Dr Chris' Projection Tool

Dr Chris van der Merwe is the visionary founder of Curro and the driving force behind one of South Africa’s largest independent school groups. He is also the founding CEO of Stadio Holdings, a company that provides tertiary education in the independent space

What began as a simple idea shared with his wife on their Durbanville stoep in 1997 grew into a network of schools educating thousands of learners. Through his entrepreneurial spirit, passion for education, and innovative thinking, Dr Chris transformed a bold vision into a lasting legacy.

Creating Curro is one of the many beautiful phases in my life but I could never have achieved it without the teachers, parents, learners and investors who joined Curro in its phase of establishment.

How the Projection Is Calculated

  1. The first annual contribution is the monthly contribution multiplied by 12.
  2. Annual contributions increase by the inflation rate from Year 2 onward.
  3. Dividends are calculated on each year’s opening balance.
  4. Capital growth is calculated on each year’s opening balance and is not compounded monthly.
  5. Full decimal values are carried into the next year. Values are rounded only when displayed.
  6. In Year 1, the contribution establishes the closing balance. The Total Increase column reflects only dividend and capital growth for that first year, matching the supplied table.
