FurtherAfrica is a market intelligence platform covering finance, investment and development across the African continent. Founded in the UK in 2015, it has grown from a specialist blog into a full-scale intelligence platform, combining original analysis from a network of regional analysts with proprietary research tools developed by FurtherMarkets that monitor markets, detects trends and tracks capital flows across the continent — with particular depth in Southern Africa.
Our coverage spans the sectors where Africa’s growth story is being written: agriculture, banking and finance, energy, industry and commerce, infrastructure, mining, oil & gas, real estate, telecommunications, tourism, and transport & logistics.
With the world’s youngest population, set to double by 2045, Africa represents the future of global investment — from natural resources to human capital, it holds some of the most significant untapped opportunities of our time. Yet reliable, ground-level intelligence about these markets remains scarce.
FurtherAfrica exists to close that gap: every day, senior decision-makers in the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe, the Gulf and across Africa read our analysis to understand where the continent is heading — and where capital should follow.
FurtherAfrica is the founding platform of FurtherMarkets, a network of intelligence platforms covering the world’s growth markets, including FurtherArabia, FurtherAsia and FurtherBrazil.

How we work: technology built by FurtherMarkets
Every FurtherAfrica article is researched and prepared with publishing tools developed in-house by FurtherMarkets. These proprietary tools follow close to a hundred news, data and official sources across our markets around the clock. They check every figure against its source and its period, flag any date or claim a source does not support, and shape each story so readers, and the search and answer engines they use, get the facts first. An editor reviews every article before it is published.
The same technology powers FurtherMarkets Papers, our in-depth market research published in six languages, and the bespoke intelligence we prepare for companies, investors and institutions looking at Africa.
