Family businesses focus on ESG

There is a lot of wealth inside family businesses in South Africa. Outside of the listed markets there is a mature and dynamic base of medium to large sized family owned businesses that provide the South African economy with a degree of resilience. PwC recently released its next gen survey which speaks to owners of these family businesses and talks to them about their fears and aspiraitons in the current climate that is emerging from Covid uncertainty into a new uncretianty of rising global rates and geopolitical conflict driving energy prices higher. It’s a great pleasure to welcome Schalk Barnard, Africa Family Business Leader PwC South Africa; Ziana Somji, Strategy, Innovation & Sustainability at Freight Forwarders Kenya & Kallie Schoeman, Managing director Schoeman Farming Group
