GUEST – Dawie de Villiers – CEO of Alexforbes



Alexforbes has delivered a strong set of results for the year ended 31 March 2025, coinciding with its 90th anniversary. Operating income increased 13% to R4 397 million owing to strong investments performance underpinned by positive market growth and robust new business flows, inflationary increases from within our retirements and healthcare consulting client base and high client retention. In addition, the consolidation of acquisitions completed in previous financial years and higher two-pot claims volumes also contributed to top line growth.



Profit from operations (before non-trading and capital items) increased 14% to R911 million. Cash generated from continuing operations remains strong at R1 230 million, up 15% year on year.
