Importance of the subject matter
The business landscape is undergoing continuous change. Africa, as an emerging investment destination, is the least understood market where information is generally scarce or outdated, making risk evaluation difficult. Assessing the true cost of risk, as opposed to the perception, mitigating this risk and understanding how to deal with the risk on the ground is imperative for current and potential investors in Africa.
The overall aim of the forum
The Africa Risk Summit is designed to encourage investment into Africa by addressing issues which are critical for business. The summit will also promote dialogue between investors, policy-makers and risk experts and identify action-oriented strategies to mitigate risk and deal with risk pertinent to the continent. The attendees will gain a better understanding of the costs of risks, will be able to manage risk more appropriately and will gain firsthand experience of how to minimise risk.
