Afghanistan and Venture Capital

In June 2004 it was reported that: "Afghanistan may soon have its first venture capital fund as a former McKinsey & Co. manager tries to raise $50 million as the south Asian country emerges from more than two decades of conflict.

"The Afghanistan Renewal Fund will invest in fledgling construction, food, textiles and furniture manufacturing companies, according to a document for potential backers. The Asian Development Bank said it may commit $12.5 million and CDC Group Plc, a government-owned U.K. company, may put in $5 million." Pierre Hoeylandt headed the Fund. [2] criticism
