Veteran money manager Piet Viljoen is shedding no tears for how Naspers/Prosus dispatched Bob van Dijk, its CEO of the past decade, who left immediately on Monday morning. Viljoen says he and Van Dijk see the world very differently - and by his calculation, under Van Dijk's direction, management actions destroyed 40% of the value that would have accrued had they done nothing. In this typically hard-hitting interview, Viljoen discloses that he recently invested in Naspers/Prosus for the first time but won't buy any more until he is shown interim CEO Ervin Tu is not 'simply more of the same'. He spoke to Alec Hogg of BizNews.
