The Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA) is a government-owned development finance institution wholly owned by the South African Government. Its aim is to accelerate sustainable socio-economic development and improve quality of life across South Africa, SADC, and the rest of Africa by providing both financial and non-financial investments in social and economic infrastructure. It prioritizes infrastructure in four sectors—energy (including renewable energy and energy efficiency), transportation (roads, rail, and ports), bulk water, and ICT—across the continent. The bank is based in Midrand, Gauteng. By financing and facilitating partnerships for infrastructure projects, DBSA supports regional integration within Africa. In 2026 it participated in planning for events like the African Energy Forum in Cape Town, reflecting its engagement in energy transition and infrastructure development.
