Investment Summit 2025

4 September 2025 | 08:00 - 13:00
Summer Place, Illovo

In September, we will be hosting our annual GIB Investment Summit. Once again, Bruce Whitfield will be our MC, who has become synonymous with the event. This year’s date is Thursday the 4th of September 2025, at Summer Place, Illovo.
 
Our theme is “Investing Through the Noise: What Matters Most.” In an era overwhelmed by information, market volatility, and global uncertainty, discerning what truly matters has never been more critical.

Our keynote speaker will explore how our personal health is a financial asset, and how this influences confidence and stability.

Additionally, we are excited to announce that we will be launching our Fiduciary Division at the Summit. We look forward to unveiling more details and discussing the new opportunities this launch will bring on the day.
