BNC#9 | Roodt Q&A: What he'd do as FinMin; SARB's crypto plan; SA's shrinking tax base and more...

The taxman, the Reserve Bank and your crypto wallet: Dawie Roodt doesn't hold back. In this Q&A straight after his BNC#9 keynote, the Efficient Group chief economist explains why officials want your phone and your passwords if you try to take money offshore, why roughly 200 000 taxpayers are propping up the entire country, and why he thinks the new Transformation Fund could spell the end of BEE as we know it. Along the way: a blunt take on land versus cattle, why South African schools spend big and still underperform, and why he'd rather fix the tax code than lower the tax burden.
