Based on over 100 hours of interviews with Bulelani Ngcuka, No Fear is unapologetically Bulelani’s story. Marion Sparg has written a biography from Ngcuka’s perspective; it is his story. In No Fear there is a hero and a villain; grand, sweeping historical background of South Africa and its parities; spies; political manoeuvring; murder; intrigue and love.

This is an inspiring story that shifts that narrative with its evidence of small beginnings, resilience and a social conscience in business .
A plucky team of South African entrepreneurs in the early 2000’s transformed a network of microlenders (or ‘loan sharks’) into a bank — Capitec — that succesfully challenged the country’s established instititutions. Capitec’s exponential growth is a case study in innovation with clear lessons about doing business in Africa.
