The President of Afreximbank, Prof. Benedict Oramah, has called for stronger Africa-Caribbean collaboration as he delivered his final address at the 4th Afri-Caribbean Trade and Investment Forum in Grenada.

Speaking to an audience of around 8,000 attendees, Prof. Oramah emphasised the importance of unity and self-reliance among Global South nations in a fractured world. He praised the participation of CARICOM leaders at the bank’s recent annual meeting in Nigeria, highlighting the growing momentum in interregional partnerships.

“Despite geographical separation, the cultural and economic ties between Africa and the Caribbean are unbreakable,” he said.

Oramah reflected on progress since the launch of efforts to boost trade between the two regions, noting that 13 of 14 independent CARICOM states have now signed on to recent agreements. He urged continued focus on practical initiatives over political rhetoric.

The forum aims to deepen trade and investment cooperation, building on historic connections and shared goals for sustainable development.
