  • Retiring in Africa: Cross-border lessons on building inclusive pension systems

    Retiring in Africa: Cross-border lessons on building inclusive pension systems
    Aug 14 2025
    In this special Money, Markets, and Masterminds roundtable, we take retirement planning beyond South Africa’s borders. Host Ruan Jooste is joined by Mtho Ncube, wealth manager and employee benefits consultant at GTC in Johannesburg; LeRoy Otenyo, employee and retirement benefits consultant at Zamara Group in Kenya; and Edmond Ade, certified financial planner and founder of Premier Private Wealth, with offices in Rwanda and South Africa, for a candid, qualitative look at how employee benefits and pension systems really work on the ground.

    From Rwanda’s government-matched micro-pension scheme to Kenya’s tech-driven push into the informal sector, to South Africa’s fee and access challenges, the panel unpacks shared hurdles – like low coverage and limited financial literacy – and the creative, culturally attuned solutions emerging across the continent. This is a conversation about lessons worth sharing, and how African markets can learn from each other to build more inclusive, sustainable retirement systems.

    In the latest Money, Markets, and Masterminds Long Game episode, economist and investment strategist Adrian Saville shares an evidence-based blueprint for transforming South Africa’s economy. Drawing on six decades of global data, he argues that high savings and investment rates, greater economic openness, and targeted sector development could halve unemployment within five years. From agriculture and tourism to digital banking and business process outsourcing, Saville outlines the practical steps—and public-private partnerships—needed to shift the country from stagnation to sustainable, inclusive prosperity.

    Mind Over Markets: Is the tide turning for US dominance?
    Aug 4 2025
    Emerging markets are making waves — and South Africa is riding high. In the latest Money, Markets, and Masterminds podcast, Citywire South Africa editor Ruan Jooste is joined by Sean Neethling, Head of Investments at Morningstar South Africa, to unpack why the MSCI EM Index is booming, how global capital is rotating away from the US, and what it means for local portfolios.

    From Latin America to the JSE, and from gold miners to tech giants, this episode explores where the value lies — and whether the so-called end of US exceptionalism is finally here. Neethling also explains Morningstar’s current allocation strategy, which markets they’re overweight, and how they’re balancing risk in a volatile world.
