21 October 2013, Monday

In this edition of Classic Business at 18h00, Anchor Glenn Lewington broadcast a half hour news bulletin featuring the top Business stories of the day followed by up-to-date financial indicators including shares of Kumba Iron Ore continuing to slide on missed production targets, and a top Government official bust for a massive porn binge (funded by taxpayers). Glenn also interviewed the newsmakers of the day: Dr Randall Carolissen, Group Executive for Revenue Analysis at the South African Revenue Service on the taxman's coffers swelling; Mpowele Swathe, Member of Parliament and Shadow Minster of Rural Development and Land Reform at the Democratic Alliance on the Special Investigating Unit annual report revealing R700 million in illegal land grants; Craig Gibson, CEO of Webhelp in South Africa on the Group announcing a thousand new jobs in South Africa; Gina Schoeman, Emerging Markets Economist at the Citigroup on the upcoming economic news released during the week; and Warwick Scott-Rodger, Gauteng Regional Manager of MUA Insurance Acceptances on insuring against lightning strikes. Market analyst for the evening Ian Cruickshanks, Independent Analyst provided commentary on Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan's upcoming mini budget, the taxman's coffers swelling, some analysts saying that more record highs on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange are unlikely, and the Eurozone's budget deficit falling. In the second part of the programme at 18h30, Glenn chaired a one-hour discussion on the weekly topic, namely the "Mini Budget" with guests Kyle Mandy, Head of Tax Technical at PwC; and Greg Vercellotti, Executive Director of Dariel Solutions; with commentary from Michelle Dickens, Founder and Managing Director at the Tenant Profile Network; and Frans Cronje, CEO of the South African Institute of Race Relations.
