Bernard Swanepoel: Anatomy of a collapsed bubble - unpacking exotic game market
Loading player...
Bernard Swanepoel is best known for his building of Harmony Gold, creation and host of the Joburg Mining Indaba or as chairman of the Small Business Institute. But his family also owns a farm in the arid Limpopo province where they started breeding game two decades ago. For some years Swanepoel has been warning everyone who would care to listen that the exotic game market was a bubble waiting to burst. Now that prices have collapsed, in some cases by over 90%, on Rational Radio he unpacked how the financial disaster (for many) happened. - Alec Hogg
