Dear reader, South-south cooperation has a growing influence on investment flows around the world. Yearly FDI statistics show an increasing share of emerging markets activities in other developing markets.

Sub-Saharan Africa is at the forefront of this development with several countries attracting billions from flourishing Asian economies, particularly China and India. Trade is skyrocketing between both.
