Investec Bank is a specialist banking and wealth management group operating in select markets across Africa, the United Kingdom, Europe and Asia-Pacific. The bank is headquartered in Johannesburg, South Africa, and London, United Kingdom, with dual listings on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange. Investec provides a range of financial products and services to a niche client base in three principal markets: high-net-worth individuals, high-income professionals and specialist businesses. Core services include private banking, corporate and investment banking, wealth and investment management, and specialist lending. The group operates through two main entities: Investec Limited in South Africa and Investec plc in the UK. In South Africa, Investec Bank is active in project finance, particularly in the renewable energy sector, providing debt funding for independent power producers and infrastructure developments. The bank employs several thousand people globally and maintains a presence in major financial centres. Investec was founded in Johannesburg in 1974 by Larry Nestadt, Errol Grolman and Ian Kantor, initially as a small leasing and financing company, and has since grown into an international specialist bank and asset manager with operations spanning multiple continents.
