Capital Markets Specialist structuring and advisory business Scope of activities The growth and development of the business over the last few years has caused us to reflect on the appropriateness of the name Treasury and Specialised Finance. The name is not reflective of our core activities and has caused some confusion in the market, as a result from now on we will rebrand ourselves Investec Capital Markets. This does not mean a change of direction of the business. The Capital Markets division provides a wide range of specialist products, services and solutions to select corporate clients, public sector bodies and institutions. The division undertakes the bulk of Investec's wholesale debt, structuring, proprietary trading, capital markets and derivatives business. Strategic focus Our objectives include: Continuing to remain a focused and specialised business, targeting markets and products where we can be distinctive and competitive. Seeking through strong discipline, that is centred on clients and delivery of structured products: -   Asset creation opportunities. -   Product structuring and distribution opportunities. -   Trading, hedging and proprietary market opportunities. -   Advisory mandates. Creating platforms for the origination and securitisation of internal and third party originated banking assets on a sustainab le basis. Developing our market leading position, focusing on growth initiatives and growing a portfolio of quality term assets. Continuing to concentrate on systems, processes and automation, to ensure maximum competitive advantage and long-term cost savings. Taking advantage of opportunities to use our specialist skills to launch specialist funds. Investing in the future and targeting growth.
