Foreword

FRMB is pleased to launch its first special Newsletter dedicated to active co-financing agreements and

trust fund resources available within the Bank.

This Newsletter complements the brown bag sessions held in 2015. The objective of this publication is to

strengthen communication with our clients; to improve User Units’ access to information on co-financing

agreements, bilateral and multi donor thematic resources; to allow User units to better identify the relevant

funds and people among FRMB staff to support them in their daily work.

The department also strives to ensure the coordination of resource mobilization by forging close links with

departments to determine their needs in order to serve them better.

This special Newsletter is divided into two (2) parts. The first part provides essential information on 3 active

co-financing agreements with Japan, China and France. This includes eligible sectors, activities, countries,

terms and conditions as well as resources under each agreement. The second part is an overview on 21

active Trust Funds managed by the Bank. The document also provides with the contacts of the trust funds

managers as well FRMB Team, who is ready to give you more information on specific concerns. It also

presents graphics on resources available for the agreements selected.

Happy New Year 2016 !
