CDC's mission is to support building businesses throughout Africa and South Asia, to create jobs and make a lasting difference to people's lives in some of the world's poorest places. Since 2012, CDC has made new investments only in these regions. The ethos of investing in Africa and South Asia was reiterated in the 2017 Strategic Framework, which details a range of investment strategies across our markets.
