  EBnet.Stream Special Industry Insights: Cuma Dube of Krutham

  Aug 18, 202633 min

  #Responsible Investing #Fiduciary Duty #ESG #SustainabilityIn this exclusive interview, EBnet and Pensions World SA speak with Cuma Dube, Head of ESG Advisory at Krutham and project manager of the newly released Responsible Investment in South Africa: Realities, Gaps and the Road Ahead report. Commissioned by the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) and produced independently by Krutham, the report is the first dedicated survey of how South African asset owners are actually implementing responsible investment principles. Drawing on responses from 109 organisations, it reveals widespread intent but uneven practice - and sets out a clear roadmap for regulators, industry bodies and asset owners. Cuma takes us behind the scenes of the research process, the methodology, the key findings, and what the gaps mean for trustees and investment decision-makers.Find the report at: https://www.ebnet.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/Responsible-Investment-in-South-Africa-August-2026.pdfFor more, subscribe to EBnet’s newsletter: https://www.ebnet.co.za/subscribe/#Responsible Investing #Fiduciary Duty #ESG #Sustainability

  Jul 28, 202626 min

  In this EBnet.Stream episode of Industry Insights, Kasief Isaacs, the CEO of Creation Capital, explains private credit as a solution for the underbanked SME and mid-corporate market sector.
