AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Trade Finance Boost: AfDB approved a $20m Madagascar trade finance guarantee facility for BMOI, aiming to speed up industrialisation and help local firms import production inputs. Diplomatic Push: President Michael Randrianirina met Nigeria’s Bola Tinubu in Abuja for closed-door talks to deepen ties on trade, agriculture, security and climate resilience. Maritime Safety & Sanctions: A fire on the Madagascar-flagged tanker MT Marivex near Oman’s Strait of Hormuz led to the rescue of 24 Indian crew; separate reports say the vessel was linked to US sanctions and had tried to evade a blockade. Mining Update: Sumitomo financed the sale of its 54% stake in Ambatovy, helping it exit a loss-making nickel project; production is set to resume by end-June. Graphite Strategy: Total Graphite launched a portfolio optimisation programme for its Madagascar operations, weighing partners, funding, joint ventures and possible asset sales.
