| Sasfin has always looked to provide solutions to its clients and therefore has developed a wide range of products and business units which complement one another in offering the client a full solution. |
| |
| In 1997 Sasfin acquired a majority stake in freight forwarding and customs clearing company Premier Freight and in 2006 formed Sasfin Asia, a Hong Kong based subsidiary. Together with its already well established Trade Finance business and Foreign Exchange desk, these four products enable Sasfin to offer a full foreign trade solution. |
| |
| Sasfin also acquired an interest in private equity company, MDM Investment Holdings (which Sasfin later fully acquired) and took over the Corporate Finance unit of Frankel Pollak, thereby being able to offer high growth entrepreneurs either a debt or an equity solution or some form of combination. |
| |
| Finally, in the private wealth management space, Sasfin recently launched SAM, an Asset Management business which complements its Stockbroking and Financial Planning business units. |
| |
| A timeline of developments since the Frankel Pollak deal shows that Sasfin’s diversification and expansion continued as an ongoing programme over the decade since then. |
