Brought to you by ECIC and South Africa's Department of Trade & Industry welcomes you to Exile Africa 2023. Our keynote address considers:
Perception of risk in Africa is always higher than actual risk – but there are still some things to keep an eye on if you want to do business in the region. Our opening session brings you on a continent-wide tour of risk profiles and debt sustainability in Sub-Saharan Africa.
Sovereigns are the drivers behind projects in most African countries. Our keynote panel gathers key players from governments across the continent to consider:
Africa can be a challenging market for exporters; high risk perceptions mean that it can be hard to source financing and make the most of the ripe opportunities in the continent. This session asks both international exporters looking to the continent, and African exporters looking at inter-continental trade:
Simply put, most projects would not get done without DFI or MDB involvement. This session gathers leading DFI and multilateral voices active across Africa to ask:
ECAs remain a vital ingredient in African deals. This session brings together international ECAs to consider:
The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) should bring bountiful opportunities to local companies - but how can we connect these SMEs to financing? Given the tight criteria that international banks stick to, this session considers:
Despite often smaller ticket sizes, healthcare and social infrastructure projects are vital for Africa’s development. This session considers how we finance these projects:
The purpose of development finance is to support development - but how do we guarantee that our projects have a tangible social impact? This session considers:

When risks are high, support from agencies can make a huge difference to a project’s viability. Over the last years, we’ve seen ECAs and DFIs working together more and more to help mitigate risk on vital projects. This session considers the trend:

Welcome back to the second day of Africa 2023, brought to you by TXF, Proximo, and Uxolo
Russia's invasion of Ukraine sent shockwaves across the world but, over a year into the conflict, Africa's relationship with the country remains uncertain. This keynote considers:
Energy transition remains a global priority, but in Africa it is essential that this transition is ‘Just’. This session considers what the energy transition will look like in an African context, prioritising development whilst protecting communities most at risk of climate disaster.
Transport infrastructure is vital for connecting communities, economic empowerment, and Africa's energy transition. But how can we bring more projects to financial close? Here, we consider:
Africa’s resource riches make the metals and mining industry a key contributor to the region’s economy. This session considers:
It’s all very well generating power, but how do we transport it to communities? South Africa, in particular, is renowned for poor electricity transmission, but the issue pervades across the continent. This session considers:
Oil and gas revenues are vital for Africa's economy, although raising financing isn't always easy. This session looks at the oil and gas supply chain, considering:
