Hywel George, Director of Investments at Old Mutual Investment Group, recently asked this very question. Is there hope for the South African economy? Are we on a slippery slope? Not quite. In fact, hope remains, and we could see an interesting turnaround in the future. 

In this episode, he joins The Money Show’s Bruce Whitfield to delve deeper into specific factors impacting on the South African economy today, from debt to a viable recovery plan. They also discuss whether the country has the political will to do what it takes to achieve this, and ultimately, whether there's any hope for our economy in the long run.
