August is a month dedicated to honouring the contributions of women across all sectors, I am thrilled to present this special edition. Our cover, featuring the formidable team of women from Standard Bank Brokers, perfectly captures the essence of progress and innovation that women bring to the financial services industry. Our Women’s Month feature shines a spotlight on the incredible strides women are making within our industry and the narratives shared serve as a powerful reminder that women are not just participants,they are leaders, innovators, and changemakers driving the industry forward.
