<p>Satrix launched SatrixNOW in December 2015, together with then fintech start-up, EasyEquities. Says Satrix CEO, Helena Conradie “The ability to offer our clients NO MINIMUMS was a game-changer not only for Satrix, but for the entire South African investment industry. We knew at that time that EasyEquities offered exactly what we needed in a fintech partner. Now we’re consolidating our clients on a single online platform that offers access to all. The potential benefit that this consolidation and strengthened partnership brings to the client experience is another exciting milestone for the business.”</p>

<p>Sanlam, who owns 100% of Satrix, strengthened the partnership in 2017 by acquiring a 30% stake in EasyEquities. Charles Savage, CEO at EasyEquities comments “This is a great example of what you can achieve when two companies partner with a shared purpose to democratise all things investing. This brings total assets across all Easy platforms to over R16 billion, a massive milestone which could never have happened without our wonderful partners in Satrix and shareholder in Sanlam.”</p>

<p>Access and inclusion for the man on the street has always been a key focus for Satrix. Satrix listed the very first ETF in South Africa in November 2000. The index business is celebrating its 20^th anniversary this year and has reached assets under management of R100 billion.</p>
