Berkshire Africa: Applying Berkshire Hathaway’s strategies toward investing in Africa

By Luni Libes and Jumaane Tafawa

There are dozens of automobile companies, dozens of airlines, over a thousand banks, hundreds of venture capital funds, and thousands of mutual funds. Furthermore, within each industry, there are the bid duopoly rivalries of Coca-Cola vs. Pepsi, Visa vs. Mastercard, and Mac vs. PC. There are even two big stock markets in the US. Meanwhile, Berkshire Hathaway is one of a kind. How can we apply the lessons from this highly success investment company toward investing in Africa? The goal of this book is explain that. To outline a playbook that could, given 60 years, repeat or exceed the success of Berkshire Hathaway, investing in the current and coming economic growth in Africa. That is a rather audacious goal, and as Warren Buffett would no doubt claim, highly speculative. But it is nonetheless a goal that the authors of this book believe not only possible, but necessary to speed up the economic growth across the continent.
