Venue: http://www.privcap.com/programs/37-african-deal-flow

From January 13th, 2012 (6:44am) to January 13th, 2012 (6:44am)

“It’s hard not to have a rosy view of Africa when you see deal flow increasing every year,” says Runa Alam of Development Partners International. Deals are the core focus of the second program in Privcap’s three-part series on private equity in Africa. In “African Deal Flow,” three investment veterans share insights into private equity dealmaking across a continent of opportunity.  Hurley Doddy of Emerging Capital Partners, Graham Stokoe of Ernst & Young, and Runa Alam of Development Partners International discuss the robust deal flow in Africa and how investors there are sourcing opportunities. They also discuss the dynamics of the exit market for African businesses as well as increasing competition from other private equity firms and international corporate entities.
