Bongani Bingwa speaks to Isaah Mhlanga, Chief Economist at RMB, about Africa’s shifting place in the global economy as outlined in RMB’s latest report, “Continent at a Crossroads: Africa’s Place in the World, Today and Tomorrow.” With the continent undergoing rapid transformation driven by population growth, urbanisation, and accelerating digital adoption, we unpack the most significant investment opportunities leading up to 2035 and the trends that will shape Africa’s economic trajectory. Mhlanga also explores how Africa can turn its young population into a competitive advantage, the role of technology in boosting global integration, how natural resources can be leveraged for sustainable development and the clean energy transition, and the key challenges,  from governance gaps to limited access to capital , that stand in the way of unlocking the continent’s full potential.
