Afreximbank African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) is making its biggest push yet into Africa’s creative economy, targeting the mobilisation of up to $1 billion for the continent’s film and audiovisual industry through the Pan-African Film Fund, in a move aimed at transforming African storytelling into a globally competitive export sector.
The bank, through its development impact investment arm, the Fund for Export Development in Africa (FEDA), announced on Wednesday the appointment of One Street Studios as Co-General Partner of the fund, marking a major milestone in the implementation of one of Africa’s largest dedicated film investment platforms.
Launched in May 2025 under Afreximbank’s Creative Africa Nexus (CANEX) programme, the Pan-African Film Fund is designed to channel long-term capital into Africa’s film, television and immersive media industries while positioning the continent as a global hub for audiovisual production and storytelling.
