What could South Africa’s local government election results tell us about the next national vote?

In this clip from our recent webinar, Foord portfolio manager Nancy Hossack and political economist, Frans Cronje discuss how the political picture after the local government elections could set a new tone ahead of 2029. They unpack the factors that could make a possible Patrice Motsepe leadership bid more than speculation.

How is the uMkhonto we Sizwe party (MK) positioning itself for the local government elections?

In our recent webinar, Foord portfolio manager, Nancy Hossack and political economist, Frans Cronje, discuss how MK’s campaign strategy speaks to voters who may still feel connected to the ANC’s past but increasingly disconnected from its present.

They look at how Jacob Zuma’s struggle credentials, political nostalgia and a message of abandonment could help MK draw interest from disillusioned ANC voters.

Happy World Savings Day!

Every big savings goal starts with a single step. The earlier we take that step, the further we can make every rand go.

At Foord, we believe children are never too young to learn the value of saving. That’s why we created Teach Your Child to Invest, an initiative that helps young learners, and their parents, understand that planning before spending, and putting a little aside, can make a big difference over time. More Than Enough, Little by Little and That’s Just Nuts, make these lessons fun, simple and easy to remember.

Small savings today, big possibilities tomorrow. Get access to the books here: https://bit.ly/3TP3ri9

A year ago, people still fitted the tyres by hand. Today, two robot arms do it.

On Foord’s Orient Express Tour, JC Xue and Brian Arcese visited SAIC Motor Corporation’s EV manufacturing plant in Shanghai. More than 80% of the car-making process there is now automated. SAIC is China's largest automotive manufacturer and is best known globally for the success of its MG brand in Europe and Southeast Asia.

They look at how fast automation is improving productivity in China's EV sector. They also explain why a remarkable factory doesn't always make a straightforward investment case in such a competitive market.

MK and the DA: Unexpected bedfellows?

Foord portfolio manager, Nancy Hossack and political economist, Frans Cronje explore why the strongest coalitions may come from parties with different voters but shared interests and why economic growth, could be what brings them together.

As coalitions become central to how South Africa is governed, these unlikely partnerships could shape the country’s path to reform.

Join the full webinar for their wider view on coalitions, reform, the road to 2029 and what it all means for investors.

In a market where consumers are under pressure, the businesses that stand out are often the ones that keep adapting.

Yum China offers a familiar entry point into a much deeper investment story. Many people know KFC and Pizza Hut, but fewer know the scale and complexity of the business that operates these brands in China.

In this Shanghai interview from Foord’s 2026 Orient Express tour, JC Xue and Nick Balkin, explore how pricing discipline, operational improvements and menu innovation have helped Yum China remain relevant in a challenging consumer environment — and why direct engagement is central to how Foord builds long-term investment insight.

If the DA falls short in Joburg, should it walk away?

Securing enough votes to govern is only the first hurdle. Foord’s Nancy Hossack and Frans Cronje of The Common Sense, weigh up the DA’s Plan B in Johannesburg, and whether playing the long game for 2029 could achieve more than an unstable coalition deal.

Join the full conversation as they unpack South Africa’s shifting political landscape and what it means for investors.

Can a portfolio hold 50 investments and still make the same bet 50 times?

Yes, if every investment ultimately depends on the same story.

AI could become one of history’s most important technologies. But that does not guarantee that every investment made during today’s spending boom will deliver a good return.

That is why genuine diversification goes beyond owning more shares. It means spreading risk across investments that respond differently when conditions change.

11 October is International Day of the Girl, a day that recognises the potential of every girl and the importance of giving her the tools to thrive.

Every year, Foord opens its doors to high school girls for a day of learning about financial literacy and the investment industry. Sometimes seeing a path is the first step to walking it.

Yesterday we hosted 10 girls from Alexander Sinton High School and the girls got to spend one on one time with Nkanyezi Sikakane, Christina Castle, Diane Behr, Farzana Bayat and Linda Eedes, all who had valuable insights to share.

We’re proud to champion this initiative with CFA Society South Africa and to help empower the next generation of young women in finance.
