How can Africa unlock its full trade potential? In this episode of RMB Africa Focus, RMB Chief Economist Isaah Mhlanga explores how infrastructure, free trade, and financial innovation are reshaping the continent’s investment landscape.
From the challenges of intra-African trade to the promise of new trade corridors like the Lobito Corridor, we unpack the factors that could catalyse Africa’s growth. Isaah also breaks down the critical role of sectors like mining, edtech, and healthtech – and how the Pan-African Payment and Settlement System is transforming cross-border commerce.
In addition, we look at Africa’s growing voice on the global stage through the G20 presidency and what it means for investment, equity, and climate resilience.
