SOUTH AFRICA
- President Cyril Ramaphosa called for a reform of the United Nations Security Council, which remained "largely unchanged" since its creation after World War II. The leader said that the UNSC "must become more inclusive" as "Africa and its 1.4bn people remain excluded from its key decision-making structures."
- EWN reported that Justice Minister Thembi Simelane may appear before the African National Congress's (ANC's) ethics committee later today over her alleged involvement in a corruption scandal.
- The National Treasury holds a regular bond auction today. On offer will be ZAR1.25bn of 10% 2033 bonds, ZAR1.25bn of 10.875% 2038 bonds and ZAR1.25bn of 9% 2040 bonds.
