The compounding power of micro wins

Loading player...
Compounding is usually discussed and understood in financial terms, but is the effect of compounding behaviour equally as powerful? In this Kaya Biz conversation, we look at three Scenarios using the Allan Gray Balanced Fund to assess the impact of behaviour over the long term. We explore how small actions, consistency and steady progression can lead to positive long‑term outcomes.
