Ninety One SA (Pty) Ltd has accumulated a 6.13% beneficial interest in Zeda Limited, triggering a mandatory disclosure under Section 122 of the Companies Act. This signals credible institutional support from a major asset manager, but remains a routine compliance event with no changes to operational guidance.
