  • The Guptas, the Public Protector's Report and Capital Accumulation In
    The Guptas, the Public Protector’s Report and Capital Accumulation in South Africa Ashwin Desai Goolam Vahed Abstract The relationship between South African President Jacob Zuma and his family, and the Guptas, possibly the richest family of Indian origin at present in South Africa, has made persistent national and increasingly international headlines in the media over the past few years. The Gupta family, who arrived in South Africa from India just prior to the country’s first non-racial democratic elec- tions in 1994, are accused of colluding with Zuma in the removal and appoint- ment of government ministers, as well as the directors of State-Owned Enter- prises (SOEs) in order to secure lucrative state contracts. This article examines the allegedly corrupt relationship between the Zumas and the Guptas to probe key issues in post-apartheid South African society: corruption, state capture, inequality, class formation, Black Economic Empowerment, and White Mono- poly Capital. It argues that corruption has negative consequences such as creat- ing despondency amongst the populace leading to capital flight and creating the possibilities for state capture as well as further deepening inequality. Keywords: Apartheid, Gupta, Zuma, Black Economic Empowerment, White Monopoly Capital, Social Cohesion The lexicon of South African English has been constantly transformed by the inclusion of words from the Afrikaans language, and phrases from the Indian sub- continent, as well as by some words and phrases from local African languages.

  • AGM QUESTIONS and ANSWERS 2020 Disclaimer
    AGM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 2020 Disclaimer Please note that the answers recorded herein are not a transcript of the AGM. The responses recorded convey the key messages that were communicated. QUESTIONS RECEIVED AT THE WEBCAST AGM AND ANSWERS – 30 NOVEMBER 2020 Questions regarding driving value creation through share ownership and “employee capitalism”: Q:At the 2019 AGM the Chairman spoke powerfully on share ownership inter alia “if the directors all owned a lot of shares they would watch the management and make sure that they get performance”. Numerous great companies practice what the Chairman preaches e.g. Amazon directors receive no cash compensation only stock based awards, Ball Corp, John Deere and Diageo expect their directors to own hefty multiples of their annual remuneration in shares and locally FirstRand as per page 108 of the FirstRand Integrated Report has “minimum shareholding requirements to ensure longer term alignment’. In the light of the above can the Chairman please advise why Remgro does not make minimum shareholding requirements another strategic priority at investee companies? – Chris Logan Mr Rupert noted that it was a very good question that Mr Durand should investigate further, as he is fully aligned with A: Mr Logan. Mr Durand also agreed with the principle and noted that Remgro would investigate this further as it is a pertinent point. The Chairman also endorsed aligned incentives/EVA and Remgro has led and adopted aligned incentives for managers Q:as a strategic priority at investee companies. To enhance performance further and to promote “employee capitalism” why does Remgro not try and ensure that this incentivisation goes all the way down to the shop floor on a commercial basis as is an integral part of EVA theory and is successfully practiced at great companies like Ball Corp (unions included) and top performing local chicken producer Astral as per page 90 of the Astral Integrated Report? – Chris Logan Mr Rupert noted that in his experience, the trade unions generally preferred to receive cash instead of shares.

  • Work Ethic, Education and Afrikaner Empowerment: Sanlam and the Mobilization of Afrikaner Savings, Entrepreneurship and Work Ethic, 1918-1950
    Work ethic, education and Afrikaner empowerment: Sanlam and the mobilization of Afrikaner savings, entrepreneurship and work ethic, 1918-1950. Grietjie Verhoef University of Johannesburg1 Abstract The Weberian thesis of a causal relationship between economic advancement and the Protestant work ethic, has been widely advocated ( ) Recently more critical studies have raised questions about the alleged relationship between the protestant work ethic and economic growth. A broader context of papers studied the association between religion and economic outcomes. Quite generally, religion is an important expression of culture (Guiso, Sapienza, and Zingales 2006), and as such is viewed as a possible fundamental cause of economic growth. Thus, Barro and McCleary (2003; 2005) study the association between different religions and economic growth. More recently Acemoglu, Johnson & Robinson (2001; 2005) have rejectedany direct link between economic growth and religion per se. More recently closer attention was paid to the link between literacy and economic growth, since it was argued what Luther had propagated was improved literacy in order to enable people the ability to read the Bible, which had the overall effect of improved literacy and that contributed to increased human capital formation, which brought higher growth. For an explanation to the rise of Afrikaner capital and entrepreneurial advancement since the first decade of the twentieth century, this paper will explore Weberian thought in the speeches, publications and public statements by leaders associated with the establishment of early Afrikaner business in South Africa. In this respect the insurance company SANLAM played a decisive role, but was not the exclusive promoter of Afrikaner entry into the mainstream of the economy.

  • Blowing the Lid Off the Stellenbosch 'Mafia'
    Legalbrief | your legal news hub Thursday 23 September 2021 Blowing the lid off the Stellenbosch 'Mafia' Like most South African urban hubs, Stellenbosch has desperate poverty and fabulous wealth. What makes the City of Oaks (Eikestad) different is that there is a common thread among its ultra elite – they are mostly male Afrikaners riding high in the heart of Afrikanerdom. Legalbrief reports that author Pieter du Toit has blown the lid off this secretive club with his book The Stellenbosch Mafia: Inside the Billionaire’s Club and, not surprisingly, the backlash has been formidable. The author says Stellenbosch became the spiritual home of the resistance against British domination after the Boer War and the current club includes Johann Rupert, Jannie Mouton, Markus Jooste and Christo Wiese. Julius Malema refers to them scathingly as 'The Stellenbosch Mafia', the very worst example of white monopoly capital, but his own party has close ties. In a 702 interview, Du Toit says Jooste 'desperately wanted to be part of that group (but) 'it didn’t turn out so well … it is a closed society'. Case-in-point: In 2006, the name of Steinhoff International started to appear on rugby jerseys in Stellenbosch. Business Insider reports that other companies found themselves pushed out, and Steinhoff was sponsoring rugby at the international level – even though that holding company had no direct exposure to consumers. For some, this seemed to be more about Jooste's ego than business, writes Du Toit. He said Remgro had earlier wanted to get involved with Stellenbosch Rugby Club, the largest of its kind in the world and a jewel in the university’s crown but they were elbowed out by Jooste and Steinhoff.
