Whether you're just embarking on retirement planning or you're a seasoned investor, tune in to navigate the dynamic landscape of retirement and politics!
In this episode, we're joined by Daresh Lawengee, CEO of Rise EasyRetire, to delve deep into the fascinating intersection of retirement and politics.
Daresh kicks off the conversation by exploring why nearly half of working South Africans aren't saving for retirement and emphasizes the importance of starting early. Additionally, we examine how elections worldwide can potentially disrupt financial markets, what to anticipate as leadership transitions occur, and how Rise EasyRetire is navigating market fluctuations caused by geopolitical factors.
We also uncover the intricacies of the two-pot system as Daresh breaks it down and provides insights into its rollout. Lastly, we address proposed legislation that could mandate retirement funds to invest in public projects, shedding light on its implications for organizations like Rise EasyRetire and all South Africans.
