6th AFRICA FINANCE FESTIVAL (AFF) 2026

Uniting finance leaders, entrepreneurs, regulators and policymakers to drive African growth.
Theme: “Future Forward: Building Resilient, Sustainable & Digital Finance Systems for Africa”
The Africa Finance Festival (AFF) is a dynamic, continent-wide platform designed to bring together leaders, innovators, policymakers, and professionals from across the African finance ecosystem. Born from the evolution of the CFO & Public Finance Conference, AFF re-imagines finance convenings as immersive, multi-track experiences showcasing thought leadership, policy innovation, technology, and impact.

Africa’s economic growth hinges on robust financial systems.
