Gateway to the continent
Africa has been called the last frontier for investors and a consumer market of note. South Africa is considered a gateway to the continent. Understanding this emerging market and society in transition is important to anyone who is interested investment and business opportunities in Africa. The study trip programme in Cape Town builds on this foundation around the following themes:
- South Africa’s economy and financial markets in the global context
- Corporate finance in an emerging market context
- Private equity and venture capital in South Africa.
- Sustainable investment and corporate governance.
- Retail banking in lower-income markets: How to redefine financial services to make them work for the poor?
The Cape Town programme is hosted by MEA Global Education in cooperation with the UCT Graduate School of Business.
