We will announce it very soon,\u201d said Gemcorp\u2019s founder.<\/p>\n<p>On Angola\u2019s current economic situation, characterised by rising prices and sharp currency devaluation, he said he has a long-term vision for the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe started investing in Angola in 2014, and since then, the Angolan economy has gone through several cycles, some of greater difficulties and others of improvements. Our strategy is to be a long-term strategic partner. We believe in the potential of the Angolan economy. We believe that the country deserves the best, and for Angola to have the best, it needs investors like us to bring capital and knowledge,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are not concerned with short-term fluctuations, but rather that the government understands that it has to make the right structural reforms to attract investors and facilitate the coming of foreign investors and capital,\u201d he continued, stressing that Gemcorp wants to \u201ctake advantage of the opportunities that the market creates\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Presenting himself as a pan-African investor, the Gemcorp leader says he was aware of other countries in Africa, namely Mozambique.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, we are interested. We are identifying the right opportunities,\u201d he told Lusa.<\/p>\n<p>Kenya is another African country where Gemcorp is investing, having recently acquired a minority stake in one of Africa\u2019s largest wind power projects.<\/p>\n<p>Atanas Bostandjiev said that Africa is one of the central continents, but it is not the only focus of Gemcorp, which also looks to Eastern Europe (where he himself is from) and other emerging markets such as Southeast Asia and Latin America.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
