DAKAR, March 17 (Reuters)&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;The African Development Bank (AfDB) has secured $32.8 billion in investment commitments for projects in Africa, the bank&#8217;s president said at the closing of a meeting with investors on Thursday.



The largest deal secured at the three-day Africa Investment Forum was $15.6 billion for the Lagos-Abidjan mega highway, connecting West Africa&#8217;s two major cities in Nigeria and Ivory Coast, said AfDB President Akinwumi Adesina.



The highway of about 1,200 km (745 miles) will have four to six lanes and should be completed in about six years, he said.

&#8220;Africa is a very bankable continent. We&#8217;ve gone through hard times because of the COVID-19 situation but here we are on a rebound,&#8221; said Adesina. &#8220;Africa is back for investments.&#8221;



The projects, part of the bank&#8217;s COVID-19 response, touch on sectors including agriculture and agro-processing, education, energy and climate, healthcare, minerals and mining, and information and communications technology.



Adesina said that on the health side, projects include a new medical city in Accra, a fund for health services for low-income populations in South Africa, and two platforms for manufacturing pharmaceutical products: one in West Africa and one in Kenya.



The forum was meant to be held late last year but was postponed due to a surge of Omicron coronavirus variant infections.

African Development Bank secures $32.8 bln for projects in Africa

Nigeria raises $1.2bn through Eurobonds

The world’s plastic packaging waste problem can be solved. That is the good news. This, however, will require multi-industry humility and collaboration and not competition, as well as intentional and resolute government intervention to level the playing field and create an enabling circular economy environment. There are many areas where it makes sense for industry to compete, but environmental protection and waste management in particular is not one of these areas.



In fact, around the globe, leading consumer goods companies, such as Coca-Cola, Nestle, Unilever, Pepsi, Adidas and H&amp;M, have set ambitious targets for recycling and the use of recycled content, while governments the world over are putting in place measures that ensure industry responds with the requisite sense of urgency. In the PET sector (polyethylene terephthalate), this has seen the demand for plastic bottle feedstock for recycling beginning to outstrip the supply.



Coca-Cola and its bottling partners have committed to a 100% recycling rate and 50% recycled content  by 2030, as part of their World Without Waste strategy, and the other companies listed here have similar ambitions.



A McKinsey report (How plastics waste recycling could transform the chemical industry, December 20181), estimates that given the targets that have been set by industry worldwide, almost 60% of global plastics production could be from recycling and re-use by 2050, while the use of virgin plastic would decline to 40% of total PET consumption. This is good news because it means reduced consumption of virgin material, therefore, reduced extraction and use of natural resources enabling a sustainable future.



Based on the estimated pre-Covid global PET consumption of 25 million tonnes, this would mean a need to develop and set up close to 11.8 million tonnes per annum of recycled PET globally, and the scale of the challenge, relative to the size of the market, is similar in Africa.



For example, based on the estimated pre-Covid PET consumption of 215&nbsp;000 tonnes, South Africa alone would need to recycle 82&nbsp;000 tonnes a year to meet the country’s demand for food-grade recycled PET at 50%, indicating an estimated shortfall of 50&nbsp;000 tonnes. Currently with an installed recycled PET capacity of 33 000 tonnes, SA recyclers only managed to supply around 18 000 tonnes of recycled PET, which falls short of the SA recycled PET demand. This shortage in recycled PET supply in 2021 was a result of the shortage in PET bottle feedstock.&nbsp;



Solving this supply and demand challenge requires greater levels of co-operation at all levels between governments, packaging producers, brand owners, retailers and consumers.



Globally, there has to be a single standard for food-grade recycled PET so that recyclers can invest efficiently in equipment and the development of new technology, rather than having to cater to different standards for different businesses and customers.



In Africa and other developing markets, there is an additional layer of complexity, in that the market for recycled plastic in many countries is too small to support investment in recycling plants, yet the rules governing the movement of plastic waste across borders inhibit the economies of scale needed to achieve optimal rates of recycling, limit waste going to landfill, and create employment in the circular economy.



