Mr. Goolam Ballim – Standard Bank Chief Economist
The coming years will witness an array of structural changes across geopolitical and socio-economic spheres and, while such tectonic shifts would trigger bouts of instability and spawn a plethora of risks, they could also spur new growth vectors that would boost human welfare. To be sure, the coming decades may witness socio-economic progress that surpasses the already extraordinary transformational gains of the latter half of the 20th century.
