MINDSPACE soundbite – What we must do now to secure better retirement futures

Loading player...
What must South Africa do now to secure better retirement futures? A panel discussion sought to answer this question at the second annual Old Mutual Thought Leaders Forum in August 2025. In this special MINDSPACE Soundbite, we share the engaging dialogue and sound clips from the conversation.

The panel comprised Astrid Ludin, Deputy Commissioner of the Financial Sector Conduct Authority; Chris Axelson, Deputy Director-General at the National Treasury; Shafeeq Abrahams, Chief Executive and Principal Officer of the Eskom Pension and Provident Fund; and Paul Watson, Principal at PDW Advisory in Australia. The discussion was moderated by Humphrey Mkwebu, Old Mutual Corporate’s Acting Managing Director.

How can we better prepare ourselves for further reforms, what did Two-Pot teach us about tech, and is auto-enrolment on the cards for South Africa? Listen to find out.
