AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Critical Minerals: The World Bank plans to quintuple its critical-minerals business within five years, aiming to help resource-rich countries build local industries, create jobs and keep more value at home. Zambia and Malawi are among the first countries with compacts. West African Integration: ECOWAS and the Sahel Alliance agreed in Dakar to form joint working groups toward a framework for cooperation, a step toward preserving regional economic ties. Infrastructure: Tanzania has commissioned feasibility studies for a proposed 1,000-kilometre railway linking Mtwara Port with mineral and agricultural regions in the south. Investment: Tanzania’s Amsons Group is buying Oryx’s fuel business there for $230 million, while Aliko Dangote plans $50 billion in investment across Africa.
