Stephen Grootes speaks to Simon Baloyi, CEO of Sasol about the group’s half-year results as it navigates weaker oil and chemicals prices. While earnings declined and impairments weighed on profit, production at Secunda rose 10% and cost discipline supported positive free cash flow for the first time in four years. In other interviews, Gerhard van der Merwe, consumer law attorney at Trudie Broekmann Attorneys talks about a landmark High Court case challenging banks’ long-standing use of sales in execution. Lawyer Douglas Shaw is seeking to certify a class action, alleging that homes in arrears were sold for amounts just sufficient to settle outstanding debt, potentially below market value. Major banks deny wrongdoing, saying repossessions are a legal last resort, and are opposing both the certification and Shaw’s conduct. The case could have significant implications for foreclosure law and consumer rights in South Africa. The Money Show is a podcast hosted by well-known journalist and radio presenter, Stephen Grootes.

More people are reporting trouble getting insurance in some parts of the South Island. Major insurer AA Insurance has paused new home insurance policies in Westport and Canterbury's Woodend. Insurance Council chief executive Kris Faafoi spoke to Corin Dann.

Many Kiwis re-fixed their mortgage last year and will be re-fixing their mortgage again this year too. Four in five borrowers have re-fixed in the past year – a 13-year high. And more than two-thirds of fixed rate loans are due to come up for renewal this year. Westpac Chief Economist Kelly Eckhold told Mike Hosking most people have been opting for one-year or 18-month terms, instead of longer periods. He says those terms have the best interest rates and would have allowed people to benefit from any further OCR cuts. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Questions over why our largest bank has hiked its floating home loan rate. ANZ's lifted its rate 10 basis points to 5.79%. It says the move, which brings ANZ in line with most other banks, reflects changing global and local conditions.
