Luanda, Angola's Capital to host AFIS 2026.
For its first four years, the architects of African finance gathered where the money was already comfortable.
They met in the established hubs of West Africa and the glittering corporate backdrops of the North. But this November, the Africa Financial Summit (AFIS) and its caravan of 1,250 policymakers, central bankers, investors and fintech disruptors are charting a new path. They are heading south to Luanda, Angola’s capital.
According to AFIS Deputy CEO, the choice is neither accidental nor merely geographical. It reflects Africa's search for a financial system capable of funding its own ambitions.
