| Abstract: | Heavily indebted and with puny domestic savings, Africa ought to offer attractions for interested foreign equity investors. Inflows have increased but local equity markets are thin and illiquid, privatizations halting and company research scanty. Funds with an Africa label feel obliged to buy something Africa-related. Have they always chosen wisely? The article explores this problem. The money these funds have to invest cannot be absorbed by the stock exchanges. |
