Who we are

Our vision is to be a premier international savings and wealth management business

What we do

Asset management

The heart of our business is growing our clients' savings and wealth, whether through active and direct asset management, or the selection of funds and managers for our clients to invest in. Our South African and US asset management business model, together with our market-leading Skandia open-architecture model, position us to respond to the growing demand for choice, transparency and flexibility.

Life assurance

Our innovative life assurance product solutions, addressing both protection and retirement savings needs, are developed in our South African business, as well as in our US Life operations.

Banking

Nedbank is one of South Africa's leading bank franchises and serves all levels of the local market. The Group also has banking operations in other countries in Southern Africa and in Sweden. Bancassurance is a key part of our asset gathering strategy.

General insurance

Old Mutual's interest in the general insurance sector is through its majority shareholding in Mutual & Federal, which provides general insurance services to the personal and corporate markets in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe.
