A2X CEO Kevin Brady: We're targeting 20% of total activity in SA equities market

Loading player...
JOHANNESBURG — JSE-rival A2X has started to build some serious momentum after launching in October 2017. Last week, A2X announced that Growthpoint would launch a secondary listing on the exchange. This comes after Sanlam also launched a secondary listing on A2X in April this year, becoming the biggest listing on the exchange. To date, 10 companies have listed and by introducing much cheaper fees, it's started to have a major impact on end-investors. And A2X CEO Kevin Brady tells me in this interview that more listings are in the pipeline. In fact, the exchange has big ambitions to ultimatly make up 20% of total activity in the SA equities market over the next 3-5 years. - Gareth van Zyl Learn more about your ad choices.
