The African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) is a multilateral financial institution created by Agreement among African states and regional organizations. Its shareholders are drawn from the African public and private sectors as well as from outside the continent. Afreximbank specializes in promoting and financing African trade, especially African exports.
The Bank is calling for expressions of interest to design and develop a flag which reflects its vision and mission. The design of the flag should synthesize the core objectives of the Bank which are to develop intra-African trade, encourage African development, and integration, and the ideals of the African union, the idea of an African International partnership or cooperation for the development of African trade.
The design should also reflect financial strength and use as its basis the present logo of Afreximbank, appearing on the top of this notice and, in color, on the website of the Bank: www.afreximbank.com
Interested parties are invited to submit entries to the Bank within two weeks of the publication of this notice (but, in any case, not later than 8th of June 2010). The winner should be able to further develop, complete and deliver the flag by July 15th 2010.
Entries will be judged by a panel selected by the Bank. The decision of the panel will be final. The three leading submissions (as determined by the panel) will receive a prize of US$ 5,000, US$ 3000 and US$ 2000 respectively for the first, second and third winning entries; the property in each of which shall thereafter vest solely in the Bank.
Only the first three winners will be contacted by the Bank Entries should be submitted in hard and soft copies to:
