The Covid-19 and economic crisis has taught investors to take nothing for granted, and planning ahead financially will at least allow us to regain some control of our lives.
Tax-free investing is offered by the government as a perk to encourage South Africans to save: up to R36,000 can be invested annually, tax free.
This releases the power of compound interest as the investor pays no tax on their investment gains, which includes interest income.
