Magic Markets Ep180: Home Country Bias

2024-06-19T14:28:59+02:00

Home country bias is a real danger for investors. We tend to buy the brands we know, rather than taking an objective view on a global opportunity set. Global context is beyond important, particularly when you've had the benefit of engaging with investors and professionals in deep pools of capital like Europe and North America. In this episode, Mohammed Nalla and The Finance Ghost take advantage of recent travels to discuss how the South African market differs from global markets like the UK and America. For any investor serious about global wealth creation, this is a valuable discussion.

In Episode 118, we brought the sunshine to Magic Markets. Saul Maserow and Dino Zuccollo of Westbrooke Alternative Asset Management joined us to talk about Westbrooke’s response to the solar financing opportunity that has been thrust into the limelight (or sunlight?) by the failure of South Africa’s national power utility. Westbrooke’s approach is a little different, focusing on the equity layer in the capital stack. Equity can be difficult to raise, particularly as most funding in the market seems to focus on debt for these opportunities. Although Westbrooke’s activities in this space are not open to the public for investment, there [...]

A conservative approach to the balance sheet has also been key to success.In Episode 62 of Magic Markets, we welcomed Afrimat CEO and founder Andries van Heerden to [...]
