Africa is currently enjoying one of its best half-decades of economic growth, and the continent is generating greater investor interest, with record FDI flows registered in 2007. Natural resources and the services sectors have attracted most FDI, but the potential has, as yet, been only partly tapped. Such investment has the potential to generate more rapid development, but more needs to be done to ensure this potential is realised.
