Investment Fund for Health in Africa II (IFHA II) aims to foster better access to private healthcare services in Sub-Saharan Africa which suffers from a shortage of infrastructure, low quality of existing facilities and scarcity of medical staff of all types. The projects targeted by the Fund include, among others, expansions of hospitals and clinic chains, the set-up of drug manufacturers, health insurance and the financing of a company producing affordable HIV/AIDS testing solutions. The Dutch fund manager, Africa Health Systems Management, has successfully invested its first Fund IFHA I with strong development impact, on which basis EIB decided to support its second fund in 2014.
