South Africa's broad-based black economic empowerment (B-BBEE) policy has got a bad rep because of corruption, the evidence of which is unfolding at the commission of inquiry into state capture, led by Judge Raymond Zondo, but we can't give up on it just yet, said Trevor Manuel.
Manuel was the country's longest serving finance minister and is the current chairperson of Old Mutual.
During a webinar, hosted by the Global Institute for Entrepreneurship and Ethics on Thursday, Manuel shared views on South Africa's economic past and future.
