Abstract
Foreign direct investments are expected to contribute to fill the huge infrastructure gap in sub-Saharan Africa, estimated at more than US$93 billion annually over the next 10 years according to the African Development Bank. At the last Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) held on 3–5 December 2015 in Johannesburg in South Africa, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced several measures to boost cooperation with Africa in the coming years to improve the business environment and support the industrialisation in African countries.
