One week on from The Network Forum Africa, which took place in London, we debrief on the major talking points coming out of the event. What are the investment trends, regulatory changes, and digital asset innovation across the continent?

  • The global perception: following the publication of the 3rd edition of World to Africa, what is the evolving view of Africa as an investment destination? 
  • Market changes: where are the markets focused in terms of infrastructure, market harmonsiation, and settlement cycles (including the challenges facing Nigeria’s move to T+1)
  • A different angle on digital assets: regulators are being praised for the efforts to support development
  • Future outlook: index inclusion, market modernisation, and investor protection
