Yesterday, the Minister of Public Enterprises Pravin Gordhan announced that the deal to sell 51% of SAA to the Takatso consortium is off.
The deal, which was first agreed in June 2021, has faced numerous obstacles. Among them has been the need to revalue the assets of SAA due to the lengthy time between the original agreement and the final agreement on the sale of shares.
