The African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) and the Government of Saint Kitts and Nevis announce that the Fifth Annual AfriCaribbean Trade and Investment Forum (ACTIF2026), originally scheduled to take place from 29–31 July 2026 in Basseterre, Saint Kitts and Nevis, will no longer take place as earlier announced.
This decision has been taken following the latest updates from regional, continental and international public health authorities regarding the evolving public health situation in some parts of Africa. Out of caution, and with the health, safety and well-being of delegates, speakers, partners, sponsors and other participants in mind, Afreximbank and the Government of Saint Kitts and Nevis have agreed that the deferral of the Forum is the most responsible course of action at this time.
Both parties recognise and appreciate the significant interest, support and commitment demonstrated by delegates, sponsors, partners and stakeholders in preparation for ACTIF2026. The decision to defer the Forum was not taken lightly, and Afreximbank and the Government of Saint Kitts and Nevis sincerely regret any inconvenience this may cause.
Further updates will be communicated in due course through the official channels of Afreximbank and the Government of Saint Kitts and Nevis. Please refer to the ACTIF 2026 event website (https://actif2026.com).
