AFD - Universal Registration Document 2020

PRESENTATION OF AFD AFD Group

Over the past six years, AFD has had a solid investor base in France (13% in 2020) and in Europe (47% in 2020). This investor base is also supplemented by international players in Asia, America and the Africa, Middle East region. This geographical diversity goes hand-in-hand with the type of investors. The last graph also shows that the share of banking investors, after having fallen slightly (26% in 2016, 19% in 2018) following the change of AFD’s banking license in 2017, rose significantly in 2020 (26%); these investors participate heavily ingreen, social orsustainable bond issues, themes representing 30% of AFD’s

volumes in 2020. The share of official institutions also continued to grow, with the increase in AFD’s borrowing programme increasing their participation, notably in liquidity tap issues. Lastly, since mid-2018 we can see that AFD’s spread has normalised and is back in line with that of its closest peers. Naturally, AFD’s spread has evolved in line with the health, economic and financial crisis during 2020, in the same way as its counterparts. It should be noted that at the end of 2020 the spread returned to its levels of the beginning of the year.
