The City of London, Kenya must build deeper partnership

Next year, London will host the first ever UK-Africa Investment Summit, bringing together businesses, governments and international institutions to encourage investment in a range of sectors that African countries have identified as their top priorities. The Summit offers Kenya an unrivalled global platform to attract international investment into the Big 4, the opportunities of which I saw first-hand last week on my visit to Nairobi.

As the Lord Mayor of London, I represent London’s financial district - the City of London or “the Square Mile” - championing the UK's financial and professional services sector at home and overseas.
