The Gauteng Growth and Development Agency (GGDA) was established by the Gauteng Provincial Government through its Department of Economic Development (GDED). Its objective is to spearhead and coordinate economic development efforts for the province, targeting local and international business stakeholders. The GGDA's purpose is to grow the economy by positioning Gauteng as a Global Competitive City Region (GCR). It aims to demonstrate thought leadership in implementing key programmes and provide support for the development of key sectors. The GGDA's decree is to serve as the implementation arm of the GDED and assist the department in leading, facilitating and managing sustainable job creation and inclusive economic growth and development in the GCR. The GGDA recognises the importance of investment as a driver of job creation, skills development and firm creation for economic growth and development both within the province and throughout South Africa. One of its key deliverables is ensuring that investors receive all the support and information that they require in order to maximise the gains from their investments.

The Foundation's main objectives are to: increase the number of South African films and Previously Disadvantaged Individuals (PDIs) producing them; increase audience access to South African films; increase the number of people trained in the industry, particularly in areas of scarce skills; promote the South African film industry locally and internationally; and promote social cohesion and the expression of the nation's stories through film.

The National Financial Ombud Scheme South Africa (NFO) is an umbrella financial services ombud scheme formed by the amalgamation of four separate previously existing South African ombud schemes: the offices of the Banking Ombud (OBS); the Credit Ombud (CO); the office of the Long-Term Insurance Ombud (OLTI); and the Short-Term Insurance Ombudsman (OSTI). In June 2021, the World Bank published a report on the role of the financial sector ombud system in South Africa. The report recommended that the overall ombud system and its components be reformed to make it fit for purpose and to adequately address the complexity of the South African financial system. The OBS; CO; OLTI; and OSTI entered into discussions early in 2020 to explore a voluntary amalgamation. The culmination of the work of the four ombud schemes resulted in the OBS, CO, OLTI and OSTI being replaced by the National Financial Ombud Scheme South Africa (NFO). The NFO commenced operations on 1 March 2024. The NFO's purpose is to resolve financial services complaints fairly, impartially and efficiently; provide a timely, informal and accessible alternative dispute resolution service to financial service providers and their customers; and promote financial education amongst consumers and financial institutions.
