Ashburton Investments

Ashburton Investments

FirstRand has a successful track record of building businesses from scratch. Think Discovery and OUTsurance – both household names – that emerged from the group, evolving from being start-ups to game changers.

The ambition is to challenge the status quo in a market where the incumbents are so big, they can’t respond quickly. This was the thinking when Ashburton Investments was created.

Designed as a new-generation asset manager, Ashburton has been particularly successful in fixed-income and institutional markets and is now embarking on scaling in retail.

As a place to build a career, Ashburton is a place of many opportunities as it is still very much in a growing phase. Its mandate is to innovate and disrupt. It is still small and agile. It has lots of runway to contribute to the group’s success over the medium to longer term.
