Giving back to his community in the Eastern Cape (through sport, especially in cricket and rugby) and building young leaders across the AFRICAN continent is what defines the Professional Banker and Community Builder, Mr Lincoln Mali. Along his professional journey he contributed to the leadership in the South African Government, the legal fraternity and the banking sector, including fulfilling his father’s dream of studying at Harvard. He has seen it all in Africa when it comes to banking while at the Standard Bank. His legal studies and student activism at high school and Rhodes University laid the foundation for this great career. The continent is privileged to have such a committed professional toward imparting knowledge to the young generation.
