Loading player...
As more capital flows into passive investment strategies locally and abroad, inevitably the debate sharpens as to whether passive or active portfolio management is better.

Helena Conradie chats to Candice Paine about why this is and how you could consider combing both active and passive funds in your portfolio. Learn more about your ad choices.
