Adèle Hattingh, Specialist Securities Manager at the JSE, said, “For South African investors, AMETFs have become an increasingly practical way to build diversified portfolios, including offshore exposure, while investing locally and in rand. The ETFSA Oyster Global Balanced Prescient AMETF continues that trend by offering access to a portfolio with a strong global orientation through a familiar exchange-traded format.”
Over the past 25 years, the JSE’s ETF market has grown substantially, broadening investor access to local and global equities, bonds, commodities, property and multi‑asset strategies.
