May
18th, 2009
The outgoing Chief Executive of the Nedbank Group
Tom Boardman visited Nedbank Lesotho on May 7th, for
a round of annual staff Roadshows. The roadshows are
critical in updating local staff of the current
developments and outlook in the banking industry,
key growth strategies for the bank in its key
markets, and overall business performance.
In his address to the Board and staff, Mr. Boardman
emphasized that in the current economic crisis, the
Group has shown consistent growth, demonstrating
that Nedbank remains world-class at managing risk
and continues to stride purposefully towards its
vision of being the most highly rated and respected
bank among all its stakeholders.
He also highlighted some of the deep green
aspirations from The Nedbank Dagwood, which
encapsulates the strategic goals of the Group and
its African operations, namely:
- Great Place to Work
- Great Place to Bank
- Great Place to invest
- Highly involved in the community and environment
Nedbank Lesotho was also graced with the presence of
Mike Brown who is the current CFO of the Group.
Brown will be taking over from Boardman as Chief
Executive of the Group in February 2010. He assured
the Nedbankers and the market that the appointment
of Brown to Chief Executive has been carefully
thought-out by the Board, having searched throughout
South Africa and internationally for the right
candidate; making for effective succession and
continuity for the business and its shareholders. |
