FirstRand is trading 5.5% down at €4.82, with no clear company-specific catalyst identified for the September 29, 2026 move.

  • FirstRand announced Dr Solomon Assefa’s appointment as an independent non-executive director, effective October 1, and disclosed director dealings; neither was reported to explain the decline.
  • The JSE All Share fell 1.55% and Top 40 1.76% on Monday, September 28, amid rising global bond yields and weaker precious-metal prices; this may have weighed, but does not establish the cause.
