About us

The Africa investor Sovereign Wealth & Pension Fund Forum

A Forum for African Sovereign Wealth and Pension Funds (SWFs & PFs) to network and share best practices on key issues related to improving the investment environment for these funds in Africa.

Our foundations

Built on years of engagement with Africa’s long-term capital

The Forum builds on a series of Africa investor-led engagements and events for African SWF & PF leaders, to assess and determine their barriers to investing in infrastructure as an investable asset class.

Its work with the African Development Bank, African Union, the World Bank, NEPAD and the Continental Business Network is supported through engagements with a number of African Heads of State and Ministers of Finance, committed to facilitating institutional investment into African infrastructure as an investable asset class.
