In our first keynote session of the day, Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede, Chairman of the Coronation Capital took to the stage to discuss developments in African capital markets. In particular, Aigboje stressed that Africa has been left behind in the prosperity that capital markets have brought to the modern world. He broadly put this down to sub-Saharan African issuers’ struggle to remain competitive on the global stage due to rating agencies’ reluctance to give investment-grade ratings – an unfair disadvantage and likely a mistake on their behalf. Aigboje concluded by calling for improvements in African data and fiscal transparency and the adoption of global investment performance standards by sub-Saharan investment funds to put them on equal footing with international competitors. #ICMAAGM2024 #Brussels #global #Africa #joinus #capitalmarkets #event #csuite

The RMB - Rand Merchant Bank Where to Invest in Africa 2024" report ranks #Egypt as the third most attractive investment destination in Africa, following #Seychelles and #Mauritius. Egypt's ranking is largely driven by its substantial market size, being Africa's largest economy by GDP, and offering diverse investment opportunities in sectors like technology, manufacturing, and services. The report emphasizes Egypt's strategic location, which enhances its market accessibility, particularly due to the Suez Canal's significance in global trade. Despite challenges in economic stability and currency fluctuations, the country remains an attractive destination due to ongoing economic reforms aimed at improving the business climate, such as tax incentives and infrastructure development. Egypt's ranking as a "highflyer" reflects its status as a large, well-established economy offering a stable environment for investment.
