LONDON, United-Kingdom, December 1, 2008/African Press Organization (APO)/ — One-day international conference /Tuesday 12 May 2009
Chatham House, London

What is the future for Africa’s new emerging markets?

In recent years, interest in Africa’s emerging economies has been growing, from both sovereign and private investors, against a background of global pressure to secure natural resources. Many increasingly dominant global players such as China, India, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and Brazil have been moving fast to secure investments.

The market has continued to grow despite recent global financial turmoil. In this context, the conference will examine what the immediate and long term prospects for investment in Africa’s rapidly emerging markets are, and to what extent these markets are affected by the West’s financial woes.

Focusing on the fastest emerging economies in Sub-Saharan Africa, including Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana, Senegal and Angola, this major event will feature leading policy makers, economists and financiers speaking on new and growing opportunities for FDI investment in Africa.
