For South Africans, investing has always been a global game. This is not only because Regulation 28 of the Pension Funds Act has allowed investors to include up to 45% offshore assets in their portfolios for the last three years. It is also because South Africa’s economy and stock market are small compared to the rest of the world. Furthermore, the JSE itself is becoming increasingly global in nature.

Today’s investment landscape is increasingly complex for South African investors. Heightened market volatility and political uncertainty make portfolio management more challenging. Offshore investing remains a critically relevant strategy for preserving and growing wealth while managing risk. Diversifying offshore is not just a luxury; it has become a necessary consideration for prudent investors.
