[In the face of weak growth globally, there is still an opportunity for Africa to further build upon the developmental successes it has enjoyed in recent decades. This introductory chapter provides an overview of the key areas of analysis located in the book, in particular an assessment of the African agricultural sector, the issues of poverty and inequality, banking and financial services, as well as opportunities for further international trade development in the region. The chapter highlights both areas of economic strength and vulnerability as well also providing an in depth assessment of various policy platforms that have been implemented in the region.]