At a minimum investment of about R250 million, a recycling plant needs to produce &nbsp;at least 12&nbsp;000 tonnes of recycled PET a year to be viable, and the global gold standard is up to 50&nbsp;000 tonnes. This requires access to at least 20&nbsp;000 tonnes of used beverage bottles a year, while in a country like Namibia for example, the total beverage PET market is only 5&nbsp;300 tonnes. With better regional co-operation, it would be possible to convert plastic bottles into washed flakes in Namibia, return it to South Africa for recycling into recycled PET, and supply both the local SA market and surrounding markets with recycled material. This means some cross border Extended Producer Responsibility may be required, as well as multi-government engagement and collaboration. This cross-border feedstock supply would also enable sustained operations of recycling plants and supply of recycled PET in South Africa.&nbsp;



The SADC region is working towards this goal, and the same model could be replicated in the rest of the continent, with mega regional recycling plants established in Kenya or Uganda for East Africa, and Ghana and Nigeria for West Africa as well as in Ethiopia. This would create the scale required to attract the investment we need in recycling capacity to meet our joint industry targets.



The model is based on the principle of Extended Producer Responsibility, in which producers declare the volumes of plastic placed in the market, and pay a commensurate fee to a Producer Responsibility Organisation (PRO), such as PETCO in South Africa. The PRO then funds the activities related to the recovery and recycling of the packaging substrate, making the used packaging material valuable enough to inspire collection and stimulating packaging circular end use demand to enhance packaging circularity<s>.</s>



The model has been so successful since PETCO was established in South Africa, growing from collection and recycling of 9&nbsp;000 tonnes of PET in 2005 to more than 82&nbsp;000 tonnes in 2020, that it is now being rolled out to three other markets in our territories.



The big remaining hurdle is to stimulate much higher rates of collection throughout the continent, and this is where more co-operation will make a decisive difference.



Today in South Africa, the challenge with local feedstock supply remains, leading to under-utilisation of existing recycling plant capacity and undersupply of recycled PET to meet the local demand. In an effort to unlock local PET bottle feedstock and recapacitate local waste pickers, Coca-Cola SA and Coca-Cola Beverages Africa (CCBA) funded collectors in South Africa with close to R9m last year in partnership with PETCO and ARO (Africa Recycling Organisation). The funds were used to subsidise collector transport costs, working capital and infrastructure. Knowing that many other similar organisations are also investing in similar initiatives, imagine how much further we could go as an industry if we were to co-ordinate our efforts in this space for enhanced circular economy and social impact.



Too few consumers are aware of the need to recycle or the benefits of doing so, and the infrastructure needed to facilitate higher rates of recycling is woefully inadequate.



The first part of this problem can be addressed through a mass awareness campaign, drawing in stakeholders across government and industry, to drive a culture change at a national and continental level. Such a campaign should transcend individual packaging waste streams, material promotion campaigns, or value chains, and focus on changing the mindset of consumers when it comes to waste of any kind and mobilising consumers to act. The example of the LoveLife HIV/Aids awareness campaign in South Africa comes to mind.&nbsp;



Consumers and their handling of packaging, post consumption is a critical missing link. After all, no packaging throws itself in the river or on the ground.&nbsp; Responsible handling of packaging post consumption is very much a consumer mindset problem, and this is a real problem that requires a deliberate, well-orchestrated, multi packaging substrate, multi stakeholder agenda. This includes using media assets such as national broadcasters, to send the message home and drive a massive consumer mindset change.&nbsp;



This would eliminate the current unnecessary duplication and confusion of messages on waste recycling and promote anti-litter culture while ensuring maximum impact.



Secondly, we need to make it far easier to recycle, both at home and in public places. Collection points should become part of the design process in the construction of new shopping centres and living space for example, and municipalities need to step up their support for recycling by providing recycling bins wherever they are needed and collecting recyclable materials more regularly and separated from other non-recyclable waste.



At the moment, none of this is happening at remotely the level required.



Finally, far more of our packaging needs to be recyclable and reusable. This ensures that we reduce consumption of natural resources by recycling what we extract and reusing the packaging we put out there more often.



