Listen "Botswana Bets on the Future with a New Sovereign Wealth Fund"
Episode Synopsis
Across Africa, countries are rethinking how to manage their natural wealth. For years, mineral-rich nations have struggled to turn finite resources into lasting prosperity. Now, several governments are building sovereign wealth funds — long-term savings tools designed to secure economic independence for future generations.Botswana’s recent launch of a sovereign wealth fund is part of this continental shift toward greater economic foresight. The initiative reflects a determination to move beyond dependence on diamond exports and invest in long-term financial stability, ensuring that today’s mineral wealth becomes the foundation for tomorrow’s prosperity.
