MN Capital chief executive officer, Michael Ndinisa

INVESTORS and policy makers are set to converge in Harare for the inaugural Zimbabwe Institutional Investors Forum in July to forge investment opportunities, courtesy of MN Capital Group, an Africa-focused investment communication and support business group.

Running under the theme; “Rethinking Investment Returns in the New Normal, Investing for Impact”, the forum will be held on July 25 and 26.

MN Capital chief executive officer, Michael Ndinisa, said integrating environmental, social, and governance into investment strategy and climate change, macro-economic policies and development, and the state of Zimbabwe investment are some of the many topics for discussion.

“Zimbabwe is unique as an investment destination with unique challenges, opportunists and threats,” he said.

“It is important for the benefit of institutional investors, both local and international, to have access to realistic data as far as the state of the economy is concerned. Stakeholder engagement curated to allow interactions and participation will be a way to gain access to those country-specific data

“In the post-pandemic world, governments across the world are intensifying their economic recovery and development efforts in order to significantly reduce socio-economic challenges that may, or not, have been caused by the recent global pandemic, but have been exacerbated as a result.

“This presents new investment opportunities for institutional investors that will enable them to reach their financial returns targets whilst generating social impact.”

Sanlam independent non-executive member who is also chairperson of Absa Asset Management, Elias Masilela, Rodney Ndamba Chief Executive Officer, Institute of Sustainability Africa, Gerson Kamatuka chairperson, Umbrella Fund and  Cuma Dube a senior ESG specialist make up the list of speakers at the forum.

Amongst those invited are senior policy makers as well as industry regulators, pension funds, endowment and foundations professionals, sovereign security funds, social security funds, insurance companies, securities firms, development finance institutions and asset and fund managers.
