East African Business Summit Postponed to October 23rd – 25th 2014

The forthcoming East African Business Summit (EABS) due to be held in Kigali, Rwanda on June 4th to 6th 2014 has been postponed to October 23rd – 25th 2014.

The conveners have received numerous requests from various sponsors and delegates to have the dates moved given the proximity of this year’s summit to the recently concluded World Economic Forum in Nigeria where a good number of the target participants took part.  

The decision to move the Summit dates will add impetus to the objectives, discussions and outcomes while ensuring that the requisite impact as a sponsor is achieved.

Fitch Revises Tanzania Outlook to Positive, Affirms ‘B+’ Rating, Forecasts GDP Growth of 5.8% in 2026 Driven by Tourism and Mining

Fitch Ratings revised Tanzania's outlook to positive from stable while affirming the sovereign rating at 'B+', citing strengthening reserves and a gradual decline in government debt, warning, however, that the credit rating remains constrained by weak governance and low government revenue. The agency forecasts real GDP growth of 5.8% in 2026 and an average of 6.1% in 2027 and 2028, driven by public investment, tourism, the country's role as a regional logistics hub, and expansion in the mining sector.
