analysisWith the broader implications of last week's cabinet reshuffle in South Africa still being digested, capital markets have been quick to react. Not to be lost in this chain of events is the significant role played by South Africa's state owned enterprises.

What's been lost in stating the case for South Africa is a tangible plan for strengthening governance and regulation of its state owned enterprises.
