We catch up with our African expert Andreas Stargard of Primerio on our fourth quarter geopolitical check in. We learn the latest on the antitrust law in South Africa and how the public interest standard contributes to the marketplace, including updates on Kenya, COMESA and Competition Authority of Kenya, and recent anti-corruption efforts and the broader economic developments in the marketplace.
