Everybody tells you to “just buy ETFs”, but which ones, how many, and in what order?
In this Power Hour, Simon Brown breaks down how to build a complete ETF portfolio from the ground up: the single fund that can do most of the heavy lifting, what to add as your money grows, and how local and offshore pieces fit together. He covers the difference between core holdings and satellites, when a second or third ETF actually earns its place, and the common mistakes that quietly cost you returns.
Whether you are starting with your first R1,000 or rebalancing a six-figure portfolio, you will leave with a clear framework you can act on.

Power Hour

The Power Hour started in 2011 with top industry experts presenting to private investors on financial issues closest to their heart. Power Hours are now both live in-person presentations in Johannesburg, and broadcast live online.
