Africa Investment Forum 2012

The 10th Africa Investment Forum will be held in Accra on 28th - 29th March 2012, in partnership with the Government of Ghana and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).

According to McKinsey, Africa in 2020 will have a collective GDP of $2.6 trillion and consumer spending power of $1.4 trillion, the opportunity this represents for international investors is immense. CBC is determined to bring together the Public and Private sector in order to enable Africa to capitalise on this potential.

The image of Africa as a destination for investment has been transformed and the number of Emerging Market Funds with African interests has soared. With the increasing volatility of the Western Markets, Africa is now increasingly becoming a preferred investment destination of choice. A catalyst for this has also been the progress made towards regional integration to create larger markets, enhanced competitiveness and improving infrastructure. Therefore it follows that this AIF will focus on partnerships with ECOWAS to mobilise investment.
