The business of health in Africa

This study, conducted by IFC with assistance from McKinsey & Company, estimates that over the next decade, $25-$30 billion in new investment will be needed in health care assets, including hospitals, clinics, and distribution warehouses, to meet the growing health care demands of Sub- Saharan Africa. This IFC report highlights the critical role the private sector can play in meeting the need for more and higher-quality health care in Sub- Saharan Africa. It also identifies policy changes that governments and international donors can make to enable the private sector to take on an ever more meaningful role in closing Africa's health care gap.
