“This is an immense privilege and honour. We thank Global Brands Magazine and Global Banking & Finance respectively for recognising us and our efforts. Above all, however, we thank the very people who make us the business we are: our staff who work so hard to deliver exceptional client experiences, and clients who trust us with their business and their peace of mind. They inspire us every day to do more and to do better. We must also recognise that it is the strong regulatory environment we have in Botswana that gives us permission to operate and to operate in the way that we do. It is a complex and competitive environment, but one that is stable, well governed and encouraging of growth and progress. It is to all these valued stakeholders we are privileged to work with and for that we share this incredible honour,” said Botswana Life CEO, Mr. Ronald Samuels.
