    International Finance Corporation: Africa Business Network

     
    http://www.ifc.org/abn
    A valuable resource for investors and small businesses operating in sub-Saharan Africa
    7/24/2000
    This comprehensive, attractive and easy-to-follow site offers an abundance of information targeted at investors in sub-Saharan Africa as well as proprietors of both small and large businesses operating in the region. Sponsored by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, the Africa Business Network (ABN) has organized its material into such categories as "Starting, Financing and Running Your Business," "Exchange Networks," "Investing in Africa," and more. Extremely helpful is the "Country Information Center," containing detailed business and economic information on 34 individual countries. "Reference & Publications" offers a library of publications, speeches and presentations from the IFC. (The keyword search function, however, was not working when we visited the site.) Also useful is the section "More Resources on Africa" with a good collection of links to online newspapers and magazines, Web sites and other information on the continent.
