Easy Does It - A podcast by EasyEquities

If you didn’t know by now then here’s a declaration: EasyEquities is levelling up its operations to spread investment democratisation.
This is why we’ve invited Purple Group and EasyEquities’ new Chief Risk Officer, Nicola Comninos, to the studio for a fireside chat with us.
Nicola joined Team purple after 15 years at the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE), and gives us a new dimension through which to understand what ‘risk’ means (hint: it’s about both opportunities and threats).
She highlights how she has come to appreciate Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), running a womens’ empowerment investment club, and her view on Cryptocurrencies.
Tune into this episode to understand EasyEquities’ transition from being a startup to a scaled up international force making democratised investing a global movement.
