Antony Louis Mostert

Since 1971 the senior partner of the firm Mr. Tony Mostert, has practised as an attorney without interruption. His practice has been varied and he has gained experience in most spheres of a commercial and corporate nature. For the past 30 years he has specialised in the recovery of large claims on behalf of various banks, financial institutions and individuals, both locally and abroad. These recoveries involved insolvency enquiries as well as the recovery and seizure of assets internationally. During the past 15 years he has gained experience in dealing with a wide range of matters involving pension funds and the administration thereof. He has also been involved in matters relating to large number of insolvencies as well as investigations relating to the commercial transactions of private and public companies, and the recovery of funds locally and abroad. Mr Mostert has also been involved in multi-million Rand foreign exchange investigations in close co-operation with the Reserve Bank of South Africa and the Commercial Branch of the South African Police Services. In 2005, he was appointed as the curator of Mitchell Cotts Pension Fund, pursuant to earlier investigations that he and the FSB Inspectorate had made which exposed what became known as the Ghavalas option. In his curatorship of Mitchell Cotts, a number of similar pension fund surplus stripping schemes were uncovered and due to Mr. Mostert’s in depth investigations, knowledge and understanding of surplus stripping, he was appointed in several pension funds such as the SACCAWU National Provident Fund.. Mr. Mostert’s involvement in that Fund is widely reported on in various reports to court and summarised in the judgement of Bertelsmann J (April 2011).
