Catch the latest skoop on this week’s Bizskoops!
On this week’s Bizskoops, we look at the new race-based employment equity plans required under the amended Employment Equity Act for employers with more than 50 staff, as Chris Hattingh from the Centre for Risk Analysis explains the potential implications for companies and the wider economy.
Economist Professor Waldo Krugell joins us to reflect on one year of President Donald Trump’s renewed term in the White House and what his controversial economic and financial policies have meant for the US, the global economy and South Africa.
On the investment front, Todd Micklethwaite, Executive Head: Strategic Initiatives and Partnerships at Sanlam Investments, looks ahead to next month’s Africa's Green Economy Summit, exploring the emerging trends and technologies likely to define the next wave of green investment opportunities in Africa.
We hear from Hirander Misra, Chairperson and CEO of GMEX Group, on how traditional financial institutions and decentralised platforms can work together to create scalable, climate-positive investment opportunities across global and African markets.
Finally, we return to African trade corridors and freight infrastructure with Monray van Rooyen, Head of Business Development for Sub-Saharan Africa at DP World. He unpacks how DP World’s investments in economic zones and freight infrastructure are contributing to job creation and socio-economic development in sub-Saharan Africa.
