Investec and England Rugby go back a long way

Our relationship kicked off with our sponsorship of the England v South Africa test match in December 1998. Following that success, the Investec Challenge Series has been a permanent annual fixture since 2000. Our sponsorship of this dynamic series, played at Twickenham Stadium, is set to continue right through to the end of 2011.

As Raymond van Niekerk, Group Marketing, has said “The quality of rugby and the intensity of competition between England and the visiting Southern
Hemisphere teams is spectacular. Rugby is all about passion, agility, tenacity and talent and these are characteristics that Investec has made its own as a leading international specialist entire banking group. True grit, strategic thinking and performance are driving forces that we are more than familiar with.”

Investec is an international, specialist banking and asset manager group providing a diverse range of financial products and services to a niche client base in three principal markets, the United Kingdom, South Africa and Australia, as well as certain other geographies.
