EBnet.Stream: Power Plays & Pay Days, Episode 1: Bheki Mahlobo - Frans Cronje Private Clients

The team at EBnet is excited to launch our new series, Power Plays & Pay Days. In this series, Bheki Mahlobo, Frans Cronje Private Clients, and Leon Greyling go beyond the usual conversation and explore the political impacts that influence financial outcomes for South Africa’s investment markets, and consequently our members and clients. In this first episode, the conversation unpacks the economic trajectory of South Africa and how political policy has stalled growth from 5% and more in the 2000’s to below 1% where it is now. The opportunities are there and the answers are “simple” and “obvious” the question is, does the political will exist? Bheki shares how voters have punished the politicians who haven’t performed and sketches a scenario going forward.
