GUEST - Vuyo Lee, Director of Marketing and Corporate Affairs at the JSE



The Johannesburg Stock Exchange has launched a tool for South Africans to check if they are owed any money for unclaimed dividends.

The campaign is a collaboration between the bourse and some of the largest companies listed on the JSE.



Through the collaboration, the JSE has access to nineteen issuer share registries and will endeavour to reunite nearly 375,000 former employees, shareholders or beneficiaries of deceased estates with their unclaimed funds.
