Yesterday, Old Mutual Namibia celebrated its 100-year anniversary while continuing to strive for excellence and quality services.
“It has not always been smooth sailing on our journey, but we continue to remain focused on what is important for our customers,” said Kosmas Egumbo, the group CEO of Old Mutual.
“A hundred years ago the doors to the first Old Mutual offices in Windhoek were officially opened. Today I can see Old Mutual has become an integral part of the Namibian family. People from all walks of life have put their trust in us to provide them with tailormade solutions for their unique needs in terms of insurance, protection, investment, savings and many other aspects,” Egumbo added.
Egumbo said that today, Old Mutual has a combined workforce of more than 900 employees, of whom more than 58% are female.
“The needs and aspirations of Namibians inspire us to continuously look for new growth opportunities for savings and investments, both within and outside Namibia. We will continue on this path of providing leading solutions; we want to remain our partners’ most trusted financial partners. The needs of our customers are constantly changing, and we make it our business to make sure we stay relevant and updated on what our customers need,” he added.
Ian Williamson, the Group CEO of Old Mutual Limited, mentioned the commitment of Old Mutual to its customers, especially during 2020.
“This past year has been extremely difficult, but the team of Old Mutual has yet again proven their resilience. During an interesting discussion I recently had, we spoke about how brands that are able to reach 100 years are able to adapt, survive and thrive, and this has been evident in the success of Old Mutual Namibia,” said Williamson.
“I wish to congratulate Old Mutual on this milestone. A hundred years of successful business is a commendable achievement that speaks to a well-thought-out business vision, skilful business management and perseverance. Business management and the business environment has gone through a transformation over the past century, and economies around the world, including ours, have experienced storms which many businesses did not manage to survive,” said prime minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila.
“The government is committed to improve the business climate and ease of doing business, to attract foreign direct investment and to optimise support to local investors. I would also like to emphasise the importance of corporate social responsibility. Investment in our communities is a strategic investment that is in the interest of businesses as well. I call on our corporates to embrace this principle. I want to thank those who are doing so, such as Old Mutual, and I encourage them to continue,” Kuugongelwa-Amadhila added.
Habo Gerdes, the chairman of Old Mutual Namibia, emphasised that they will continue to remain committed to excellence and greatness.
“As Namibia’s premium financial services provider, we have a unique story to tell. A story of doing great things every day. Going forward we will continue to develop the capacity of Namibians and are ready to contribute meaningfully to the socio-economic transformation agenda of our country,” Gerdes said.
“We are shifting our focus to new and exciting channels to serve our customers through digital engagements and streamlining our processes to drive efficiencies. Without our customers we would not be where we are today, and we will be forever grateful,” Gerdes concluded.
