Botswana was again ranked Africa’s 13th most attractive destination for investment in the latest edition of Rand Merchant Bank’s eagerly anticipated ‘Where to Invest in Africa’ survey.

RMB researchers ranked Botswana the most attractive destination for mining investors in Africa, basing their findings largely on the Fraser Institute Annual Survey of Mining Companies, which Botswana regularly tops.
