Cape Town, South Africa. In an exclusive webinar on global and local investment planning, Wealth Migrate CEO Scott Picken, played host to acclaimed scenario planner Clem Sunter on 18 August 2021.
During this pre-recorded interview, Sunter identifies global and South African scenarios that could affect future investments. In particular, the flags to be aware of in assessing potential risks and opportunities, and he answers a few key questions from online viewers.
His most recent book co-authored by Mitch Ilbury, Thinking the Future: New Perspectives from the Shoulders of Giants, continues this futurologist theme on adaptable decision-making in a complex digital world. Published only in July 2021, this book has proven to be popular and is available in print and as a Kindle eBook.
Since the 1980s, Sunter has put together many possible scenarios for presentations as a keynote speaker in Europe, Asia, and Africa. He continues this legacy of exploring future possibilities as a prolific author of at least 17 books. In 2001, The Mind of a Fox, co-authored by ChantellIlbury, accurately captured the possible terrorist scenario of the 9/11 attacks on United States soil.
Sunter’s authority on scenario planning began when he was appointed to the positions of chairman and CEO at Anglo American’s Gold and Uranium division in South Africa. His primary responsibility was to head its scenario planning unit and guide its business strategy to mitigate risks.
