emerging Africa – ” . . . Africa is arguably the most exciting opportunity for the next century.  Why?  –   In one word: demographics.

“In Africa, the “young continent,” projections are for the African population to exponentially grow from current levels, close to Europe, to four times the size, and approaching Asia, in the next 100 years (see Figure 3),” said Citi’s Philip Watson.

“The emergence of the Africa demographic boom, with its underdeveloped infrastructure and untapped resources, suggests a period of rapid growth for those African economies that are increasingly well-managed,” he added.
