FNB Namibia and RMB Namibia have appointed new chief executives in a leadership reshuffle within the FirstRand Namibia Group.
Philip Chapman has been named Chief Executive Officer of FNB Commercial, moving from his previous role as CEO of RMB Namibia.
Chapman has led RMB Namibia’s corporate and investment banking operations and brings extensive experience in advisory, transactional and lending activities. He said his background working with large corporates and institutional investors has given him insight into the challenges businesses face.
“As I step into the role at FNB Commercial, I look forward to supporting our country’s commercial clients with integrated financial solutions that enable sustainable growth locally and across borders,” he said.
Daniel Motinga has been appointed CEO of RMB Namibia, succeeding Chapman.
Motinga has nearly two decades of experience in commercial and investment banking. He most recently headed the Client Segment business unit at RMB Namibia, where he led segment strategy, client engagement and deal origination.
“I am honoured to lead a franchise that continues to deliver world-class solutions in our home market and beyond,” Motinga said.
FirstRand Namibia Group Chief Executive Officer Conrad Dempsey said the appointments reflect the group’s succession planning and leadership depth.
“Both Philip and Daniel bring deep market insight and proven records of delivering for clients. They are well positioned to guide FNB Commercial and RMB Namibia forward,” Dempsey said.
