Mr Leslie Ndawana elected to serve on the Batseta Board of Directors

We wish to congratulate our Principal Executive Officer, Mr Leslie Ndawana, who was elected to serve on the Batseta Board of Directors. Batseta is a non-profit organisation that serves the interests of principal officers, trustees and fund fiduciaries within the retirement industry.

Leslie’s election to serve on the Board of Directors of Batseta provides the NFMW, through its Principal Executive Officer, with an opportunity not only to be part of important policy discussions, but also to shape the retirement funds landscape.

We are confident that Batseta and the retirement funds industry will benefit from Leslie's expertise and industry experience. The Board of Trustees affirms its support for Leslie’s involvement in the retirement funds industry initiatives and activities.
