Its investments in wireless data services company Rain, phosphate production company Kropz and digital financial services company Tymebank are providing ARC with good short- to medium-term prospects as they scale up and grow, said ARC Investments co-CEO Johan van Zyl during a presentation of the company's interim results on March 17.
