Join host Lyndsay Malchuk on Market Frontlines, recorded on location in Cape Town, for an exclusive interview with Nivaash Singh, Head of Mining & Critical Minerals in Investment Banking at Nedbank. As global powers scramble to secure supply chains for the green energy transition and the AI boom, Africa finds itself in the driver's seat. In this insightful conversation, Singh explains why the continent is finally negotiating from a position of strength, the critical role African banks must play in financing its own future, and how the competition between Eastern and Western capital is reshaping infrastructure from the Lobito Corridor to the copper belts of the DRC and Zambia.

Discover the three non-negotiable factors Nedbank vets before financing a project, why infrastructure for base metals like copper is a game-changer compared to gold, and just how exposed the global economy truly is to African production. If you want to understand the new geopolitics of resources and the financial engines powering it, this is a must-watch.
