Governance: The Board Structure DIRECTORS BOARD OF REMUNERATION COMMITTEE HR ETHICS and CREDIT AND DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE AUDIT AND RISK MOI provides for a maximum of 8 directors (7 NEDs & 1 ED) Currently only four Non-Executive Directors Vacancies are not being filled because of pending merger
Governance: Audit Report Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Rural Housing Loan Fund SOC NPC as at 31 March 2016 and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with Generally Recognised Accounting Practices and the requirements of the Public Finance Management Act of South Africa and the Companies Act of South Africa. Emphasis of Matter Without modifying our opinion we draw your attention to note 3 of the annual financial statements. This note indicates the merger of the Rural Housing Loan Fund SOC NPC with two other Development Finance Institutions, note 3 also indicates that this condition indicates the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Challenges Challenges: Decrease in affordability by end users as shown by lower borrowing, though there seems to be a slight turnaround happening here Over 70% of loans issued by a single intermediary. Measures to address challenges: RHLF is assisting with affordability by helping intermediaries reduce interest charged to retail borrowers RHLF is developing 3 start-ups in: Maluti-a-Phofung Makhuduthamaga Mahikeng
Performance Q1 2016/17
Concluding Remarks RHLF achieves its mandate within the constraint of its funding resources as well as the challenges faced by the economy Target market is huge and more needs to be done to significantly increase market coverage Tough market conditions and high level of indebtedness pose a challenging outlook RHLF business model resonates with active citizenry advocated in the NDP—people drive their building process and improvement of their living conditions
