Top 5 African countries to invest in 2021
Africa as a continent has a huge potential for future growth. Which makes it a favourable place for investment I.e If you plan on extending your business to this part of the continent.
The research gathered by the UN Conference on Trade and Development between the year 2006 and 2017 reveals that Africa has realised an 11.4% rate profit for every foreign investment.
Also, Africa is so much populated with the youth, which is unfailingly the world’s market force if invested upon. Investing in Africa won’t just increase the wage rate for African countries it will also help reduce the rate of unemployment thereby increasing the workforce population.
Reasons to Invest in Africa
Africa is rich in resources and also ranked as number 1(one) in terms of economic growth. It’s a sneak peek that Africa is a favourable place not just to live but to also invest in and that’s why Shikana is a favourable place in East Africa(Tanzania) to invest in.
They are a law firm that provides both legal and business solutions to investors to avoid going that aims at investing in Africa. Here are a few reasons why you should invest in Africa:
Increasing workforce population
It is no doubt that Africa’s workforce population is mostly dominated by the youth and middle class which makes Africa the top 7 continents that have experienced economic growth in the entire globe.
That apart, there is a need for investors to invest in a viable continent like Africa because of the varied consumption rate by consumers here in Africa.
Consumers here in Africa are mostly of the middle class with a taste for quality and diversity, which is a potentially high-income rate for any investor that can look beyond the risk of investing in Africa.
Technological change
The use of technology in Africa is gradually rising. And the mobile networks that started in East Africa popped the global economy open. With the current century, we are in I.e 21st century. It will be rare not to see someone that owns a technological gadget with companies inclusive.
Many companies like Utiva now use technological gadgets to pass on knowledge to their students at their learning centres. Research done by Global system for mobile communications (GSMA) shows that there will be 475 million internet users in sub-Saharan Africa by 2025.
Slight debt levels
Compared to the other parts of the continent, the debt level of Africa is relatively low. Which makes headway for foreign investors. For instance, the UK’s debt level is about 70% while Africa’s debt level is about 16% which means that the taxes in Africa will be little compared to that of the Uk.
Paying up little taxes as an investor is not only a good thing for the company, it extends to providing a quality life for the people in the African countries.
How to invest in Africa
For a while, Africa has been quite frustrated by the war and regime changes which have driven few foreign investors away unlike. Contrary to Europe and America, Investing in Africa varies from investing in America because of their regions and resources.
For instance, South Africa is known for producing and mining raw materials like gold, diamond and platinum. For Northern Africa like Algeria, Egypt, Libya etc you will realise that they are known for the production of crude oil.
The easiest way to capitalize in Africa is through the ETF(Exchange Trust Fund) and mutual fund. These are Us stock exchanges that are being traded on their platforms. The good thing about this is that the cost is relatively low compared to creating a portfolio with foreign stocks that trade on the foreign stock exchange platforms.
