Natural gas, fertilisers, chemicals, shipping routes, aluminium, aviation fuel and global supply chains are all now being affected by the fallout from the Iran war.

The Enlightened Family Business Podcast Ep. 159: The Story Only Your Family Can Tell with Roy Moëd & Yvette Conn   In this episode of the Enlightened Family Business Podcast, host Chris Yonker sits down with Roy Moëd and Yvette Conn, co-founders of Lifebook Memoirs, for a rich conversation about why documenting the stories of family business founders may be one of the most underutilized tools in the entire legacy planning space. Roy's journey into this work began with a deeply personal moment — repeatedly shutting down his blind father's stories until it was almost too late — and evolved into a global enterprise that has now chronicled over 20,000 lives across the world. Yvette, with her background in financial markets and business commentary, brings the lens of the family enterprise: how the unrecorded stories of founders get distorted over generations, how family myths quietly become sources of division, and how a book chronicling the origin of a family business can give an entire management team a living framework of values to build on. Together, they explore why so many people believe their story isn't worth telling, what it actually looks like to capture a 100-year-old family business history, the surprising emotional and relational benefits that emerge when stories are finally put to paper, and why a book — not a video — remains the most powerful medium for preserving a family's truth. This is a quietly profound episode for any family business leader who has ever wondered whether the story of how it all began still matters.

The company officially launched in October 2011 and secured venture capital funding in 2012. Today, over 20,000 people worldwide own a LifeBook. Roy's entrepreneurial journey began in 1978 with the founding of Pourshins Limited, which he built — starting with just £4,800 — into an international enterprise employing over 600 staff across four factories in four countries. He later re-engineered the company into a global virtual logistics and BPO provider before selling it to gategroup in 2007. Beyond business, Roy is a passionate philanthropist and advocate: he founded a polo club in Windsor, participated in the London to Sydney air race to raise money for charity, volunteered with Crisis at Christmas, and assisted with refugee relocation efforts at the Polish-Ukrainian border. He has been an active YPO member since 1991 and is deeply involved in the Parenting Community, creating forums and events focused on ageing parents. About Yvette Conn Yvette Conn co-founded LifeBook Memoirs in 2011 after a distinguished career in financial markets. After earning her Economics degree from the University of Bath, she entered the City of London — then still heavily male-dominated — and rose through the ranks at Laurie Milbank and later Investec, becoming one of the first female partners in the City and a member of the London Stock Exchange. Today, alongside her role at LifeBook, she leads the company's prestigious OPUS Division, which works with individuals, families, and founders to capture their life journeys and preserve their legacies for future generations. Yvette's rare combination of financial rigour and emotional intelligence allows her to guide clients through the storytelling process with warmth, discretion, and authenticity. As she puts it: "While a balance sheet tells you what a family owns, a story tells you who they are."

On today's episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, I'm joined by Ariane de Bonvoisin (@arianedebonvoisin), author of Spirit Mama, to explore the deeper connection between the mind, body, and spirit in the fertility journey. Ariane shares her personal story from corporate success to navigating fertility challenges including miscarriage and IVF, and how it led her to redefine what it means to become a mother. We discuss the hidden emotional patterns like control, perfection, and self-judgment, and how awareness of these can create powerful shifts. We also dive into reconnecting with the body, trusting your inner voice, and cultivating a relationship with something greater than yourself. This conversation offers a more compassionate, holistic perspective for anyone feeling like something is missing from the conventional fertility approach.

President Donald Trump initially gave Iran a 48-hour ultimatum to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, warning that failure to comply could trigger strikes on Iranian power infrastructure. This raised concerns about a broader escalation, particularly the risk of retaliatory attacks on energy assets across the region. Markets found some short-term relief as the deadline was extended, first by five days and then by a further ten, with the current deadline now set for the 6th of April. While this suggests some room for diplomacy, the situation remains highly fragile. The continued disruption in the Strait of Hormuz is still a major concern. It is a critical artery for global oil supply, moving around 16 million barrels per day, which is close to 20% of global demand. Any prolonged closure has significant implications for energy markets. Looking ahead, uncertainty remains elevated. There is still a risk of further military escalation, including the possible deployment of US ground forces and potential strikes on key Iranian export infrastructure. For now, oil and gas prices are expected to remain under upward pressure.

