At the 8th Africa-Singapore Business Forum, President John Dramani Mahama presented Ghana as the most reliable entry point for investors eyeing the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
He stressed that Accra's hosting of the AfCFTA Secretariat, combined with Ghana's ECOWAS access to over 400 million consumers, makes the country a natural hub for scaling across Africa.
Mahama pointed to the continent's strengths: a young, digitally connected population of 1.4 billion, a $3.4 trillion single market, and leadership in mobile money and fintech. "Africa is investable, and Ghana is your reliable gateway to the continent," he declared.
He urged stronger Africa-Asia collaboration, describing the two regions as the youngest and fastest-urbanising in the world, with complementary markets, resources, and expertise.
