About Investec Trust

Our origins

Investec Trust has grown through:

>  organic growth – 25 years’ worth since the original establishment of Investec Trust in South Africa
>  the acquisition over the last 10 years of specialist firms in the Channel Islands and Geneva

This deliberate strategy to build a premium private client-focused trust business, means Investec Trust is uniquely positioned to help clients embrace the increasing challenges of the future.

Our people

Investec Trust employs over 233 people (as at 1 January 2009), half of whom hold professional qualifications including trust practitioners, lawyers and accountants. Just as our client relationships are at the heart of what we do, our people are the lifeblood. We perpetuate our distinct culture and approach by a clear emphasis on training and recruitment, ensuring a fit for both individual staff and the Investec culture. We understand and speak the language of both advisers and clients.

We believe it is this focused commitment to client relationships that distinguishes Investec Trust as out of the ordinary.
