Image

In ABSA’s latest Africa Financial Markets Index the Southern African country has came top in terms of financial market development. The Cyril Ramaphosa-led country was also ranked top in access to foreign exchange, market transparency, tax and regulatory environment and capacity of local investors. “South Africa has claimed top position mainly because of its sizeable lead in market depth and deep market liquidity supported by strong domestic investors,” the report noted. “South Africa’s high position on access to foreign exchange after having been overtaken by Kenya in the previous edition of this index was as a result of high interbank foreign exchange turnover, regular exchange rate reporting and a favorable reserve level relative to net portfolio flows.” The index described  South Africa  as having “deep market liquidity anchored by strong domestic investors” and noted that it has

Image
Yesterday, FIFA released the shortlists for ‘The Best FIFA Football Awards’ 2019. Out of the 10 names shortlisted for the ‘The Best FIFA Men’s Player’ category, Africa is fully represented by the duo of Egypt’s Mohamed Salah and Sengal’s Sadio ManĂ©. Aside from the fact that Liverpool came really close to winning the Premier League last season, Salah and ManĂ© had a superb outing in the tournament – each bagging 22 goals, tieing with Aubameyang for the highest goal-scorers. The two also combined forces to see that their club emerged winners of the Champions League. In the tournament, Salah was also fierce enough to register five goals for Liverpool, while ManĂ© was included as one of the five forwards in the squad of the season. Although the two Africans are contesting for the award alongside players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, they have more than a fighting chance, considering their individual accomplishments in Liverpool and on their national teams.

Highest earning Black Stand-up Comedians of 2019 - Forbes

Image
Forbes has released its list of the highest-earning stand-up comedians for 2019 with two black comedians taking the first and fourth spots respectively. Collated between June 1, 2018, and June 1, 2019, the figures, according to Forbes are pretax and exempt of agent, manager and lawyer fee deductions. For the aforementioned period in question, the comedians earned a total of $272 million, which was $20 million less than 2018’s total earnings. The slip was attributed to some of the most patronized stand-up comedians, including Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle, who earned $30 million and $35 million last year respectively not being really active within the period under review. Though actor and comedian Kevin Hart came under intense scrutiny after some homophobic tweets of his resurfaced when he was confirmed as host of the Oscars, it did not really have an effect on him being “cancelled” as he emerged as the highest-earning stand-up comedian, grossing $59 million.
