African financial investment and capital mobilisation

Overview

African financial institutions and sub-sovereign governments are focusing on mobilizing capital to drive regional development and trade.

In October 2026, Afreximbank announced it would host the sixth African Sub-Sovereign Governments Network (AfSNET) Investment Conference in Calabar, Nigeria. The event aims to transform regional investment proposals into bankable projects, specifically targeting infrastructure, industrialization, and cross-border trade to support the African Continental Free Trade Area.

Following this, major financial groups including Access Holdings Plc and Coronation Group prepared to participate in the Africa Financial Summit (AFIS) 2026 in Luanda, Angola. Discussions at the summit centered on converting institutional reach into sustainable economic value, increasing domestic capital for infrastructure financing, and addressing challenges such as regulatory complexities, foreign exchange restrictions, and fragmented markets.
