The 3rd Annual North Africa Trade & Investment Conference will address the key trade and investment issues within the region, as the growing economies of Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria and Libya all open up to greater global integration. Nowhere was this more evident than during last year's conference, which welcomed an official Asian delegation of some 40 business leaders. This year's event will again stress the importance of global trade flows, particularly in terms of non-OECD (south-south) trade.
Leading issues to be discussed will include:
• How has regulatory liberalisation aided recent increases in trade volumes?
• Integration of trade and cash management capabilities to improve liquidity
• Increasing trade flows between other emerging markets such as Asia
• Opportunities provided for supply chain financing models and processes
• The growth of Islamic finance and adoption of Shariah-compliant financing models
• Political risk challenges and impact on the appeal of the North African market
• Attracting greater foreign direct investment into non-oil sectors
• Financing infrastructure projects and the subsequent impact on exports/imports
