South Africa's steel industry is in the crosshairs once again, and once again for all the wrong reasons. Itac, the department of trade, industry and competition's trade regulator, has been instructed by minister Parks Tau to conduct arguably the widest tariff review in its history, of imported steel. This as Arcelor Mittal SA (AMSA), the country's only integrated steelmaker, is being rescued by the State. The review threatens widespread price increases on imports — everything steel-related is included — from iron ore to wheelbarrows. The problem, as trade expert Donald MacKay tells Peter Bruce in this edition of Podcasts from the Edge, is that while literally hundreds of imported products will be reviewed, Itac normally takes 27 months to complete just one review. Parks Tau wants the review done by July! “The unintended consequences can be existential to some companies,” says MacKay, “You can't do all of this and expect some companies to not fail. So maybe its not Mittal but there's no way everyone comes through this… I think this review is too big. It should have been broken up.”

Private debt doesn't offer high enough returns to justify the growing risks, according to Pimco. “Fundamentals are deteriorating in more levered portions of the credit markets,” said Mohit Mittal, chief investment officer for core strategies at Pimco. “You're seeing more complacency, so you have to be very thoughtful, you have to be very careful.” Investment-grade direct lending pays only half the premium needed to compensate for worse liquidity than in public markets and rising fundamental concerns, Mittal tells Bloomberg News' James Crombie and Irene Garcia Perez and Bloomberg Intelligence's Stephen Flynn in the latest Credit Edge podcast. Mittal and Flynn also discuss the outlook for the telecoms and the cable media sector, including consolidation and deleveraging. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if conservation efforts meant to protect our planet were actually causing significant harm to the very people who have safeguarded these lands for generations? Join us on Breaking Green as we uncover the startling truth with Anuradha Mittal, founder and executive director of the Oakland Institute. Through the lens of their report, "From Abuse to Power," we expose the severe human rights abuses reportedly inflicted upon indigenous communities by "EcoGuards" — funded by prominent NGOs like the World Wildlife Fund. We'll explore the deeply rooted colonial and racist undertones of the conservation industry, particularly in Africa. Discover how powerful international institutions and donor countries perpetuate a model that expels indigenous people from their ancestral lands. The conversation contrasts Western views that see humanity as a threat to nature with indigenous perspectives that emphasize harmony with the environment. On this episode of Breaking Green, we will talk with founder and executive director of the Oakland Institute, Anyarada Mitall. Anyarada is an internationally renowned expert on issues of human rights, agriculture, development and conservation policies. Under Anyarada's leadership, the Oakland Institute has unveiled land investment deals in the developing world to expose a disturbing pattern of lack of transparency, fairness and accountability. Anyarada has authored and edited numerous books and reports. Her articles and opinion pieces have been published in widely circulated newspapers and she is frequently interviewed on CNN, BBC World, CBC, ABC, Al Jazeera and National Public Radio.Find Oakland Institute's report "From Abuse to Power" here.

Like the aspiration of every child born into a Sai family, Shalabh Mittal too wanted to become a student in Bhagawan's institution. When he tried to join for Class XI, it did not happen. But Swami did something else in that year which totally changed his perspective and attitude to everything he did in life as a teenager. Thanks to that precious moment that Bhagawan granted him, he not only became a student of His university two years later but was in the best frame of mind to absorb everything that Bhagawan's educational ecosystem instilled into him.

OMS' is an 'Oh My Sai' series wherein we plan to offer 100 such OMS videos as we march towards Bhagawan's 100th Birthday to be celebrated on Nov 23, 2025.

"This notion of a startup should be centered around the founder is a mindset. It makes for great stories. It makes for great heroes. And that's the reason why that sustains But, you know, there are great organizations that have been built where founders did not believe in that. And the organizations sustain even after the founder leaves."That's what Alok Mittal, founder and MD of Indifi, an online lending platform, had to say about startups getting caught up in the founder-worshipping trap.I hope you have heard my first episode with him. I often ask founders if they believe in the concept of a founder-led organization. Or how they're planning for a post-founder future for their organization. Because like Alok, I do believe that just like a parent's role is to eventually step back and let go of their child, so it is for founders.But that's not easy when we're living in the golden age of founders. Where co-founder tags are coveted much more than CEO titles. It's not easy for many founders to let go. But that was just one of the things that Alok and I discussed in our conversation. Alok, if you didn't know already, is involved in a lot of things. His day job might be MD of Indifi, but he is also the founding board member of Indian Angel Network and co-founder of Plaksha University.Plaksha is a project he has been working on for quite some time and the way it is structured was interesting and something a lot of centers of education should be aiming to build in India as Alok explained:"The notion of departments that exist in educational institutions is not the right architecture. Especially for a country like India, more and more of technology skills have to get expressed as entrepreneurship for it to be relevant to society. I don't think we have another answer for the jobs we need to create or the growth that we need to build.Now, you take all of that, and the question that we are asking is, what does that mean for the university system? And so, for example, at Plaksha, there are no departments. There are these integrated centers of research which are oriented towards a particular problem like climate. But there is no computer science department, there is no mechanical engineering department. There is no mechanical engineering major because we don't think that students will need to be experts at mechanical engineering in a silo to be able to build.So there is a major in autonomous systems, which means robotics, which means drones, which means all of that. But there's a major in biological systems, which means genetic engineering, which means personalized medicine, things of that nature. So that is the new architecture that we are putting in place for how technology education should be done."If you haven't already checked out the first part of my conversation with Alok Mittal, now would be the perfect time to give it a listen. You'll find in that conversation when and how Alok fell in love with the idea of being an entrepreneur.Welcome to First Principles—The weekly leadership podcast from The Ken.Let's get started.-----------Introducing Patron Subscriptions!If you wish to know more about Patron Subscriptions you can find the link for that here.

Alok Mittal has been on both ends of the startup ecosystem. He's been a founder and a VC. These days he's back in the founder's seat but still enabling businesses but through his lending platform Indifi which lends money to Small and Medium Enterprises or SMEs.He has very strong thoughts about org building even though he admits Indifi is only 9 years old. He speaks from his observations and his strong beliefs. In Alok's mind it's the mid-management which holds together the organization and not necessarily the leadership team.Alok also has the history of setting up three ventures, which includes the part he played in setting up Canaan Partners, a VC firm in India. Then of course there is JobsAhead which was his first startup and now he's busy lending to the sector which contributes to 30% of the country's GDP, and yet finds credit hard to come by.Alok hung up his VC shoes in 2015 to solve this problem and take on the problem of lending to SMEs, the ones who were being given a pass by traditional banks and NBFCs.
