- Provide a diversified range of services including advice, capacity building and financing, and devote 10% of net banking income to the creation of knowledge, technical training and consulting.
- Aimfor AFD's financing commitments to contribute to at least 40% of each of its three primary goals: promoting economic growth, fighting pov-erty and preserving
“Global Public Goods,” which means fighting climate change and pandemics, and preserving biodiversity.
- Dedicate at least 80% of all grant monies and 60% of France's development aid contribution to AFD's budget to interventions in sub-Saharan Africa, while extending lending activity to all African countries.

It also defined a new objective for AFD to focus at least 50% of its grant monies (excluding grants to countries in crisis) on 14 poor countries in sub-Saharan Africa.
- Implement a strategy for interventions in emerging countries based on managing Global Public Goods of benefit to all humanity, i.e. fighting climate change and pandemics, and preserving biodiversity.
- Direct 50%of financing commitments to non-sovereign entities, such as local governments and authorities, businesses and non-governmental organizations.
