Optasia hopes to raise about R1.3 billion to fund growth, while current shareholders will sell shares worth at least R5 billion. The offer, aimed at qualified investors, is priced between R15.50 and R19.00 a share, with final pricing to be set after demand is assessed.

In other interviews, Daniel Mminele, chairperson of the B20 South Africa Energy Mix and Just Transition Task Force, spoke about how Africa can position itself as a key player in the global energy transition. Mminele shares insights on what’s needed to mobilise sustainable finance, close the cost of capital gap, and ensure the continent attracts green investment.
