services (EACDS) Lot B Facility. The Government of Uganda has engaged with the UK Government to seek assistance under the TAF.
GSMA Connected Society Fund The Connected Society Innovation Fund, managed by Tetra Tech International Development, aims to support innovative mobile internet connectivity solutions for unconnected rural communities. The project grants funds for mobile network equipment vendors to deploy their rural connectivity solutions for the first time globally, with partnering MNOs in Uganda and Ghana. The vendors and their partners have now been selected and will be awarded up to £330,000 each for implementing turnkey solutions to suit challenging rural environments with low population density, difficult terrain or limited infrastructure. Each project was judged on its ability to provide solutions that are innovative, scalable and commercially sustainable. The sites will be located in deep rural communities not covered by a mobile signal and will be fully integrated into Vodafone’s network in Ghana and MTN’s in Uganda
