The problem
You have the mandate. You have the capital.
What is missing is files you can put in front of an investment committee: demonstrated additionality, a defensible financial model, an environmental and social management plan compliant with the Performance Standards. Your teams spend their time rewriting what the sponsor should have produced — and disbursements slip from one financial year to the next.

The principle
Your institution pays nothing
File preparation does not come out of your budget: the sponsor funds its own preparation — exactly the logic of international project preparation. Your institution receives a compliant file without having committed a single euro of technical assistance.
When your institution wishes to fund preparation directly — because the sponsor cannot afford it and the project deserves to exist — a technical assistance mechanism allows it, under your explicit mandate.
What we operate
From concept note to annual review
Investment-committee-ready file
Concept note, full proposal, Performance Standards-compliant ESMP, additionality note — bilingual where needed.
Post-disbursement monitoring
ESMP compliance reports, impact monitoring, annual review — to your institution's exact standards, without you having to chase.
Technical assistance window
The mechanism by which your institution directly funds the preparation of a project it wants to see exist.
How we work
We read your criteria
Country mandate, eligible sectors, ticket thresholds, additionality requirements, environmental category. Screening happens before, not during your appraisal.
We pre-appraise
The file reaches you in the format your committee expects — not an entrepreneur's business plan, an institutional file.
We stay on the ground
Local presence in the CEMAC zone: execution monitoring, alert detection, interface with authorities. You are not flying blind from Paris or Washington.
Our reference frameworks
For an institution, a signature commits. The firm, its team, its working standards and its mandates are documented — due diligence runs on us too.

What institutions ask us
Technical note
Why DFI pipelines fail in Central Africa — and how ours is built
The real grounds for rejection in investment committees, the origination quality that is missing, and what blended finance actually enables in the CEMAC zone.
