Odi Live Events Podcast

The UK is an important investor across Africa. Projected population and economic growth across the continent, as well as a high regard for British products, heighten the prospects of future UK investment.  Against the backdrop of Brexit and growing momentum over the African Continental Free Trade Area, we bring together representatives from government, research and the private sector to consider how the UK and Africa can work together to secure mutually beneficial trade and investment. Using key findings from ODI and the African Trade Policy Centre country deep dives on Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa, we discuss the opportunities and challenges to boosting UK investment in Africa with the aim of contributing to the development objectives of the continent.
