Investec founders: eavesdrop on business icons Ian Kantor, Bernard Kantor, Stephen Koseff

Even in Investec's formative years there was little doubt that something exceptional was being created. In this fascinating Noontime Thursday webinar, BizNews founder Alec Hogg speaks to the first CEO and subsequent chairman of Investec, Ian Kantor; his brother, fellow co-founder and subsequent MD of the UK operations Bernard Kantor; and another co-founder, long-time CEO Stephen Koseff. The iconic business legends reminisce about the extraordinary journey of Investec – from their first acquisition to their endorsement of Tottenham Hotspur. The witty and personal banter captured in this webinar makes you feel like you're eavesdropping on a conversation. On the subject of human dynamics in business, Ian states that the idea that anyone could make any decision they liked as long as it was unanimous was the basis of what they refer to as Investec's culture. "There's nothing more to it. Anything you like as long as it's unanimous, which means you really get to understand each other pretty well and the substance of what you're dealing with. And that, in a way, became the binding factor between us." – Nadya Swart

Alec Hogg: Welcome to our three guests: Stephen Koseff, Ian Kantor and Bernard Kantor. We are talking Investec today and what triggered this resignation of Ian Kantor off the board of Investec after forty-five years. It's quite extraordinary.
