CFO Casper Troskie extends his term at Old Mutual

From AI and coding to transformation and developing future finance leaders, CFOs shared their perspectives on how the accounting profession is evolving and what employers need to do to keep pace.

Simbarashe Mudzengi joins Webber Wentzel as CFO, bringing extensive financial leadership experience from Adcorp Holdings, Deloitte South Africa and EY.

iOCO CFO Ashona Kooblall and CEO Rhys Summerton have lifted profit after tax by 39%, expanded return on equity to 35% and strengthened cash generation. With recurring revenue above 60% and a disciplined approach to acquisitions, debt reduction and share buybacks, Kooblall is focused on sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value.

Retirement outcomes are built over decades, but the choices that shape them are often made by different people, in different institutions and at different points in an employee’s working life. New Old Mutual Corporate research gives CFOs a way to test whether the choices their organisations influence are turning employee-benefit spend into better retirement outcomes.

Following a significant turnaround, iOCO Technology Group’s finance leadership revealed the company’s new focus on deploying capital with discipline, accelerating growth through technology and strategic acquisitions while maintaining a high-performance culture at the 2026 Finance Indaba.

At the 2026 Finance Indaba, Mduduzi Dladla, CFO of Mbali Industrial Solutions EPC, challenged finance leaders to move beyond reporting historical performance and become strategic partners who shape decisions, protect liquidity and influence business outcomes.
