THE MAP
Structure & constraints
Investment momentum in Africa is growing as local policymakers and entrepreneurs increasingly engage in industrialization and reduce market frictions, despite historical challenges faced by African businesses during global crises.
THE MOOD

Investor sentiment is predominantly negative due to a historical wariness among African and foreign investors, although there are hints that this trend may be shifting.
