Originally scheduled to take place in May 2021, AFSIC (Africa Financial Services Investment Conference) Investing in Africa will focus on “strengthening trade and investment in Africa” with sessions on “sustainable” finance, financial technology (fintech) innovation, banking in Africa and “informed” investing.

In 2019, the event hosted approximately 1,000 delegates and 300 speakers.
