  • 1 Working Paper 11/2017 GROWTH and STRATEGIES of LARGE, LEAD FIRMS
    Working Paper 11/2017 GROWTH AND STRATEGIES OF LARGE, LEAD FIRMS - REMGRO LIMITED COMPANY ASSESSMENT Pamela Mondliwa, Nicholas Nhundu, Anthea Paelo, Mmamoletji Thosago and Thando Vilakazi Centre for Competition, Regulation and Economic Development, University of Johannesburg [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract The orientation and investment strategies of large firms are at the heart of how countries develop and industrialize. In South Africa, big businesses are now highly internationalised and the investments of lead firms can shape patterns of industrial development and subsequently its ability to embark on an inclusive, labour-absorptive growth trajectory. For industrial policy to be effective there is a critical need to understand the investment trends, strategies and decision-making of large firms, as the policy levers designed to influence the firms’ decisions are unlikely to be effective in the absence of such an understanding. This study focuses on analysing the behaviour and strategies of Remgro Limited over the period 2010 – 2015 as a case study for developing a system for tracking the behaviour of large, lead and dynamic firms across the economy, and abroad. The company is chosen as a large conglomerate group (controlled by the Rupert family) with substantial long-term investments held across several sectors in the South African economy, and abroad. The study uses publically available information from annual reports and announcements to assess whether investments made are largely local or abroad, in which sectors investments are focused and possible reasons why, the interaction of the company with government policies including BBBEE, and how influence exerted over investee companies, including through strategic board members and profit retention, can affect investment outcomes.
