About Botswana

A combination of the spread of democracy, economic liberalization, privatization, infrastructure development, and the growth of consumer services and financial services groups positions Botswana as a strong and economically sound investment destination of choice.

Botswana’s central geographical positioning in Southern Africa, provides proximity to key Southern Africa Development Corporation (SADC) markets, including South Africa. SADC has an estimated market of 200 million people and the headquarters are located in Botswana.

SADC is currently enjoying satisfactory economic growth rates and provides an attractive opportunity for investors seeking to invest in emerging sectors such as mining, aviation leasing, consumer services, financial services and infrastructure.

As much as most of the countries in SADC and the immediate region beyond have small economies with relatively undeveloped financial systems and legal infrastructure, an opportunity exists for investors to use Botswana IFSC as a financial and business intermediary centre for investments into the region.

Botswana provides to the investor the most suitable and stable base from which to expand your business into the rest of Africa.
