Much is being written about the purported negative effects of prescribed assets on South African retirement funds. The ANC’s 2019 election manifesto hints at the introduction of prescribed assets that is, at its core, a call for allocating assets to impact investment opportunities in South Africa. There is research that highlights the benefits of impact investing, ranging from diversification, social and environmental upliftment, and enhanced returns. But, will impact investing really make a better South Africa?

Join RisCura as we host a session that looks at the big picture of impact investing, explores the goals behind the proposed prescription of assets and unpacks how members in the savings industry will be affected in years to come.

Kindly note that this is for institutional investors only.
