The trustees of the fund
The trustees of the fund collectively have over 100 years of industry experience. They make sure that the fund meets all its financial and legal commitments. Each trustee has an area of expertise to add value to the management of the fund.
- The fund is managed by a board of six trustees made up of:
- three external trustees appointed by the board
- three internal trustees appointed by the sponsor – Alexander Forbes Financial Services (Pty) Ltd
The trustees formally meet four times a year to review the legal, benefit, financial and governance framework of the fund. An annual investment workshop is also held to review the investment framework and consider new developments in the investment industry applicable to retirement funds. Sub-committee meetings are in place to deal with the day-to-day running of the fund.
