Future Growth

AUM:$10 billion

Originally, Futuregrowth was founded to bring Michael Leeman’s honours thesis to life. Backed by Southern Life, the initial suite of funds focused on social development and empowerment. The aim was to make money for pension funds while investing in disadvantaged communities.

Futuregrowth manages around R170 billion of clients’ assets, across the full range of fixed interest and development funds, and plays a key leadership role in the asset management industry in South Africa.

During this time, and under the leadership of Paul Rackstraw and Andrew Canter, we have not waivered from our purpose: “to protect and grow investors’ savings through skill and diligence in a way that engenders trust and sustainably enriches people’s lives, while being a positive force in society, markets and for all our stakeholders”.

This purpose is based on the belief that investors can genuinely make a positive difference in society while earning sound investment performance for pension fund members.
