TXF Cape Town 2018
Export and Project Finance
Nov 29, 2018
Cape Town, South Africa
TXF Cape Town 2018 returned on the 29th November for another exclusive look at the local market for export and project finance.
We gathered a delegation of senior leaders to celebrate an exciting year for South Africa and to plan future economic growth. Delegates enjoyed the lively interactive forum where they discussed some of the most pressing concerns facing the region today.
With a changing political landscape, hopes are high for South Africa. But how have the recent political changes actually affected deals? 
Will the promised reforms materialise? How will this affect South Africa? Could this impact inter-African trade?
Join us for:
-
healthy debate and predictions for the future of South African trade
-
intimate networking with international lenders keen to invest in South African business alongside local borrowers and exporters.
-
updates on the government's plans
-
a wider view of trade in the south of the continent
