The G20 Compact with Africa was initiated under the German G20 Presidency to promote investment in Africa.
Its primary objective is to increase attractiveness for private investment through substantial improvements of the macro, business, and financing frameworks.
It brings together reform-minded African countries, international organizations, and bilateral partners from G20 and beyond to coordinate country-specific reform agendas, support respective policy measures and advertise investment opportunities to private investors.
The initiative is demand-driven and open to all African countries. So far, 11 African countries have joined: Benin, Côte d’Ivoire, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guinea, Morocco, Rwanda, Senegal, Togo, and Tunisia.
