Company Announcement - Mergence Investment Managers has appointed Kasief Isaacs as portfolio manager responsible for infrastructure equity investments, in a move set to significantly boost the house’s existing specialisation in infrastructure and impact investing. Mr. Isaacs’s career spans more than 20 years, with a specific focus on the energy industry. He joins Mergence from PwC where he was a director in PwC’s Advisory Services business for three and a half years and developed and led PwC’s South African renewable energy practice.

He qualified as a Chartered Accountant in 1998 and has a BCom Honours degree from the University of the Western Cape. He started his career with PwC in South Africa before moving to the UK where he built up significant project management experience over nearly 10 years, managing projects and leading teams spanning several countries and multiple time-zones and languages.

Mr. Isaacs has advised extensively to both local and foreign developers, investors and contractors in the SA renewable energy market and has led the teams responsible for supporting 20 successful bids under South Africa’s Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement programme. These bids spanned a portfolio of wind and solar energy projects with services ranging from transaction advisory to project management and model audits.

Mr Isaacs is a regular commentator on the energy industry. He also serves on the advisory board of GreenCape, an agency that aims to unlock the manufacturing and employment potential in the green economy in the Western Cape.
