Introduction

The return of Donald J. Trump to the White House in 2024 has disrupted economic alliances. For Eastern Africa, with all its rich untapped valuable resources, this is the time to reinvent itself rather than retreat. As the world grapples with the implications of America’s inward turn, Eastern Africa must make sense of this uncertainty. It is a make or break for the region. For businesses and investors, the path forward demands a proactive and informed approach of the region’s shifting dynamics.

 

This newsletter looks into the expectations and navigation of challenges for businesses in Eastern Africa.
