Nedbank Private has received two honours for its Private Wealth offerings at the prestigious Global Private Banking Awards 2026 in London:

• Best Chief Investment Office in Private Banking; and 
• Best Private Bank for Philanthropy Services.
   

Hosted by Professional Wealth Management, the awards recognise leading private banking groups worldwide through a rigorous assessment of qualitative submissions and key performance indicators. The two accolades affirm Private Wealth’s ability to combine disciplined investment management with advice that helps clients use their wealth with purpose.

Investment excellence built around clients

The Chief Investment Office recognition reflects the strength of Private Wealth’s investment philosophy, governance and portfolio construction. By combining local insight with global market perspectives, the team helps clients make informed decisions aligned to their objectives, risk appetite and long-term ambitions.

For clients, this means access to disciplined investment stewardship designed to protect and grow wealth over time, while remaining responsive to changing markets, life stages and intergenerational priorities.

Turning wealth into lasting impact

The philanthropy award recognises a dedicated capability that helps clients translate their values into structured, sustainable action. Whether supporting communities, advancing education, establishing a foundation or trust, or funding long-term social initiatives, clients can approach giving with the same discipline and strategic oversight applied to their investments.

By integrating philanthropy into a holistic wealth management approach, Private Wealth helps clients align their investment, financial and legacy planning to create meaningful impact, safeguard their financial security and transfer wealth across generations.

“Some see wealth as a numerical value. We see its potential to create a legacy you can leave behind,” says Jason Binneman, Investment Executive of Nedbank Private. “Our role is to help clients grow and protect their wealth, while creating opportunities for it to make a meaningful difference.”

One connected wealth proposition

Together, the awards demonstrate the value of an integrated, advice-led approach. Clients benefit from investment professionals, wealth advisers, specialist advisers and philanthropy specialists working together across their full wealth journey, from building and preserving wealth to wealth structuring, estate and succession planning, and creating a lasting legacy.

The recognition also reinforces Private Wealth’s responsibility to keep raising the standard of advice and evolving its investment, advisory and philanthropy capabilities. The focus remains clear: helping clients make informed decisions, realise the full potential of their wealth and create enduring value across generations.
