Economics editor of the Financial Mail, Claire Bisseker, has had her eye on the state of South Africa’s economy since her days of studying at the University of Natal. Armed with years of experience, awards and being on the frontlines of major transitions – she has recently penned ‘On The Brink’ which answers how the nation landed up in its current standing, and what we can do to pull it back from the brink. Gareth speaks to her about this, her opinions on the likes of Minister Malusi Gigaba and Mcebisi Jonas, the mismanagement at Eskom, and why she backs an International Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout.
