Excellence in diversity

 

It would be hard for us to talk about ourselves without mentioning money. So here we go. Money may be our backbone, but excellence is our culture and diversity our true driving force. We believe in creating a working environment that enables our people to help us bring our values to life. And to do so, we don’t just aim to acknowledge our differences but to celebrate them as the very mix we need to continue being the difference that enhances lives beyond banking.

In service of others

Our people are very important to us – every single one of them in the financial, technological, legal, administrative, creative, hospitality or operational space. Each one of them is our mirror. They are our reason to want to do better, and our reminder that we are in the service of others. Our culture is embedded in values that promote accountability, a strong focus on meeting client needs, and on building a positive brand image.

Purpose-driven

Purpose-driven

Our everyday mantra is ‘money experts who do good’. In every service offering or innovation we ask ourselves how we can help change lives for the better.

“As a bank that’s passionate about doing good through its purposes-driven approach and values-led vision, I couldn’t have asked for a better place to pursue my career while still being able to do the things that I am passionate about, such as social activism. Not only do I get an opportunity to attend to matters of nation-building and social cohesion for the bank, but I also get the chance to provide a business impact lens on regulatory and other matters that impact South Africans.”

– Bongane Sibanyoni, Executive Head: Regulatory Advocacy and Policy

Corporate social responsibility

Through our support, we continuously strive to demonstrate our commitment to and effectiveness in responding appropriately to the challenges of our communities. These challenges and the growth we nurture are the keys to our sustainable success, both as a business and as a green and caring bank. Our key areas of focus include environmental initiatives, the arts, youth and sports. The core of our commitment lies within the Nedbank Foundation. We align ourselves with supporting the implementation of the National Development Plan and to play our part in supporting government, non-governmental organisations, communities and other stakeholders that are dedicated to building our society through sustainable solutions.

Job creation

Nedbank prides itself in not only creating working experiences for our youth, but creating job opportunities to empower their future careers. We support the need to educate and set young people up for success by engaging in the Youth Employment Services (YES) programme, which aims to create 1 million employment opportunities for unemployed black youth to transform their lives while helping to grow the businesses in which they are placed. We successfully implemented YES 2019 along with our sponsored implementation partners and onboarded our 1st group of candidates. Despite a difficult year and global economic climate, we are still fully invested in our YES youth and continue to encourage them as they’ve made a significant impact in the roles they fulfilled. We look forward to welcoming more candidates to the programme soon.

Sustainability

At Nedbank, we understand that we operate in a world that’s volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous. Each and every day our situation changes. Bold and courageous leadership that embraces new ways of thinking and doing – and unites rather than polarises – is what’s needed to create a truly sustainable business. Nedbank is and continues to be up to this challenge.

To prove our dedication to sustainability, we have received numerous awards that recognise our efforts in managing our business sustainably, and while we do not work to win awards, we appreciate receiving them as confirmation that we are moving in the right direction.
