Erwin Tjipuka has assumed his new role as Chief Executive of Standard Bank Namibia Holdings (SBN) and Standard Bank Namibia Limited.
He takes over from Standard Bank Namibia’s Head of Corporate and Investment Banking, Nelson Lucas, who had been serving as Acting Chief Executive since May 24, 2023.
Tjipuka is the former CEO of FNB Namibia and replaces Mercia Geises, who resigned from the Namibian Stock Exchange listed banking group.
Standard Bank is ,however, still in the hunt for a permanent Chief Financial Officer (CFO) after appointing Elizabeth du Toit in an acting capacity in August, following the resignation of Letitia du Plessis in May.
