Investec Group is an Anglo-South African specialist banking and asset management firm that provides a range of financial products and services to private clients, corporates and institutional investors. The company operates through two primary divisions—Private Banking & Wealth Management and Investment & Treasury—and is dual-listed on the London and Johannesburg stock exchanges.
Within Private Banking & Wealth Management, Investec offers bespoke solutions such as lending, deposit taking, foreign exchange, trust and fiduciary services, and tailored wealth planning. Its Investment & Treasury division covers asset management across equities, fixed income and multi-asset funds, as well as specialist services in property finance, leasing and structured finance. The group also provides capital markets expertise, including mergers and acquisitions advice, debt and equity underwriting, and risk management strategies.
Founded in Johannesburg in 1974 by a small team of entrepreneurial bankers, Investec expanded into the United Kingdom during the early 1990s and subsequently established a presence in Europe, Asia-Pacific and North America. Growth has been driven by a combination of organic expansion and targeted acquisitions, enabling the firm to serve clients on a global basis while retaining a focus on specialist, relationship-driven service.
Investec is led by Group Chief Executive Fani Titi, who heads an experienced senior management team drawn from its key markets. The company operates through a decentralized model, empowering local leadership in major financial centres and emphasizing long-term partnerships with its client base.
