Access Bank has announced plans to host the Africa Trade Conference in Cape Town, South Africa, reinforcing its commitment to promoting intra-African trade and economic collaboration. The event, scheduled for later this year, will bring together business leaders, policymakers, and financial experts from across the continent to discuss key issues affecting trade and investment in Africa.
The conference will focus on accelerating economic integration, strengthening regional trade agreements, and leveraging financial innovations to facilitate cross-border transactions.

Attendees will explore opportunities presented by the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) and discuss strategies for boosting Africa’s competitiveness in global markets.
With a strong presence in key African economies, Access Bank aims to use the platform to foster dialogue on trade financing, digital banking solutions, and sustainable investment models. The conference will also highlight case studies of successful trade partnerships and explore ways to enhance supply chain efficiencies across African markets.
As Africa continues to position itself as a major player in global trade, industry experts anticipate that this conference will play a crucial role in shaping policies and fostering new partnerships that drive economic growth on the continent.
