On 20 October 2021, the Supreme Court of Appeal (“the SCA”) handed down a judgement in the matter of JP Markets v FSCA (Case no 460/2021) [2021] ZASCA 148 (20 October 2021) in terms of which the SCA set aside the decision of the High Court to place JP Markets (Pty) Ltd (“JP Markets”) into liquidation, finding that it was not just and equitable.

The U.A.E and Republic of South Korea have not entered into a bi-lateral treaty under which they are obliged to recognise each other's court orders or judgments. The U.A.E rarely recognises/enforces the judgment of foreign courts where there is no such treaty in place
