Market, trade and investment data turned into decision-ready intelligence for boards, investors and policymakers.
Economic, trade, sector and market research, from value chain studies to investment opportunity assessments.
Analysis of trade, industrial and investment policy, and what it means commercially for investors and operators.
White papers, briefing notes and commentary on the issues shaping African markets.
Roundtables, dialogues and trade missions that bring public and private decision-makers to the same table.
Mapping of the institutions, decision-makers and relationships that shape outcomes in each market.
Climate objectives now sit at the centre of trade policy. Measures such as the EU's carbon border adjustment mechanism and the US Inflation Reduction Act change who can sell into the largest markets, and on what terms. For Africa, they also open a path to capture more value from the minerals and energy the global transition depends on.
