While the economy grows at a snail's pace and employment increases, more and more South Africans are relying on informal mechanisms to create wealth and access to credit. To better understand these mechanisms, SaveAct has partnered with FinMark Trust to perform a qualitative study on the long-term impact of participation in these informal savings groups and stokvels.
Our panel of speakers includes:
Ms Silvia Storchi, lead researcher and PhD candidate, University of Bath Prof. Gerhard Coetzee, CGAP, World Bank Lumkile Mondi, Wits Business School Prof. Adrian Saville, GIBS
Be part of the launch of this groundbreaking study. We will discuss the insights provided by the research and the role of informal savings arrangements in financial inclusion.
