JOHANNESBURG — Amid the legendary Stephen Koseff stepping down officially from Investec on 1 October 2018, there's a group of executives about to move up the ranks at the financial institution. One of those executives is John Green who, come 1 October, will along with Mimi Ferrini be stepping up to be joint-CEO of Investec Asset Management. In turn, Hendrik du Toit, the current Investec Asset Management CEO, will take over from Stephen Koseff as joint CEO. The other joint CEO with du Toit will be Fani Titi. So, it was a great opportunity then to interview John Green this week on a new China-Africa agreement that Investec Asset Management has interestingly struck, as well as his views on the current state of the SA economy. – Gareth van Zyl

I have John Green, who is the deputy CEO at Investec Asset Management on the line with me from Cape Town. John, welcome to the podcast. Now, we're going to chat about the strategic partnership that Investec has signed with the China-Africa Development Fund a little later, but you were in China last week where you attended the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC). You also attended a business breakfast hosted by President Cyril Ramaphosa. What key take-aways did you have, upon returning to SA from your trip?
