“An economy that doesn’t learn how to invest in itself will always be dependent on others.” – Mthuli Ncube, Minister of Finance, Zimbabwe

True economic sovereignty begins with self-investment. Economies that rely too heavily on foreign capital remain vulnerable to external shocks, shifting interests & conditionality.

By building strong domestic capital markets & encouraging widespread participation, countries can chart their own path with the confidence, resources & commitment of their own people. Entrepreneurs are empowered when backed by savers & investors from within the same economy, creating a cycle of growth rooted in shared value.

The foundation for this is a safe, secure & transparent market system where people can invest with confidence. That is how we build resilient economies, from the inside out.
