As the definitive successor to the highly successful Bullish Kenya series, this high-level convening acts as a strategic bridge, bringing together the most influential institutional investors and asset allocators on Wall Street with the CEOs, regulators, and finance ministers driving Africa's Capital Markets.
Bullish Africa is the evolution of the highly successful Bullish Kenya convening—expanding the conversation from a single market to the full breadth of Africa’s investment opportunity. Building on the momentum of 2025, the series now becomes a continental platform held on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York each September, bringing Africa’s capital markets story directly to the world’s most influential investors and policymakers.
The inaugural Bullish Kenya event, held on Thursday, September 25th, convened over 100 senior leaders across global finance, economics, and industry. Attendees and speakers represented institutions with more than US$50 trillion in assets under custody and over US$300 billion in direct assets under management, underscoring the depth and seriousness of global capital engagement. Participation included top-tier global firms such as JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, BNY Mellon, Wells Fargo, Banco Santander, Barclays, and Citigroup, among others.
The event was supported by leading Kenyan institutions including Safaricom PLC, KCB Group, the Kenya Investment Authority, and Hisa, reflecting strong public–private sector alignment in positioning Kenya—and Africa—as a credible destination for global capital.
Bullish Africa now scales this model—curating high-level, data-driven dialogue between global capital allocators and African markets—to position the continent not as a future opportunity, but as a present and investable one.
