To what industries do you consult?
I typically consult to large financial institutions and multinational corporations.
Our services are designed to give you access to the political and economic information necessary to make successful investment and strategic decisions
I am an independent political and economic analyst and advisor with over 20 years of experience working with clients ranging from leading Fortune 500 companies to major banks and financial institutions and some of the world’s most influential governments.
I have lived and worked in both the USA and South Africa. For almost two decades I worked for Africa’s oldest research and policy think-tank where I established its risk advisory consultancy. I have drafted and/or edited hundreds of notes, reports, and analyses on subjects ranging from public opinion polling to education trends, electricity supply prognoses, growth forecasts, currency estimates, protest trends, security risks, China and Russia in Africa, global trade wars, Brexit predictions, US presidential elections, and global financial reversals.
I have briefed several hundred organizations and an estimated 30 000 people on scenarios for the world and South Africa and advised scores of firms on what they need to do to develop public policy strategies capable of safely navigating political icebergs whilst taking advantage of often equally hidden opportunities. I have authored three best-seller list books on the future of the world and South Africa and taught scenario-based strategy to the MBA program of a South African business school.

Yes.
No, neither I nor the firm have social media accounts or profiles.
Yes. Much of the work done by the firm revolves around producing heavily data-based and deep-dive strategic briefings on a once off or occasional basis.
In addition to once off or occasional briefings we offer tailor-made retainer-based advisory services starting at around R250 000 per annum.
