In the latest episode of Money, Markets, and Masterminds, Citywire South Africa editor Ruan Jooste is joined by Morningstar South Africa’s head of investments, Sean Neethling, to unpack one of the hottest topics in finance: the convergence of public and private markets. From hedge funds and venture capital creeping into retail portfolios to new benchmarks mixing SpaceX with the S&P 500, the duo explores whether this democratisation is truly empowering investors – or just adding more complexity.

Tune in for insights on fees, transparency, and what the shift could mean for South African portfolios.
