    SARS appoints new Commissioner and Chery investment in local manufacturing signals confidence in SA

    Stephen Grootes talks to Charles de Wet, Tax Executive at ENSafrica about the appointment of Dr Ngobani Johnstone Makhubu as the new SARS Commissioner, set to take over from Edward Kieswetter on 1 May 2026. The leadership change comes at a critical time for the revenue service, following a period of improved collections, stronger compliance and institutional rebuilding under Kieswetter. Makhubu’s elevation from Deputy Commissioner signals continuity in strategy, particularly around modernisation and taxpayer engagement, while also raising questions about how SARS will sustain momentum, deepen compliance and navigate evolving fiscal pressures in the years ahead.  In other interviews, Renai Moothilal, CEO of the National Association of Automotive Component and Allied Manufacturers (NAACAM) talks about Chery’s decision to invest in local manufacturing with the recommissioning of its Rosslyn plant, marking a shift from importer to producer in South Africa. The move is seen as a strong vote of confidence in the country’s automotive sector, particularly given Chery’s rapid rise as a top-ten player with significant sales volumes and an expanding dealer network. The investment is expected to boost local production capacity, deepen the supplier ecosystem and support job creation.

    SARS breaks the R2 Trillion revenue barrier & electricity prices jumped 85% since 2020

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Edward Kieswetter,  Commissioner of the South African Revenue Service about the revenue service surpassing the R2 trillion mark in net tax collections for the first time, reaching R2.01 trillion in the 2025/26 financial year. The milestone comes despite a challenging economic backdrop, including sluggish growth, load shedding and global uncertainty, and reflects stronger compliance efforts, improved administrative efficiency and support from key tax categories such as VAT and PAYE.  In other interviews, Raksha Darji, Principal economist at the Competition Commission talks about the latest Cost of Living Report, which shows that despite inflation easing, South African households remain under sustained pressure from persistently high prices for essential goods and services. The findings highlight how costs for electricity, water, food and education have risen far faster than headline inflation in recent years, with utilities alone increasing sharply and continuing to drive household expenses.  The Money Show is a podcast hosted by well-known journalist and radio presenter, Stephen Grootes.

    Inflation risks rise as fuel costs climb & SA rethinks what generational wealth really means

    Stephen Grootes speaks to Johann Els, Chief Economist at PSG Group about the latest potential fuel price shock will mean for inflation, interest rates and potential government intervention on the fuel levy.With petrol and diesel prices set for sharp increases driven by surging global oil prices and a weaker rand, the knock-on effects are expected to filter quickly through the economy raising transport costs, pushing up food prices and adding renewed pressure on inflation. In other interviews, Hayley Parry, Money Coach and Facilitator at 1Life’s Truth About Money talks about new survey findings showing how South Africans are redefining generational wealth in a tougher economic climate. The data points to a clear shift away from material markers like cars and even property, toward more sustainable, long-term wealth strategies. While asset ownership remains key, fewer people now associate wealth with property or cash savings, with growing recognition of tools like life insurance and financial planning as pathways to building and transferring wealth across generations.
