Bourse Africa has developed a ‘hub and spoke’ business structure to facilitate its operations. A central, pan-African exchange and clearinghouse hub located in Botswana interconnects with exchange ‘spokes’ situated in African national economies. This is highlighted in the diagram below.
The hub and spoke structure is specifically designed to build liquidity from across Africa’s fragmented markets. It enables Bourse Africa to at once reap continental-scale synergies and liquidity whilst maintaining a rigorous focus on the individual needs of each African country.