At CCBA, over 20% of our revenues are already coming from returnable or refillable packs. We are strategically looking to increase the use of homogenous returnable packs. We have also already made over 95% of our packaging recyclable, and are tracking well with our efforts to meet the 100% recycling rate by, or before, 2030.



While most large producers have moved in this direction, retail chains – where consumers buy most of their packaged goods – have a critical gatekeeping role to encourage suppliers to do more. They have the power to make producers supply them with products packaged in predominantly recyclable and reusable packaging and make recycling both easier and more rewarding for consumers.



The opportunity in the circular economy is huge. It could help to solve Africa’s waste and unemployment challenges, stimulate entrepreneurship and innovation, and ensure a better future for all. There is a lot of work to be done, but a World Without Waste is within reach. We have to see beyond our own business, substrate and industry interest and put the environment first.

WASHINGTON, March 17 (Reuters)&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;The United States on Thursday imposed sanctions on Belgian businessman Alain Goetz and a network of companies tied to him that it accused of being involved in the illicit movement of gold from Democratic Republic of Congo.



The U.S. Treasury Department, in a statement, said among the targets was the African Gold Refinery in Uganda, which Goetz operates, and several other companies he owns or controls. It accused Goetz and the companies of being involved in illegal gold exports valued at hundreds of millions of dollars per year.



In a statement, Goetz said his inclusion on the U.S. sanctions list &#8220;seems to be based on misinformation&#8221;. He said he has not been to Congo in more than 20 years and has not kept any active contacts within Congo.



Goetz said he was asked to set up East Africa&#8217;s first gold refinery in 2014, adding that &#8220;nothing has made me prouder than to see the impact that African Gold Refinery has had on the gold industry in the Great Lakes region&#8221;.



The Treasury said a network of armed groups, smugglers and companies generate illicit revenue from the gold industry through forced labor, smuggling or other means. It said the illicit movement of gold provides revenue to armed groups that threaten peace and security in Congo.



&#8220;Conflict gold provides the largest source of revenue to armed groups in eastern DRC where they control mines and exploit miners,&#8221; the Treasury&#8217;s under secretary for terrorism and financial intelligence, Brian Nelson, said in the statement.



&#8220;Alain Goetz and his network have contributed to armed conflict by receiving DRC gold without questioning its origin.&#8221;



The Treasury said Goetz&#8217;s network sources gold from Congo, Kenya, South Sudan and Tanzania.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-read-more-rwanda-re-opens-border-with-uganda-but-says-grievances-remain">Read more: <a href="https://www.cnbcafrica.com/2022/rwanda-re-opens-border-with-uganda-but-says-grievances-remain/">Rwanda re-opens border with Uganda but says grievances remain</a></h3>



Goetz said the Treasury&#8217;s Office for Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) had presented no documented evidence to back up their claims, and that he was confident this &#8220;mistake&#8221; would be swiftly rectified.



The Ugandan government did not immediately reply to a request for comment.



Others designated on Thursday that the Treasury said were owned or controlled by Goetz include United Arab Emirates-based Agor DMCC and UAE-based Goetz Gold LLC.



Agor did not immediately respond to a request for comment.



Goetz Gold LLC and the African Gold Refinery could not immediately be reached for comment.



The Treasury said that since 2016, the African Gold Refinery, considered one of the largest gold refineries in Africa, has sourced illicit gold from mines in regions of Congo that are controlled by armed groups, including the Mai-Mai Yakutumba and Raia Mutomboki militia.



Thursday&#8217;s move freezes any U.S. assets of those designated and generally bars Americans from dealing with them.



&#8220;This strong action by the U.S. will send shockwaves throughout the global gold supply chain,&#8221; Sasha Lezhnev, policy consultant at non-governmental organisation The Sentry, said.



&#8220;Turning a blind eye to conflict gold now carries a heavy price.&#8221;

LAGOS/ABUJA, March 17 (Reuters)&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;Nigeria has priced a $1.25 billion Eurobond issue at 8.375%, its debt office said on Thursday, a premium compared to existing tenors as the country sought to raise cash to fund a costly petrol subsidy scheme in the face of limited oil revenue.



