Africa’s best for discretionary portfolio management 2026: FNB Private

Discretionary portfolio management (DPM) has become an increasingly important component of modern private banking, allowing clients to delegate day-to-day investment decisions while maintaining exposure to disciplined portfolio construction and institutional investment expertise.

In Africa’s wealth market, where many clients still prefer advisory-led investing, building scale in discretionary mandates requires both strong investment performance and deep client trust. FNB Private has succeeded in doing both, establishing one of the most advanced DPM platforms in the region.

At the core of the bank’s proposition is a structured investment framework supported by the FNB Investment Institute, which contributes macroeconomic analysis, strategic asset allocation input and portfolio construction expertise to the bank’s discretionary mandates.
