South Africa's sluggish economic growth since 2010 has left its citizens 40% poorer than the global average. Osagyefo Mazwai, investment strategist at Investec Wealth & Investment International told BizNews in an interview that the country's GDP per capita decoupled from global peers in 2010, with growth averaging just 1% annually compared to 4.5% for emerging markets. This has resulted in a nominal GDP of R7.4 trillion today, versus a potential R11.5 trillion had growth kept pace. The R5 trillion shortfall in government revenue could have reduced national debt and funded critical infrastructure, like Eskom's R400 billion transmission network expansion. He said key barriers to growth are energy shortages, logistics inefficiencies, crime, and an under-skilled workforce and called for urgent government action to stabilise electricity, improve logistics, reduce crime, and enhance workforce skills and to foster a business-friendly environment with less red tape.

In this What's Next with Aki Anastasiou interview, Itumeleng Merafe discusses the new Investec multicurrency pockets feature on the institution's Private Bank Accounts. Merafe is the Head of Private Bank SA at Investec — a position he has held since April 2024. He has worked at Investec for over 18 years in several other impactful roles, too, including Head of Sales: Investec for Business and Head: Treasury Restructuring.

He has also completed the Finance Executive Development Programme at Cass Business School, holds an ACI dealing certificate, and a Master's Degree in the Management of Finance and Investments.

He explains how this feature makes it easier to manage money in different currencies, and unpacks real-world examples of who would find this offering useful. Merafe then discusses how multicurrency pockets challenge the legacy model of needing multiple banks — or third-party apps — to manage different currencies. He also delves deeper into the technologies and innovations that power multicurrency pockets, and how they make switching between currencies so quick and seamless. Merafe talks about the importance of taking banking more digital and international, and explains how multicurrency pockets fit this trend perfectly. He concludes the discussion by explaining how Investec continues to balance cutting-edge technologies with the personal service that clients still value.
