The degeneration of financial business is the dark side of the capitalism that had ups and downs since A. Smith shared his idea. After September 2007, a date that marked the beginning of the world crisis that is still ongoing, there wasn’t a real change in doing finance, but just the introduction of new regulations and restrictions to the financial markets, which have produced poor effects and even a negative impact (austerity); in some way, it looks like a dog eating the queue. It has been assumed to solve the world economy’s problems with financial engineering, keeping the technicality approach instead of changing the approach;under the circumstances it is hard to think to sort out from unemployment and poverty.

We have proposed “JAMBO” FUND FOR AFRICA, which objective is twofold: provide assistance and money, the former without the latter being inconsistent. The FUND aims at pooling resources to finance viable projects: everybody says that! But, JAMBO will do it within the UN Agenda for SDGs and in the framework of Basel III Committee; somebody said that, but then we will find out that there isn’t above reasoning behind. Summing up, we have elaborated from the recent issues on theme of development finance and matched it with our extensive field experience and expertise.
