African FX Partners

There are neat and cost-effective solutions to many of the under-lying FX volatility challenges. African FX Partners is a research consultancy dedicated to assessing the issues and presenting and explaining a range of practical and viable options to solving them. As well as the more traditional products such as spot, forward, non-deliverable forward, FX options and exotic FX options – across all major and emerging market currencies, there are many more service providers and strategies available than most companies seem to know of. Make sure that you are well-armed and well-informed against risk. African economies have been resilient and are once again gaining momentum. Real output growth is estimated to have increased 3.6 percent in 2017 and to accelerate to 4.1 percent in 2018 and 2019. By 2070, the bulk of the world's population growth is predicted to take place in Africa: of the additional 2.4 billion people projected between 2015 and 2050, 1.3 billion will be added in Africa. In a recent AVCA survey 69% of African investors cited FX as their primary investment concern. If you are already doing business in Africa you will appreciate both the opportunities presented by the economic and population growth and the issues with accessing yield and hedging interest rate and FX volatility. Hard-won financial returns need to be safe-guarded and visibility needs to be assured for the future.
