Africa

Monitor was one of the first US firms to open an office in South Africa immediately after the end of apartheid, and we continue to be deeply interested in the development of the African continent as a whole. Our work on urbanization, economic development and global macro-economic scenarios convinces us that Africa will be one of the main sites of the next wave of global economic development.

Multinational corporations, governments, and philanthropic organizations are all rightly taking a close look at their Africa strategies. We stand ready to assist those organizations based on our involvement across the region.
