​Why does Stratum Bridge focus on Africa's emerging markets?

​

Stratum Bridge believes that over the next decade the best investment returns will be found in Africa's emerging markets. Our focus lies on Africa because there tends to be less information available on the opportunities and risks in these high-growth African markets. Stratum Bridge is working to provide a more nuanced perspective on how African countries differ from one another within individual regions. The markets we cover are where we call home & therefore dedicated to facilitating their growth.

 

These markets are:

​

• Stable, emerging and expanding African economies;

• Open to free trade
