Through financial education, entrepreneurship support, and sustainability initiatives, the bank is making a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals previously excluded from the financial system.

This initiative helps create jobs and foster economic growth within local communities.
Nedbank’s focus on sustainability extends to partnerships with innovative businesses like Kusini Water, which provides clean water and generates employment in rural areas.
