Elements of our objective include:

Essential to our objective is the creation of a work environment in which our people treat one another with dignity, fairness and respect. We constantly encourage our employees to develop to their fullest potential, helping them understand that they will be held accountable for their work but can also expect recognition for the value they deliver.

We believe in financial empowerment for our clients, stakeholders and all those who wish to work with us. Therefore, our corporate responsibility objective is to build a high-performance corporate culture that delivers long-term value.

We do not discriminate on the basis of race or gender. Our Corporate Citizenship is integral to our Corporate Identity; thus the fair and respectful treatment of each of our employees is essential. Our employees’ empowerment is our success.

Consistent Corporate Governance is also a key component of our approach. Within our strategy we ensure that all of our stakeholders maintain high standards of excellence in Corporate Governance.

We understand that our responsibility does not just stop at our offices.  Therefore, we are keenly aware of our responsibility towards the environment and how we can reduce any possible negative impact our business might have. This includes our responsibility for the sustainable development of our society through upliftment initiatives. We value empowerment through education, enterprise development and sustainable job creation.
