About

Expanding, operating and scaling a global business in emerging markets, in particular Africa, present a unique set of challenges to corporate: high-interest rates, market volatility, lack of global banking partners, foreign exchange controls, high cross-border transaction costs, long settlement time for international payments/ transactions and complex FX compliance and regulatory frameworks are typically top of mind for corporates with growth ambitions across Africa.

Despite these challenges, the attractions of a large and rapidly growing consumer base, low labour cost, abundant natural resources, high margins and significant growth potential continue to make Africa of strategic importance to corporates.

There are many ways that treasurers and CFOs can approach doing business in Africa that ease some of these burdens, such as understanding the African cross-border payment landscape, treasury management solutions offered by financial technology, regulatory and compliance frameworks and how various business types can maximise their growth ambition in Africa by collaborating with the right cross-border payment partner.

Join this VertoFX and Global Treasurer webinar as we explore insights to help to grow and win across Africa:

  • Big tech and the importance of payments in unlocking the next 1 billion consumers

  • Scaling an e-commerce business in Africa

  • Unlocking frictionless cross-border payments in and out of Africa

  • How MNCs can manage liquidity risk through technology

  • Tackling regulatory and infrastructural challenges of pan-African growth
