   Show notes

   Stephen Grootes speaks to Paul O’Flaherty, CEO of Metair, about the growing crisis at the Port of Durban and the impact on South Africa’s automotive manufacturing industry. Metair says delays at the Durban Gateway Terminal are approaching 20 days, disrupting the arrival of vehicle components and raw materials, forcing the company to spend heavily on air freight and additional trucking. The group estimates these unrecoverable costs could reach 20% to 25% of its previous year's EBITDA, with meaningful improvement at the port not expected before the end of the first quarter of 2027. 

   In other interviews, Sue Cock, Music Director and Conductor of the Symphony Choir of Johannesburg, about the enduring appeal of classical music and how the industry is evolving. From the history and traditions of classical music to the growing range of live performances, smaller ensembles and changing audience tastes, is classical music finding new ways to remain relevant in a world where almost any musical performance is available at the touch of a button?

   Stephen Grootes speaks to Busisiwe Mavuso, CEO of Business Leadership South Africa (BLSA), about the business community's response to last week's municipal elections and what political parties should prioritise as coalition negotiations get underway. With several major metros facing another period of coalition governance, business is calling for stable leadership, functioning municipalities and reliable service delivery.

   In other interviews, Nicole Martens, Executive Director at Just Share talks about executive remuneration in corporate South Africa and the growing debate over whether CEOs are being paid too much. The issue has come under renewed scrutiny after Shoprite shareholders challenged a special share incentive potentially worth more than R176 million for CEO Pieter Engelbrecht. With executive pay packages reaching hundreds of millions of rand, questions are mounting over how these rewards are determined and how much influence ordinary shareholders really have over boardroom pay decisions.

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Fatima Vawda, Founder and CEO at 27four Investment Managers, about the growing concentration of South Africa's R8.4 trillion investment management industry. A new report by 27four Investment Managers reveals that just 20 firms control nearly 87% of assets under management, leaving 82 smaller managers competing for the remaining 13%. 

    In other interviews, Dr Nico Marais, Chairman of Carmel Wealth talks about whether buying art is a worthwhile investment or simply an expensive passion. While fine art is often promoted as a store of wealth and an alternative to traditional investments, high transaction costs, unpredictable resale values and limited liquidity can make financial returns difficult to achieve. With research showing that nearly half of artworks resold at major auctions made a loss, should investors be buying art to build wealth, or is its greatest return the pleasure of owning it?

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Rebone Tau, Political commentator and author of The Rise and Fall of the ANCYL and Miyelani Holeni, Group Chief Advisor at Ntiyiso Consulting Group about the early results of South Africa's municipal elections. The ANC is narrowly ahead of the DA but faces a significant decline in voter support, raising questions about the future of the country's major metros and the prospect of more coalition governments.

    In other interviews, Donald MacKay, Director at XA International Trade Advisors talks about the EU's investigation into hybrid vehicle imports and what it could mean for South Africa's automotive industry.

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Robert Attwell, CEO of Discovery Insure, about how South African motorists are changing their driving and refuelling habits in response to rising fuel prices. New data from Discovery shows that fuel purchases dropped 33% following October's price increase, while the number of trips fell by just 6%. Motorists are buying smaller amounts of fuel more frequently, with average monthly fuel spending climbing from R1,750 to as much as R2,700 since the start of 2025.

    In other interviews, Peter Tshisevhe, Director of TGR Attorneys talks about the growing number of international law firms scaling back their presence in South Africa. From the closure of A&O Shearman and Hogan Lovells' Johannesburg offices to Norton Rose Fulbright's South African operations becoming independent, the country's legal industry is undergoing a significant shift. Now, Linklaters and Webber Wentzel are ending their longstanding alliance.

However, governance reforms have slipped, efforts to tackle corruption remain stalled, and concerns are growing that South Africa could return to the FATF grey list.

    In other interviews, Mphilo Dlamini, Executive for Group Corporate Affairs at South African Airways (SAA) talks about growing concerns over the airline's financial position.

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Pick n Pay CEO Sean Summers about the retailer's latest interim results and progress in its turnaround strategy. The group has narrowed its headline loss by 31.9% to R299 million, while turnover increased 2.4% to R60.5 billion. However, Pick n Pay's core supermarket business remains under pressure, recording a R516 million trading loss, despite improved margins and tighter cost controls. With Boxer continuing to drive group profitability and online sales growing 35.4%, how close is Pick n Pay to returning to profitability?

    In other interviews, Greg Solomon, CEO of Pantry talks about how South Africa's petrol stations are evolving into major retail destinations. New research values the country's forecourt convenience store market at R42 billion, with 57% of shoppers visiting these stores at least once a week. As fuel price pressures squeeze consumers and competition from supermarkets, fast-food outlets and delivery apps intensifies, petrol stations are increasingly relying on convenience stores, takeaway meals and coffee sales to drive profitability.

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Duncan Pieterse,  Director-General of the National Treasury, Bobby Ramagwede, CEO of the Automobile Association and Sifiso Skenjana, economist and Managing Director of ESG Analytics about Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana's 2026 Medium-Term Budget Policy Statement. Government has announced R10 billion in temporary fuel levy relief, while stronger tax collections have helped stabilise public debt. However, Treasury has cut its economic growth forecast to 1.2%, raising questions about whether improving public finances can translate into meaningful economic growth and relief for struggling households.

    In other interviews, Darren Hele, CEO of Famous Brands talks about the group's interim results, which saw revenue increase 2.3% to R4.3 billion, while operating profit declined 4.7% amid weak consumer spending and rising costs. Despite the pressure on profitability, the owner of Steers, Debonairs Pizza and Wimpy more than doubled its free cash flow and increased its dividend.

    Show notes

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Isaac Matshego, Senior Economist at Nedbank, about what to expect from Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana's upcoming Medium-Term Budget Policy Statement. Despite pressure from rising fuel prices, inflation and global economic uncertainty, government finances have remained relatively stable, with tax collections holding up better than expected. However, slower economic growth, rising operating costs and pressure on government spending could complicate Treasury's plans to contain debt while maintaining public services.

    In other interviews,  Timothy Walker, International Relations Specialist talks about the future of the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most important oil shipping routes. HSBC's CEO believes the development of alternative routes could make the waterway redundant within five years, as geopolitical tensions force countries to rethink their dependence on it.

    Show notes

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Osagyefo Mazwai, Investment Strategist at Investec Wealth & Investment International, about South Africa's prospects of regaining its investment-grade credit rating by 2028. Investec believes there is a better than even chance of the country escaping junk status, following recent credit rating upgrades and improvements in fiscal management. However, with government debt approaching 79% of GDP and debt-servicing costs reaching R420 billion, further progress will depend on reducing debt, accelerating economic growth and maintaining political stability.

    In other interviews, Khaya Sithole, CA(SA) and Director at Corusca Consulting talks about how government departments and state companies have quietly funnelled nearly R70 billion to service providers without going to tender, by simply expanding existing contracts.
