About this vertical

Urbanisation is Africa's defining structural economic story. Hundreds of millions of people are moving into cities, creating demand for housing, commercial real estate, transport infrastructure, and utilities at a scale the world has not seen in a generation. Africa INSIGHTS tracks this build: which projects are in pipeline, which cities are attracting capital, where occupancy benchmarks are shifting, and which infrastructure deals are moving through development finance pipelines.

Primary audience: For infrastructure fund managers, property developers, urban planners, development bank infrastructure desks, and REITs with Africa exposure.
