In honour of Africa Day, we at Well Cure Trip – A Medical Tourism Company extends our warmest greetings to the continent and our stake holders for their continued support and association with us. Africa share some of the exciting opportunities the continent offers and the growing role it plays in the global economy. Africa is playing a greater role in the global economy, and several industries, including infrastructure and energy, are growing rapidly. Those who can manage risks successfully are finding that many of the continent’s biggest challenges are also its biggest opportunities. Despite political and economic uncertainty, which led investors to take a cautious stance and choose smaller, safer investment choices, last year was a challenging year for mergers and acquisitions in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Let’s have a look at major achievements:
- In sectors, such as financials, technology, media, and telecommunications (TMT) and energy, there was a sense of resilience. In 2023, 23 M&A deals were reported across SSA in the financial sector, according to LSEG Workspace. A total of 13 deals were announced in the African energy and power sector in 2023, including those related to oil and gas and renewable energy. A total of 13 deals were announced by TMT in 2023. As a result of the ever-increasing demand for Internet access, new market entries in the digital infrastructure space have been made, and multinational hyper-scalers have been landing additional subsea cables, including the 2Africa cable linking Europe and Asia, and building more data centres to accommodate them. Across Africa, M&A transactions that focus on socioeconomic transformation and sustainable growth will reap the biggest rewards.
- African industries have benefited from the rollout of 5G.Due to five-generation wireless internet access, many innovative projects have seen leapfrogged growth in opportunities, including asset tracking and logistics, energy monitoring, health tech, telemedicine, and precision agriculture.Cloud-based services such as streaming video and playing games are booming across the continent because of the high-speed connectivity, low latency, and efficient data transmission that come with the growing adoption of 5G, providing additional investment opportunities as well as new and interesting growth opportunities in emerging markets.
- Mobile payment systems and digital trading platforms have been developed as a result of financial sector innovation. In addition to facilitating trade across the continent, enhanced digital payment systems present investors with opportunities to invest in goods and services traded across the AfCFTA. In addition to supporting financial inclusion and online retail platforms, digital developments also benefit consumers. Africans now make up more than half of the world’s mobile money users, and innovative financial services are being offered. During the past few years, fintech has accounted for 25% of all venture capital rounds in Sub-Saharan Africa. In segments like alternative lending, digital investment, and neo-banking, bringing the unbanked into the mainstream has opened up new opportunities for innovative financial solutions.
- It is predicted that Africa’s trade income will grow by USD 450 billion by 2035 and intra-African trade will grow by over 81 percent because of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). With South Africa joining the other active AfCFTA trading countries in January 2024, several countries are now trading under the continental free trade area. Food and beverages, consumer goods, and industrial and healthcare products are currently traded within the free trade area. As part of AfCFTA’s Guided Trade Initiative, eight African countries were given the opportunity to participate in free trade in Africa: Cameroon, Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Mauritius, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Tunisia. While there is still a way to go further to facilitate trade by removing certain non-tariff barriers, overall, we remain optimistic that the main building blocks are in place for this agreement to achieve the desired objectives.
- African capital markets are experiencing volatility, leading to an increase in export credit agency (ECA)-supported funding as a diversified source of liquidity. With government backing, ECAs can act as guarantors to lenders, reducing risks in the process, and have a crucial role to play in supporting African trade. In Africa, ECAs are also playing an increasingly important role in facilitating deals. There are an increasing number of projects in Africa related to renewable energy, raw materials, and critical minerals covered by ECA programmes and products.
