Eighty-two percent of South African consumers indicated in a recent survey that their household income had been negatively impacted by Covid-19. In addition, 84 percent of these consumers were concerned about their ability to pay bills and loans, while 31 percent expected to run short within one month.<\/p>\n

Gary Kayle, the chief executive of Worth, said: \u201cWorth is Discovery Bank\u2019s financial education partner … We have witnessed first-hand how compelling financial education can radically change lives for the better. We boost financial knowledge and build wealth that lasts.\u201d<\/p>\n

Discovery Bank clients with Vitality Money could access Worth\u2019s Wealthy Me or Wealthy Couples courses at a discounted rate (Discovery Bank clients pay R399 and non-Discovery Bank clients pay R4 999).<\/p>\n

Worth\u2019s online courses teach individuals how to manage their money more effectively. The courses help people to master their finances and tackle spiralling debt. With a time investment of only six hours over 60 days, learners can alter their financial future.<\/p>\n

Cumulate has recently been selected for Endeavor\u2019s Local Scale Up programme, which is expediting the local and international growth of successful high-impact businesses. These are primarily tech-enabled businesses, built by experienced entrepreneurs, which scale quickly and outperform their peers, driving revenue growth and creating jobs. | Staff Reporter.<\/p>\n
