At 10X we are obsessed with investment performance. Consistent, reliable, repeatable, on-target investment returns for our clients and their clients in turn.

We are an independent investment manager, and our over 16‑year track record speaks for itself. We manage over R60bn across a range of investment products, servicing South Africans across our Intermediaries, Direct‑to‑Consumer, and Employee Benefits channels.
