Anton Bredell, Western Cape Minister for Local Government, Environmental Affairs and Development Planning, alongside Deidre Baartman, Minister of Finance, applauded Rand Merchant Bank (RMB) for recently launching the Cape Water Nature-Linked Outcomes-Based Bond.
“In terms of the Western Cape’s Water Resilience Strategy, clearing of alien invasive plants is one of the most cost-effective ways to increase streamflow into our dams. This financial innovation ensures that current initiatives can scale up significantly, protecting the water supply for millions of residents and for our economy, including our vital agricultural sector,” Minister Bredell said.
