Ubuntu philosophy

An African philosophical framework meaning 'I am because we are'—a relational ontology that rejects individualism and frames human flourishing as fundamentally interdependent and communal. Applied to finance, Ubuntu means your security and excess cannot be separated from the security and deprivation of your community, making inequality not just unfortunate but a violation of basic human connection.
