About APF

Independent analysis for real-world decisions.

Africa Policy Foundation is a think tank dedicated to advancing sound fiscal, monetary and public policy solutions across the continent.

Our founding team combines expertise in public finance, accounting and strategy consulting, monetary economics, taxation and international banking. We connect rigorous policy research with public commentary and direct engagement with policymakers and institutions.

Our vision

To be Africa’s leading independent voice on fiscal, monetary and public policy, bridging research and real-world decision-making.

Our focus

Four pillars of Africa’s economic governance.

We examine the policy choices and institutions that shape stability, opportunity and sustainable growth across Africa.

01

Fiscal Policy & Public Finance

Budget analysis, debt sustainability, tax policy and public expenditure review.

02

Monetary Policy & Financial Stability

Central bank policy, inflation, exchange-rate dynamics and financial-sector resilience.

03

Governance & Institutional Reform

Public-sector efficiency, regulatory design and institutional accountability.

04

Trade & Regional Integration

Cross-border trade policy and regional economic cooperation.

Publications & insights

Evidence for the public conversation.

Our analysis tests headline economic progress against the outcomes that matter: jobs, productive investment, institutional strength and household prosperity.
