Old Mutual On The Money: Recent Episodes
John Manyike
The On the Money Programme is a financial education initiative created to teach all South Africans how to best manage their finances. The programme is based on the behaviours of South Africa's Big Five animals. The unique characteristics of the Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Rhino, and Buffalo, as found in nature, have been distilled to teach us how to manage our personal and family finances. The purpose of our podcast is to educate & empower our listeners on money matters using real life situations and financial moments. It features celebrities, industry experts and ordinary people sharing relatable and practical tips through a conversational podcast on their stories & experience on financial matters.
When it comes to insurance claims, the small details can make all the difference.
In episode three of our four-part On The Money series in partnership with Old Mutual Insure, Mpumelelo Mashinini, Regional Development Manager for Commercial Insurance, joins Old Mutual’s Financial Education Programme Manager, Thabo Hollo, to unpack some of the hidden risks that many policyholders overlook.
From making sure your home, vehicles, personal or business assets are insured for the correct value to reviewing your cover as circumstances change, Mpumelelo explains why keeping your information up to date is essential if you want your claim to reflect the real value of what you’ve lost.
It’s a practical conversation about understanding your policy, staying aligned with current market values, and avoiding unpleasant surprises when it’s time to claim.
On the Money is Old Mutual’s financial education podcast, where public figures and everyday people share their real stories about money – the good, the bad, and the unexpected.
You’ve probably heard of the term “underinsurance”, but what does it actually mean – and why does it matter so much?
In the final episode of our four-part On The Money series with Old Mutual Insure, Regional Development Manager for Commercial Insurance Mpumelelo Mashinini joins Old Mutual’s Financial Education Programme Manager, Thabo Hollo, to unpack one of the most common and misunderstood risks in insurance.
Underinsurance happens when assets are insured for less than their true value. It can seem harmless at first – and in some cases it may even lower your premium – but it can create a serious shortfall when it’s time to claim.
Through practical examples and simple explanations, Mpumelelo and Thabo explore why keeping the value of your assets up to date is crucial, and how regularly reviewing your insurance can help you avoid unpleasant surprises when you need to claim.

In episode one of our four-part On the Money series in partnership with Old Mutual Insure, Sales Manager Luke Abrahams joins Old Mutual’s Financial Education Programme Manager, Thabo Hollo, to unpack a complex but very real scenario faced by many South Africans.
From theft by a family member living at home to losses caused by a sticky-fingered employee in your business, Luke explains how short-term insurance policies typically respond, where general exclusions apply, and why understanding the difference between the unforeseen and the foreseeable matters.
It’s a practical conversation about expectations, responsibility, and understanding what your policy really covers before you need to claim.
If your business was unexpectedly brought to a halt tomorrow, would it survive the financial impact?
In episode two of our four-part On the Money series in partnership with Old Mutual Insure, Schaun van den Berg, Executive: Alternative Channel Solutions for Old Mutual Insure, joins Old Mutual’s Financial Education Programme Manager, Thabo Hollo, to unpack what business interruption cover is and why it’s so important for South African businesses – especially SMMEs.
From fires and forced shutdowns to unexpected events that prevent you from operating, Schaun explains how interruption cover can help protect lost income, safeguard salaries, and support the long-term sustainability of your company while you get back on your feet.
It’s a practical conversation about continuity, consequences, and making sure your business can keep moving – even when the unexpected happens.

Even after getting his big break in show business, actor, entrepreneur, and philanthropist Cornet Mamabolo kept hustling – selling funeral policies at taxi ranks and malls.
