S.African watchdog demands Steinhoff produce report about fraud - CEO

South African capital markets watchdog has demanded that Steinhoff share a copy of an investigation report into the retailer's accounting fraud, the company's chief executive said on Tuesday.

"The (Financial Sector Conduct Authority) has issued a summons for the production of the report. I will take legal advice and we will do what we obliged to do," CEO Louis du Preez told journalists after briefing to lawmakers in Cape Town.