Global energy markets have entered a critical phase, as geopolitical tensions in the Middle East threaten to spiral into a full-scale supply crisis. In this episode, we unpack the latest developments following Iran's retaliatory strike on Qatar's liquified natural gas facility, an attack that wiped out roughly 17% of its capacity and sent shockwaves through global markets. With vital energy infrastructure now directly in the firing line, the risk of prolonged disruption has surged to levels far beyond even a potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

Oil markets experienced extreme volatility last week as escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East created significant uncertainty around global supply. Brent crude briefly surged toward $120/b, its highest level since 2022, as it became clear the conflict in the region could be prolonged. Prices later fell sharply, briefly nearing $81/b, after comments from president Donald Trump suggested the war was “pretty much” over, and a report circulated that the US had escorted a tanker through the Strait of Hormuz. Markets were further calmed by an International Energy Agency agreement to release 400 million barrels from strategic reserves. Over the weekend, attention shifted to Iran's Kharg Island export terminal, after Trump claimed nearby military facilities had been destroyed and suggested the oil terminal could also be targeted. Such an escalation could severely curtail Iranian exports and trigger retaliatory attacks on Gulf energy infrastructure. With continued strikes and limited reserve buffers, Brent has rebounded above $100/b, and further upward pressure remains likely.

With no sign of the Strait of Hormuz reopening, energy markets are facing an extraordinary supply shock. Around 20% of global oil supply has effectively become unavailable, pushing Brent crude above $100 per barrel for the first time since 2022. While an emergency G7 meeting to discuss a coordinated reserves release, along with the drawdown of commercial inventories, may buy some time, these measures are temporary. If the conflict and the closure of the strait persist, demand will ultimately need to fall to match reduced supply.

Implats delivered a strong set of numbers – so why did the market still look unimpressed? Matete Thulare from Investec unpacks the results and explains why the bank expects all PGMs to move into supply deficits in 2026. Then Alex Tsepaev from B2PRIME Group joins us on gold: the “safe haven” label, what's driving the trade right now, and the moments when gold can actually add risk to a portfolio. Plus Simon's take on what a protracted Iranian war could mean for South Africa's economy – from oil and inflation to the rand and growth.

Brent crude surged above $80 per barrel, after escalating conflict in the Middle East sharply increased fears of disruption through the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most critical oil shipping routes. Just days earlier, Brent had been trading near $73, with markets broadly assuming that US-Iran negotiations would continue. Escalation was recognised as a risk, but a large-scale disruption to Gulf shipping was not the base case. Over the weekend, that calculus changed. Insurance premiums on vessels transiting the Strait reportedly rose sharply or were withdrawn, naval assets were targeted, and conflicting statements around whether the Strait remains fully open have left markets navigating extreme uncertainty.

Oil reached a fresh yearly high as US-Iran tensions intensified, with Washington boosting military presence while leaving room for negotiations. Markets rallied after Trump suggested a 10–15 day window for a deal, though speculative positioning remains measured, with strong demand for high-strike call options signaling limited expectations of a major price surge. Meanwhile, European energy markets have also strengthened, with Summer 2026 gas and baseload power prices rising, partly driven by movements in emissions allowances.

What Next? Leadership Conversations for a Better Future examines how leaders can build future-fit economies in a time of accelerating technological and societal change. This episode looks at the power shifts created by AI and digital systems - asks where real agency still lies. Hosts Lindsay Hooper and Marc Kahn sit down with Thomas Lingard, who previously founded Unilever's Global Advocacy team to influence international public policy on sustainable development and who now heads the Centre for Future Generations, to explore where the real opportunity and agency exist to ensure that emerging technologies are used in the best interest of humanity. The discussion probes how digital power is concentrating, why regulatory systems are struggling to keep pace, and what it would take to steer emerging technologies toward societal benefit rather than narrow commercial gain. Thomas highlights the leadership capacities that now matter most: ethical judgement, systems intelligence, and the confidence to question deterministic narratives about technology. The episode asks a central question: how do we build an economy where technology strengthens society - and who has the responsibility and agency to shape that path? In partnership with the University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL) and Investec. Investec Focus Radio SA

South Africa's 2026 Budget arrives at a pivotal moment. Debt is hovering near 78% of GDP. Growth is forecast at just 1.5%. Debt-servicing costs absorb around 5% of GDP. And yet, bond yields have fallen, sentiment has improved and S&P maintains a positive outlook. Is this genuine fiscal stabilisation or simply a window of opportunity? In the latest episode of No Ordinary Wednesday, Jeremy Maggs sits down with Investec's Chief Economist Annabel Bishop and Treasury Economist Tertia Jacobs to unpack: • Whether debt has truly peaked • How meaningful the commodity revenue windfall is • The risk of further “stealth” tax pressure on households • Municipal reform and infrastructure momentum • What it would take to secure a credit-rating upgrade Read more on www.investec.com/now Investec Focus Radio SA
