Clicks posts R50.4bn turnover & SARB targets offshore business through a Synthetic Financial Centre.
Stephen Grootes speaks to Bertina Engelbrecht, Clicks Group Chief Executive Officer about the retailer's annual results, which saw turnover increase 5.4% to R50.4 billion, while headline earnings per share rose 4.4%. Despite pressure on consumer spending, Clicks continued expanding its pharmacy and store network, growing its ClubCard membership to 13.1 million and paying out nearly R1 billion in cashback rewards. With plans to open more stores, expand into townships and strengthen its online delivery offering, the results highlight how Clicks is positioning itself for growth in an increasingly competitive retail market.
In other interviews, Stuart Theobald, Executive Chairman of Krutham talks about plans by National Treasury and the South African Reserve Bank to turn South Africa into a hub for international investment management. The proposed Synthetic Financial Centre would allow qualifying financial institutions to manage foreign investments from South Africa, potentially attracting global business, creating skilled jobs and keeping more financial services revenue in the country.
