The Africa Investment Service Centre (AISC)

AIPA identified the need for an Africa Investment Service Centre if Africa is to move forward in attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). The Centre has been stimulated in part by knowledge accumulated through interaction with global investment Promotion Agencies and approaches made to AIPA for assistance from several African countries.

AIPA is convinced that virtually all the skills necessary to substantially provide effective FDI services exist within the continent and particularly, through certainly not exclusively, within South Africa.

It is envisaged that the Africa Investment Service Centre will provide a means to harness these skills and apply them effectively throughout Africa.
