Key Drivers of Growth Still underwritten by natural resources and commodities in many countries; impact of commodity price decline Growth also due to improved macroeconomic, business and investment frameworks Capital inflows from BRICS, new players, traditional players Deepening capital markets growing equity culture Remittances as a capital provider Rollout of sizeable infrastructure development projects Slowly improving intra-regional trade networks, integration policies Changing demographics, including urbanisation and population growth Emergence of African multinationals

Sectoral Drivers of Growth Commodities remain a key driver of growth, with mining driving growth in resource-rich countries and new oil & gas fields coming on stream; 17% of global exploration expenditure and mining investment during 2013 (up from 5% in 1990s) Agriculture constitutes large share of a number of countries economies but still underperforms and is subject to nature; Africa remains net food importer Manufacturing still lagging other regions given weak industrial infrastructure (bottlenecks, power shortages, red tape for investors) Infrastructure financing gap increasingly met by non-oecd financiers; link to resources, regional integration; focus on power, ICT, natural gas, rail Consumer goods supported by rising GDP per capita, strong population growth and urbanisation (50% urban by 2035); small real middle class, however; consumer expenditure expected to accelerate from US$600bn in 2010 to US$1tr in 2020 Services are improving, including transport, real estate, financial, trade and especially ICT services; with greater diffusion of mobile phones and PCs

Population Growth in Africa Population Growth (2015f-2020f) As three of the four most populous nations, Nigeria, Ethiopia and DRC also have the fastest-growing populations. The highest population growth rates until 2020 are expected to be seen in Eritrea, Mali, Niger and Zambia.

Population by Age Population Younger than 30 Years of Age (% share) (2025f) By 2025, most of Africa s population will be under the age of 30. Countries that are able to provide education and skills training to these youth bulges could see the youth bulge mature into a worker bulge.

Strategies for Growth Markets
The First Mover Advantage
Contents Investing in Africa Why do Foreign Investors Fail in Africa? Replicate a foreign strategy Too much theory, too little local knowledge and experience Lack of flexibility Lack of cultural understanding Difficult operating and business environments including lack of infrastructure services, lack of distribution channels Don t know how to deal with the diversity of the continent Risks of being a first mover
Contents Investing in Africa Succeeding will require: First-hand experience Although investing in data sources and expert information is recommended, visiting local resellers and experiencing how the market operates allows companies to gain first hand knowledge. The right partner Finding the right partner is a strategic endeavour. Partnerships in African markets are likely to require long-term commitments. Companies need to find partners that share their values. Localisation Adapting product/services to needs of local customer as well as investing in local community (e.g. Coca Cola; Unilever) and working together with governments. Taking a holistic and long-term view Long-term talent investment With high annual growth and competitors seemingly appearing overnight, firms need to plan to both attract and retain top talent in the long term.
Introduction to Emerging Markets Success Factors Networks/ Relationships Competent sales people Effective leadership Establish business relationships with local suppliers Primary data-driven research Appropriate timing of entrance Identify potential customers Ample financial resources Glocalisation vs reverse innovation Local strategic knowledge to bridge the gap between guessing and knowing Offer a valuable product/ service