The latest debt issue marks Nigeria&#8217;s eight outing on the Eurobond market after it sold a $4 billion debt in September and had been considering more issues before fears around the Omicron coronavirus variant led it to shelve plans.<a href="https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?search=all%3AL1N2T01Z5&amp;linkedFromStory=true" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Read full story</a>



&#8220;The choice to go ahead with the Eurobond issue in the current adverse market conditions is likely connected to continued force majeure reducing oil revenue, while retained fuel subsidies are spiralling in tandem with the higher oil price,&#8221; said Mark Bohlund, senior analyst at Redd Intelligence.



Finance Minister Zainab Ahmed told Reuters on Monday that Nigeria planned to tap 2 billion euros ($2.2 billion) this month or next of the money it raised in a eurobond sale last year and target more local borrowing in 2022 to help fund its costly petrol subsidies as oil prices rise.<a href="https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?search=all%3AL5N2VH4FZ&amp;linkedFromStory=true" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Read full story</a>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-read-more-rwanda-raises-620-million-through-a-10-year-eurobond">Read more: <a href="https://www.cnbcafrica.com/2021/rwanda-raises-620-million-through-a-10-year-eurobond/">Rwanda raises $620 million through a 10-year Eurobond</a></h3>



The government in January reversed a pledge to end its subsidies then, and instead extended them by 18 months amid heightened inflation to avert any protests in the run-up to presidential elections next year.<a href="https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?search=all%3AL1N2U41RE&amp;linkedFromStory=true" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Read full story</a>



At the same time, the price of oil has soared, so also has its cost as the country depends almost entirely on imports to meet its domestic gasoline needs. It also faces crude theft and vandalism in the Niger Delta, disrupting oil production.



With Thursday&#8217;s bond sale, Nigeria offered more than existing eurobonds of 7.143%, creating extra debt service headache for the government struggling to boost growth with limited buffers.



President Muhammadu Buhari has said the country&#8217;s deficit would rise by 1.01 trillion naira to 7.40 trillion or 4% of GDP as the government eyes new borrowing for fuel subsidy. The deficit was originally set at 3.42% of GDP.<a href="https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?search=all%3AL1N2UQ14X&amp;linkedFromStory=true" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Read full story</a><a href="https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?search=all%3AL8N2UI5G7&amp;linkedFromStory=true" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Read full story</a>



Analysts say deficit could rise above 10 trillion naira ($24 billion) in 2022 on higher fuel subsidy cost amid rising oil prices.

NAIROBI, March 17 (Reuters)&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;The World Bank has approved $750 million lending to Kenya for budgetary support,&nbsp;pegged on reforms in public procurement to curb graft,&nbsp;the multilateral lender said on Thursday.



In 2019, the East African nation qualified for the World Bank&#8217;s Development Policy Operations (DPO), which lends cash directly to the Treasury for budget support instead of financing specific projects.



The loan, which comes with an annual interest rate of about 3.0%, is the second tranche of a credit facility initiated in 2020, the World Bank said. The first tranche was disbursed last June.



Reforms tied to the loans include the establishment of an electronic platform for public procurement to foster transparency and reduce opportunities for corruption, it said in a statement.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-read-more-kenya-s-budget-deficit-to-widen-as-treasury-lays-out-extra-spending">Read more: <a href="https://www.cnbcafrica.com/2022/kenyas-budget-deficit-to-widen-as-treasury-lays-out-extra-spending/">Kenya’s budget deficit to widen as Treasury lays out extra spending</a></h3>



&#8220;By the end of 2023, the program aims to have five strategically selected ministries, departments, and agencies, procuring all goods and services through the electronic procurement platform,&#8221; the bank said.



The program will also support energy reforms, by creating a platform for clean energy investments which has the potential to attract more investors, the World Bank said.



Under President Uhuru Kenyatta, Kenya has expanded borrowing in recent years, to fund the construction of infrastructure such as roads and railways.



Increased borrowing has angered some critics who point to a consistently gaping annual fiscal deficit.



Still, the World Bank was complementary of the government&#8217;s commitment to steering the economy in the right path.



&#8220;The government of Kenya has maintained the momentum to make critical reforms progress despite the disruption caused by the pandemic,&#8221; said Keith Hansen, country director for Kenya.
