Presenter Manuela Saragosa discusses how, with Diana Layfield, chief executive officer of Africa Operations at Standard Chartered Bank, Dr Iraj Abedian, chief executive officer of Pan-African Capital Holdings and Bob Collymore, chief executive officer of Kenya's Safaricom, which owns the M-Pesa mobile money transfer system.
