“A nation’s wealth is not in its resources, but in its ability to manage them.” – Mokgweetsi Masisi, Former President of Botswana

The real wealth of a nation is its people, their capacity, vision and discipline to transform resources into enduring prosperity. Natural endowments can be squandered, but strong institutions, discipline and long-term planning can convert resources into productive assets, diversified industries and real opportunities for citizens.

Capital markets provide the framework to capture this potential by turning volatile resource revenues into long-term investments that build for future generations. Financial literacy is foundational to the development of the skills to manage, conserve and grow wealth ensuring resources fund tomorrow’s progress and not just today’s consumption.
