Ernst & Young's 2011 Africa attractiveness survey

This report reflects, first, Africa's attractiveness for foreign direct investors and, second, the perceptions of, and outlook for, Africa and its peers across a representative panel of 562 international decision-makers. The results of our first Africa attractiveness survey highlight what over 500 business leaders had to say about Africa's growth story, the latest foreign direct investment (FDI) trends and the region’s growth potential. FDI flows have increased strongly in the past decade, investor perceptions of Africa are ever improving and the outlook is positive, with capital inflows forecast to reach US$150b by 2015. http://www.ey.com/Publication/vwLUAssets/2011_Africa_Attractiveness_Survey/$FILE/11EDA187_attractiveness_africa_low_resolution_final.pdf
