Chinese president Xi Jinping’s six year anti-corruption campaign claimed one of its biggest scalps yesterday in former head of Interpol, Meng Hongwei.
Bloodletting at the UK’s Barclays Bank continued yesterday with the sudden departure of corporate and investment banking head Tim Throsby, in the position for barely two years.
In South African news, Edward Kieswetter has been appointed the new head of the SA Revenue Services.
South African stocks yesterday enjoyed a second winning session with the JSE All Share index rising just under one percent, pulled higher by its leading stock Naspers which gained 2.5% in a delayed reaction to Monday’s offshore listing announcement.
