Africa accounts for almost 20% of the world’s population, yet it currently attracts just 3% of global energy investment. The issue is particularly acute in Sub-Saharan Africa, where massive underinvestment in electricity infrastructure has created a persistent lack of electricity access. New research from Wood Mackenzie, commissioned by MOBILIST and Revego Fund Managers, estimates that the size of Africa’s investment opportunity in renewable energy represents a potential US$ 193 billion by 2031. https://lnkd.in/dq9SAigD Public markets offer access to the deep pools of capital needed to finance Africa’s renewable energy transition and can help address the need to create a robust secondary finance market to recycle and widen the capital pool available to the sector. This MOBILIST Research Note summarises the report and highlights that development finance actors have critical roles to play in building secondary markets to help finance SSA’s energy transition. https://lnkd.in/dbhfkvTH

MOBILIST is in Lagos to deepen our relationships in the Nigerian market. This week, two MOBILIST events in Nigeria’s financial hub brought together stakeholders from across the finance community to discuss opportunities to solve some of the principal barriers to increasing investment in the SDGs via public markets. The events were hosted by the Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX Group) and the British Deputy High Commission in Lagos. This comes after UK Foreign Secretary James Cleverly announced a partnership between MOBILIST and NGX during his visit to Nigeria last year. British Deputy High Commissioner Jonny Baxter, said: “A liquid and well-regulated capital market benefits the entire economy by enabling companies to raise capital to fund their expansion, which in turn helps deliver crucial development, job opportunities and improved incomes. “MOBILIST’s focus on stimulating the creation of innovative listed products can make a unique and impactful contribution to achieving these objectives.” UK in Nigeria Read more: https://lnkd.in/dYqXAnBA
