On #TheBusinessBrief today, we looked at the growing concern over so-called “money for murder” cases in South Africa’s life insurance industry. Life insurers detected 38 suspected cases in 2024, up from 14 in 2023, where beneficiaries were allegedly involved in the deaths of policyholders to access insurance payouts. We unpacked calls for stronger safeguards, including mandatory informed consent before life insurance policies are issued, and what this means for consumer protection and the integrity of the insurance industry.
