Doing Business in Africa

Africa grew faster than the world in 2025. FDI is up 75%. Twelve of the world's 20 fastest-growing economies are African. But Brent is at $110, the Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed, and two-thirds of sub-Saharan Africa's GDP is in net fuel-importing countries. This is what the opportunity and the risk look like at the same time.
