  ABSTRACT: There are many factors that entrepreneurs might consider before venturing into business. In the case of Africa, Africa’s expatriates usually consider factors such as control of corruption, peace, stability, and other control indicators are necessary conditions for building one’s confidence in venturing into doing business. Developing and implementing appropriate regulatory policies are excellent approaches to attracting business-oriented ex-pats. This will enhance business effectiveness and efficiency to boost economic growth in Africa. The study used the PLS-SEM approach to determine which variables had a significant impact on the ease of doing business in Africa. Findings make a significant contribution to existing knowledge on doing business. The research is in support of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 8. The results back country-specific policies to impel doing business and economic growth in Africa.
