National Credit Regulator v Kagiso Finansiele Dienste CC (NCT/38604/2016/140(1)) [2016] ZANCT 25 (21 July 2016)

The Tribunal did not make findings on the merits of the alleged contraventions, as the parties presented a settlement agreement at the hearing. The Tribunal examined the agreement and determined that it met the requirements for jurisdiction and was appropriate to be made an order of the Tribunal. The matter was resolved by making the settlement agreement an order, thereby curtailing the need for further evidence or judgment on the substantive issues.
