Setting the Standard.
Shaping the Future.
Join a community united by experience, shared standards and expertise, carried forward by people who believe the future of the profession deserves more than maintaining the status quo. For decades, the South African Institute of Stockbrokers (SAIS) has brought professionals together to raise standards, champion excellence and shape the future of South African financial markets.
Strengthening the Profession,
Together
For decades, SAIS has brought financial market professionals together to strengthen the industry through shared expertise. A place where careers grow, knowledge is shared and the future of the profession is shaped collectively rather than individually. Working alongside regulators, government and industry, SAIS helps ensure the profession has a trusted voice, one that continues to build confidence, influence progress and shape South African financial markets for generations to come.
The role of the SAIS is to set and maintain the qualification
standards for stockbrokers and other financial market professionals.
Ensuring that professionals have the requisite knowledge and skills is a further aim, as is ensuring that knowledge and skills remain current and relevant.
As the voice for industry, the SAIS has a responsibility to ensure that perspectives and opinions of the broader financial markets industry are considered when commenting and interacting with the regulators and government.
