Legal Matters: Trademark and logos –  what we need to know.

South Africans are paying significantly more on their bonds and to service their debts due to the South African Reserve Bank’s (SARB) interest rate hikes – which were never needed. An economist has warned South Africans that they are paying the cost of an unnecessarily harsh monetary policy, which is costing households at  least R4,000 a month. This is the view of Dr Roelof Botha, an economist, a part time economics lecturer at the Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) and is the Economic Advisor to the Optimum Financial Services Group, says that South Africa’s interest rates do not need to be as high as they are and he joins us to elaborate why he say that.

Transport minister Sindisiwe Chikunga says e-toll debt will not be written off. Gauteng motorists will continue to be liable to pay their historic e-tolldebts afterthe tolls are switched off in Gauteng. Minister Chikunga acknowledged that the resistance to e-tolls by motorists and other stakeholders suggested government could have consulted widely and done things differently, but said it was “water under the bridge”. She said the user-pay principle remains government policy and e-toll debt will not be written off. However, the question of recovering the debt is a sticky one that requires further discussion. Mr Daryl Swanepoel, Chief Executive Officer at Inclusive Society Institute, joins us for this discussion.
