    I spent 24 hours in Ethiopia this weekend. Peace and security are the bedrock of Africa’s economic transformation.   Africa’s Global Bank, UBA Group is proud to support the AfricanUnion Peace Fund with US$0.5 million—because without peace, there can be no progress.    The AU Peace Fund plays a crucial role in conflict resolution, mediation, and securing a stable future for Africa. Our commitment at UBA Group goes beyond banking—we invest in the future of Africa, ensuring that businesses, communities, and nations thrive.   We cannot talk about economic growth without talking about security. We must create an environment where entrepreneurs can flourish, investments can thrive, and our youth can dream big. Peace is not just a goal—it’s a necessity.    UBA Group has always stood for Africa’s progress. Whether through our $14m COVID-19 response or today’s support for the AU Peace Fund, our mission remains clear: uplift lives, empower businesses, and drive sustainable development.   Development will come with peace. Every individual, business, and organisation must play their part. We are honoured to stand with the AfricanUnion on this journey.  #Africapitalism #TOEWay
