About Old Mutual

Old Mutual Limited (OML) is a premium African financial services group that offers a broad spectrum of financial solutions to retail and corporate customers across key markets in 14 countries. Old Mutual’s purpose is to help its customers thrive by enabling them to achieve their lifetime financial goals, while investing their funds in ways that will create a positive future for them, their families, their communities, and the broader society. Old Mutual aims to be Africa’s premier financial services company where it has deep roots, strong relationships, and an intimate understanding of retail and consumer markets and its customers’ needs.

Old Mutual was started in Africa in 1845, and rapidly developed into a recognized brand across much of Southern Africa. Over the years its business expanded internationally and in 1999 it listed on the London Stock Exchange (LSE).

In March 2016, it was decided that the best way forward for the Old Mutual Group was to separate its four strong businesses into independent, standalone companies. The foremost aim of this strategy – called Managed Separation – has been to unlock and create value for shareholders. In short, it became clear that the Group’s complex structure and the high running costs of operating in diverse geographies and regulatory environments actually locked in value to unlock that value, a Managed Separation of the four underlying businesses – Old Mutual Emerging Markets, Nedbank, UK based Old Mutual Wealth and US based Old Mutual Asset Management – was necessary.

As part of that Managed Separation, it was agreed that Old Mutual Emerging Markets (OMEM) would strengthen its focus on Africa and move its primary listing to Africa. As Old Mutual Limited, its primary listing is now on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. Old Mutual also has a standard listing on the London Stock Exchange and secondary listings on three other stock exchanges in Africa: Namibia, Malawi and Zimbabwe.

  • Africa (South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania, Nigeria, Ghana, Uganda, Rwanda, South Sudan, and eSwatini)
