Last year, the FSCA found that Steinhoff provided false, misleading or deceptive statements to the market and accordingly breached the provisions of the Financial Markets Act Jooste has been fined an administrative penalty of more than R161 million for breaching section 78 and section 78 of the Financial Markets Act.

The authority imposed a penalty of more than R3 million and a penalty of more than R18 000 on Marthinus Swiegelaar for a breach of the Financial Markets Act. Swiegelaar was Jooste’s chauffeur at the time of the contravention, and he also received the warning SMS on November 30 2017.
