Protecting your business through insurance is quite simple. Business owners will insure everything from equipment and physical stores, and in some cases, external elements like fires, natural disasters or social disturbances. One type of insurance most small and larger businesses ignore is key person insurance.
Only one in five South African small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have adequate key person insurance to protect against the sudden loss of a vital employee, founder, or specialist. This coverage remains critically underutilised despite growing awareness of business vulnerability tied to specialised talent and intangible assets.

New technology coupled with South African motorists keeping their cars longer has reshaped vehicle affordability, as the question has shifted from “Can I afford to buy this vehicle?” to “Can I afford to repair it?”…. Today’s vehicles incorporate advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), cameras, radar sensors, LED lighting, lightweight materials and highly integrated components, improving safety, but also increasing repair costs.

The South African employee benefits landscape is at an inflection point, shaped by financial pressure, shifting member expectations, and the growing realisation that traditional models are no longer fit for purpose.
The employee benefits industry in South Africa: R800 billion a year in contributions, split approximately R500 billion to group and retail retirement funds, R240 billion to medical schemes and R60 billion in premiums to group risk benefits, like death, disability and critical illness cover. Of South Africa’s 17 million employed individuals, around 11 million work in the formal sector, with 9 million participating in retirement funds. Yet despite this apparent reach, outcomes remain deeply concerning.

JEREMY MAGGS: The Aarto (Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences) rollout, as you well know, is continuing, but questions around readiness, fairness and enforcement are not going away. Now, as I understand it, the demerit system is meant to change driver behaviour and make roads safer. We should welcome that. But motorists are also asking a very practical question: Could someone else’s offence end up costing me my licence?

Watch the ads for life insurance and it is easy to believe that underwriting is a thing of the past. Policies promise no medical exams and rapid acceptance, creating the impression that assessing risk no longer plays a significant role in life insurance. The truth is it does. Underwriting remains at the heart of life insurance, but it has evolved and still is evolving dramatically. Today, technology, automation and AI are helping insurers assess risk faster and more accurately than ever before, making the process quicker and easier for advisers and their clients.
