RECOGNISING THE MOST INNOVATIVE & GROUND-BREAKING DEALS FROM AFRICA
BOOK YOUR TABLEThe nominations for the Bonds & Loans Africa AWARDS 2021 and 2022 are now closed. The 2021 Bonds & Loans Africa AWARDS was postponed due to the disruptions caused by COVID-19. However, we are delighted to advise that the Bonds & Loans Africa AWARDS ceremony in 2022 will feature winners from both years – winners selected on performance in 2020 and 2021.
Since 2014, the Bonds & Loans Awards has been recognising the most innovative and ground-breaking deals from Sovereign, Corporate and Financial Institution issuers and borrowers. In 2022, we are delighted to announce that for the first time we will be recognising the outstanding achievements of Investment Banks' Deal Teams, Funding Teams, Investment Managers, and Legal Advisers.
The exhaustive selection process involves close examination of deal size, tenor, structure, and distribution; analysis and background of the borrower and their accessibility to financing; with extra credit for those deals demonstrating high quality execution, accessing new pools of liquidity, innovative structuring, and opening-up new markets.
Bringing together the industry’s most high-profile figures, the Bonds & Loans Africa Awards ceremony is an opportunity to raise the profile of the financial markets with the international investment community, and to inspire future issuance by African companies.
Following a rigorous selection process, we are delighted to announce the Bonds & Loans Africa AWARDS 2022 and 2021 winners! This year's awards ceremony will feature winners from both years. To join the African industry's most high-profile figures at the awards ceremony on the 9th March 2022 at the Mount Nelson, Cape Town, book your table here today.
