What happens when one of South Africa's leading market strategists spends over two decades transforming how an entire country invests? In this episode of the For This Reason Podcast, we sit down with Nerina Visser (CFA) — Director at ETFSA Portfolio Management Company and Middle East & Africa Representative on the CFA Institute's Presidents Council — for a masterclass on wealth, markets, and purpose.
