In this episode of Ghost Stories with Trive South Africa CEO Travis Robson, we cover: An overview of Trive’s global business and the international perspective that the group is bringing to South Africa. The extent of the group’s investment in South Africa and the significant team that has been built in Trive South Africa, a show of faith in our economy and the strength of our financial markets. The focus on both technology and customer service to provide more sophisticated traders and investors with the potential to take their wealth beyond its current levels, particularly by finding the right mix. A discussion on the broker landscape in South Africa and what is needed to attract, retain and develop retail stockbroking clients. The unplanned creation of the Trust Trive with Travis hashtag – a tongue-in-cheek response to a business that genuinely wants to create a trusted brand in the market. Lessons learnt while building a startup within an international organisation. The benefits of bringing different cultures and backgrounds to a business. The concept of a “Trive Tribe” and the trading and investment community being built around the business, combining the best of Trive’s trading technology and its telephone broking / research offering. The reasons why people trade and invest, which often go beyond the financial incentivisation – for so many, the markets are a hobby and a great love, confirmed by Travis’ extensive research in our local market. The risk of gamification in trading platforms. For more information on Trive South Africa, visit the website at www.trive.co.za or check out their social media pages (@trive_sa).
