The second episode of our 3-part special with Satrix’s Kingsley Williams, Chief Investment Officer, we talk about Index Tracking and what this really means.

We know that a good investor makes sure to diversify, but the sophisticated investor can do this through funds like Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs).

Our whole vibe is that we like to simplify things that are mystified, and one of the more intimidating concepts in the world of investing are ETFs and Index-Tracking.

The third and final episode in our 3-part special with Satrix’s Kingsley Williams, Chief Investment Officer, is all about Thematic Investing.

If you’re new to investing, then you’ll have to trust us when we say that Thematic Investing is one of the rare yet sexy investment philosophies out there, and we break it all down in this conversation.

By now you might be well-aware of what Megatrends are, but how can investors invest in a way that they can benefit from them?

Kingsley and the Satrix team answer that question in this very episode.

Simply put, a lot of us just want to know how to put together an investment strategy. This sounds more hectic than it actually is, because it really is all about you and doesn’t require advanced maths.

To help us understand how to do this, we reached out to Higgo van Biljon, the founder and CEO of FinMeUp: a finance-education app that connects you to finance professionals and puts a range of insights in the palm of your hands.

Using Warren Buffett as well as his own personal experience as a guide, Higgo tells the community about the importance in ETFs, doing research, understanding one’s own personality and goals, and coming to grips with the basics.

Tune into this episode to get some tips and tricks from an entrepreneur who applies a teacher’s outlook on the markets.

Will you, or won’t you? Well, you should definitely have a will, and we chatted to someone with the aim of getting you to take your estate planning seriously.

While at the Money Summit for 2022 we interviewed Samke Mhlongo, radio personality and founder of TNC (The Next Chapter) Wealth Partners, to chat to us about the importance of having a will.

Our chat covered why people tend to avoid this important process (guys, we even went into superstitions South Africans have around this type of thing!).

Make sure to listen to this episode to hear the top 5 reasons why people tend to avoid drafting wills. Trust us, it’s a fun and quick segment despite the association people have about this type of stuff. (And no we don’t talk about putting the ‘fun’ in funeral).

And if you are a Samke Mhlongo fan, make sure to check out this episode because she drops even more humorous gems about personal finance as a young woman navigating the world at large.

We went to the Money Summit to catch some insights from a range of people attending the annual LeaderEx event hosted at Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg.

This episode is part 2 of our coverage at the summit, and we were even more blown away by the people who are as passionate about financial education as we are!

We chatted to TV hosts and lawyers hailing from Klerksdorp to corporate executives, as well as summit visitors and more.

Same as in part 1, we continued asking personal questions from the people we came across, and for their tips about building a solid relationship with finance.

We went to the Money Summit to catch some insights from a range of people attending the annual LeaderEx event hosted at Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg.

From exhibitors and businesspeople to investors and students, we hit up folks randomly walking by the Youth Money Circle stand to just give us their thoughts about finance and investing.

In this episode, which is part 1 in our coverage of the summit, we fished for peoples’ knowledge about property, parenting and finance, Cryptocurrencies, networking and a whole lot more.

A common theme we found in this stream of conversations is that many people want to improve their relationships with money. Hit play to hear about the wide variety of people looking to constantly improve and grow their money.

Higgo van Biljon, the founder and CEO of financial education app, FinMeUp, joins us for a session to give us a peek inside his personal investment pot.

We turn the stove all the way up as Higgo gives us the secret ingredients  that make his portfolio magic. We go from Tesla to Purple Group, to some crypto as well as ETFs and the value of these types of instruments.

Higgo also gives us a different type of peek by showing us what he and the guys behind the FinMeUp app have up their sleeves for the fast-growing app.

At the latest LeaderEx Money Summit we managed to grab Bonang Mohale to offer up his insights into leadership and wealth creation.

Who is Bonang Mohale?

He is a famed businessman, CEO of Business Leadership South Africa, Chancellor of University of Free State, best-selling author, and non-executive director of Purple Group (among a host of other companies). That’s a lot of cred right? We’ve only scratched the
surface! Mr Mohale talks wealth, his personal journey, and the motivation he has used to rise into becoming a business heavyweight in South Africa.

If you are a dreamer, doer, and aspiring investor, then you definitely don’t want to miss this short yet inspirational and powerful conversation!

Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are an investment vehicle that many pros in the industry love because they contain many shares in on product. To chat about some of the hottest ETFs, we invited Satrix’s Quantitative Portfolio Analyst, Siyabulela Nomoyi.

We talk about the best performing ETFs for the month of August, the value of investing in offshore (international) ETFs, as well as Satrix’s own moves in the space over the last year.

In particular for Heritage month, we spotlight the Satrix Capped All Share Index ETF, which is a super diversified investment containing large to smaller companies within the fund, which is pretty rare in SA. Until December 2022, this ETF will cost 0% TER, and Siya breaks down exactly what this ‘TER’ means.

Did you know that Satrix accounts for 26 of the 90 ETFs listed on the JSE? If you want to compare all 90 ETFs against each other, make sure to check out the EasyETFs portal.
