Dear Gianluigi Aponte,
I hope this letter finds you well. Your extraordinary leadership in the global shipping industry and your vision in founding the MSC Group have transformed international trade and connectivity, creating pathways for economic growth and collaboration across continents.
At Africa.XYZ Bank, we are embarking on a groundbreaking initiative designed to reshape the financial landscape and drive significant progress in Africa and beyond. Our mission is to harness the collective strength of the world’s wealthiest individuals and institutions by inviting them to deposit just 1% of their net worth. These funds will be directed towards bold innovations, visionary entrepreneurs, organizations, and governments to finance major projects that will shape the future.
Given your unparalleled expertise in global logistics and your dedication to bridging economies through maritime excellence, we believe your involvement would be instrumental. Your legacy of connecting markets and fostering international cooperation resonates deeply with our goal to unlock Africa’s potential and integrate it into the global economy.
With a commitment of 1% of your net worth, amounting to $393 million, we can achieve significant milestones in three key areas:
- Funding Startups: We could fund 393 high-growth startups, allocating $1 million to each. This investment would drive entrepreneurship, create jobs, and stimulate innovation in sectors critical to Africa’s development, including logistics, trade, and technology.
- Scaling Renewable Energy Projects: We could scale 5 renewable energy megaprojects, with an allocation of $75 million for each project. This would accelerate the transition to sustainable energy, reduce carbon emissions in the shipping industry, and ensure a cleaner future for generations to come.
- Building Infrastructure: We could invest in building 20 kilometers of pan-African rail, at a cost of $20 million per kilometer. This development would enhance regional connectivity, reduce logistics costs, and strengthen trade routes, further integrating Africa into the global supply chain.
We are planning a grand launch ceremony on January 30th, 2026, and we would be honored if you could join us. Your participation would not only highlight the importance of infrastructure and trade in economic development but also inspire other industry leaders to contribute to this transformative movement.
Your commitment to this initiative would amplify its impact, demonstrating how strategic investments in infrastructure and innovation can create lasting change. Together, we can build a future where Africa’s economic potential is fully realized, and global trade becomes more inclusive and sustainable.
Please consider this invitation as an opportunity to extend your legacy of connectivity and progress. We look forward to the possibility of welcoming you to Africa.XYZ Bank and working together to create a brighter, more interconnected world.
Thank you for considering our invitation. We eagerly await your positive response.
Warm regards,
Anderson Anonzo
