He brings a wealth of experience to Nedbank Namibia, having worked in the financial sector for over a decade. Mbuende received his education in Namibia, Australia, Malaysia and the United States.<\/p>\n<p>He holds a Master\u2019s of Arts (Economics) from the New School (a university in New York City) and a Bachelor of Business from the University of Technology, Sydney, Australia.<\/p>\n<p>The 39-year-old Mbuende\u2019s experience spans across economic research, banking and investment management. His stints include being Head: Public Sector at Standard Bank as well as Head of Distribution at Stanlib Namibia. He also previously worked at Namibia Unit Trust Managers Ltd as Executive Director and Head: Retail Business. His work experience furthermore includes working at Alexander Forbes Investment Namibia as Chief Operating Officer. Earlier in his career, Mbuende worked at the Institute for Public Policy Research as a research assistant.<\/p>\n<p>He explained how he ended up studying in Australia. \u201cI was studying through the University of Technology in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. As my majors in corporate finance and marketing were not available in my final year, I moved to Sydney, Australia to complete my bachelor\u2019s degree\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He later moved to New York, where he studied for a Master\u2019s of Arts (Economics), a move he said was meant to cement his global experience before returning to Namibia. Talking about joining Nedbank at this time of slow economic growth and the Covid-19 pandemic, Mbuende said it is a tough economic cycle, but he looks forward to the challenges of providing innovative solutions to Nedbank Namibia clients.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNedbank has been known to be committed to making an impact in society through green financing, responsible lending and support for sustainability initiatives. It resonated with me to be part of a bank that considers the long-term societal impacts in its business operations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mbuende noted that the economy has been in recession since 2016, and the pandemic has exacerbated pre-existing structural challenges. \u201cAs the consumer is strained, businesses that depend on the end-user will be hesitant to invest in such an environment. The implications for some financial service providers would be reduced business activity in the short-term. Additionally, the implications for those who provide services to consumers will also remain challenging over the short-term due to increased unemployment\u201d. He added that there has been an increase in the use of technology and innovation, coupled with leaner cost structures and more efficient expenditure within the industry.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on some of the things that he learnt early in his career, Mbuende said one of his mistakes was to implement strategy at a faster pace than what the culture of the business was able to absorb. \u201cThis resulted in resistance and other detours before we reached our strategic objectives\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
