- In 2011 Paul will turn 45, Sasha will turn 35 and Byron will turn 25. The hunt is on for our next employee, he/she must have been born in 1996, ie. turning 15 this year.
- Paul has a brand new show on CNBC Africa called Mad Markets. You can catch him at 17h22 every workday afternoon for a daily dose of Mad Markets, and a there is a full half-hour show on Tuesdays at 20h30. It's the noisiest and most colourful show on business TV. Tune in to CNBC Africa on channel 410 on DStv.
- At 0.72 percent per annum, and no performance fees, Vestact is almost certainly the cheapest asset management solution for private clients in the South African market.
- Sasha can do amazing voice impersonations, and talks all day long. Byron still plays rugby in his spare time, and loves the bush. Paul is a marathon runner and grows orchids at home.
- Vestact offers investment accounts in New York, as well as here in Johannesburg, for those wishing to take up their offshore investment allowance. Through us, you can invest in companies like General Electric, Apple, Visa and McDonalds.
- We are relentlessly optimistic about global markets, the economic expansion of the developing world, and South Africa in particular. We love mobile technology, healthcare, commodities and aspirational consumer stocks. We steer clear of the tobacco, booze and gambling sectors, and all companies with very volatile earnings.
- We enjoy what we are doing so much that we plan to go on doing it for decades. Following market news on TV and the web, reading, Tweeting, and chatting to journalists and clients on the telephone - how great is that?!
- Sasha's daily market report (now incorporating Byron's Beats) has been published over 2,000 times over the past 8 years. We think that it is the best stock market blog, anywhere in the world.
- When Vestact was born in early 2003, we were based in an office 2 by 3 metres, without any windows. We had no clients. Now we have 795 clients and assets under management of just over R1 billion.
- The investment performance of our model portfolios since inception has sharply beaten that of the overall market, thanks to good stockpicking, re-investment of dividends and holding stocks patiently through trying times.
