Experts meet in Nairobi for the 3rd Annual East Africa Trade ConferenceThe third annual East Africa Trade and Commodity Finance Conference (EATCF) will take place on Tuesday, 17 May 2011 at Fairmont, The Norfolk Hotel in Kenya. According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), members of the East African Community (EAC) are among the fastest growing economies in sub-Saharan Africa, and more broadly in the developing world. There is a strong consensus amongst political and business leaders that greater regional integration is key to enhancing Africa's global competitiveness as well as the promotion of intra-African trade. It is with this regard that the third annual EATCF will be held in Kenya with the aim of discussing the way forward in ensuring effective and efficient economic growth in the East African region. |
