In 2018, African heads of state signed an agreement that would bring to life the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA). This agreement will cover a market of more than 1.2 billion people and up to $3 trillion in combined GDP, with the potential of increasing intra-African trade by over 50 percent, according to the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa. AfCFTA is the largest free trade area in the world since the establishment of the World Trade Organization when it formally comes into force by 1st January, 2021. The agreement is projected to add over $76 billion in income to the rest of the world according to the World Bank.
