Description

To unpack what’s really happening behind the numbers in South Africa’s private equity industry, Michael Avery sat down with Graham Stokoe, EY Africa’s Private Capital Leader. Despite weak fundraising in 2024, deal-making hit record levels, driven by infrastructure, energy and IT. They explore the rise of private credit, the growing influence of allocators, and the challenge of turning infrastructure needs into viable projects - while asking whether the industry can deliver both strong returns and lasting economic impact.
