ACCOUNTABLE GOVERNANCE TO SUPPORT THE TRANSFORMATION OF OUR FINANCIAL INDUSTRY

OUR SUPERVISORY COUNCIL

The Supervisory Council is composed of around thirty members, including central bank governors, regulators and executive leaders from the continent’s leading financial institutions. It is entrusted with setting AFIS’s overarching vision. As a consultative and strategic body, the Council ensures that the Summit’s strategic priorities remain responsive to an evolving financial landscape and aligned with the broader mission of achieving sustainable and inclusive economic growth in Africa.

OUR STEERING COMMITEE

The Steering Committee combines the expertise of around sixty senior experts from every sector of the African financial industry. Responsible for translating vision into action, the Committee holds regular meetings to develop and advance concrete proposals and initiatives, fostering collaboration and delivering practical solutions to strengthen Africa’s financial industry.

OUR ADVOCACY ROLE

Thanks to our powerful community, AFIS is a proactive advocate for Africa’s financial sector. We amplify the recommendations and insights shaped within our governance bodies and engage the wider African public through high-impact opinion pieces and thought leadership in major pan-African media outlets. This advocacy promotes transformative policies and encourages urgent action to drive meaningful financial improvement across the continent.
