Fin24's weekly SA Money Report provides bite-size takes on financial and business stories, along with a deep dive into the story of the week.

This week's episode of SA Report concerns SA’s new finance minister, "the known entity" that is Enoch Godongwana.

While his appointment by President Cyril Ramaphosa last week was largely welcomed, with analysts noting he has the skills, experience and sensibilities needed to be finance minister – there has still been a shadow lurking in the background of his rise to the head of National Treasury, called Canyon Springs Investment 12.

Helping us to understand and unpack what it Canyon Springs actually is, and whether it is an albatross around Godongwana's neck or just a blip in his career, is Fin24’s investigative reporter Jan Cronje. 

Fin24's aim with this series is to take complex issues and break them down in way that gives listeners an insight into a world that can often be impenetrable, either because of really dense figures, ratios and percentages - or because you need to navigate obscure financial terminology. 

New episodes of the show, hosted by Fin24 deputy editor Ahmed Areff, will be released every Friday.
