Английская Википедия:African Trade and Investment Development Insurance
The African Trade and Investment Development Insurance (ATIDI) is an investment, trade and political risk-mitigation institution on the African continent intended to provide insurance against political and commercial risks in order to attract foreign direct investment to the region. ATIDI was founded in 2001 by seven COMESA countries, with technical and financial backing of The World Bank.[1]
ATIDI is Africa's only multilateral investment and credit insurer and as of 31 December 2022 it had supported trade and investments into Africa valued at over USD78 billion [2] since inception. ATIDI facilitates partnerships between African countries, lenders, investors, traders and insurers by providing Political (Investment) Risk Insurance to lenders and investors and also (Trade) Credit Insurance and Surety Bonds to commercial bank lenders and private sector traders of goods and services.
History
ATIDI was created in 2001 as African Trade Insurance Agency (ATI), to help drive much needed investment insurance capacity to Africa in order to support higher levels of foreign direct investments.[1] Seven COMESA countries obtained a grant from the World Bank to conduct a study to look at factors contributing the low levels of FDI to their countries. The study revealed political risk to be the main constraint and the primary concern of prospective investors. The study expanded into a World Bank project (The Regional Trade Facilitation Project I)[3] from which ATI was created. ATI launched in 2001 in Kampala, Uganda and opened its doors in Nairobi, Kenya, ATIDI's headquarters.[4]
ATIDI has 21 member countries and 12 other corporate shareholders including the African Development Bank, Trade Development Bank, UK Export Finance (UKEF), SACE, Chubb and Atradius.[5] As of August 2023, 21 countries out of the 55 on the continent were ATIDI members.[4] Membership is open to all African Union member states, non-African states, private corporations, regional and international institutions.
