About ADC
ADC African Development Corporation (ISIN: DE000A1E8NW9; Bloomberg: AZC.GR,
www.african-development.com), a member of the Angermayer, Brumm & Lange
Group (www.abl-group.de), was established in September 2007 and aims to
become one of the leading banking groups in sub-Saharan Africa, active in
corporate and retail banking and proprietary investments. The company's
success is primarily due to its local management team, which follows
international best practice principles to further develop its operational
companies and implements conventional international processes to increase

in the world, ADC was integrated into the insurance solution offered by the
Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency ('MIGA'), a member of the World

to the highest ethical standards. This insurance offers protection against
a variety of political risks, in particular the risk of radical political
change.
