Capitalism’s ultimate disruptor: Oxfam’s billionaire-shaming Winnie Byanyima
Loading player...
Spending a half hour with Oxfam’s executive director Winnie Byanyima was a definite Davos 2017 highlight. The feisty 58-year old Ugandan is a warrior. She goes into battle publicly and privately to promote the cause of the poor and was a huge draw this year after Oxfam’s latest research which claims 8 super-billionaires have the same wealth as half the world’s population. As you’ll hear in the interview, we sparred on that subject and on shareholder returns, but for the most part there was violent agreement. This was a peach of a chat. Well worth investing some time listening in. – Alec Hogg
