Veteran money manager Piet Viljoen has been on the warpath against Naspers management in the run-up to Tuesday’s release of the group’s financial results. He ripped into them in a social media post, which sparked an interview with Alec Hogg where the manager of the Merchant West Value Fund elaborated on his views. Viljoen is not alone. A couple years back, a group of South African money managers issued an unprecedented public statement attacking management’s approach. Given the impairments that will be disclosed with the results on Tuesday, those critical voices are likely to be heard again in the week ahead.

What's the issue with Equites?
Impossible to listen to!
True
Audio made it not possible to listen to
On your side no problem Alec. Piets sound not very clear.
Very bad sound
Sound is so bad you need to delete this and re-do the interview. Piet deserves better
How did you not hear during the interview that Piet is inaudible? I stopped watching after 5 minutes because I could hardly hear anything that he was saying. Better luck next time.
