Tom Minney
As GM of the Namibian Stock Exchange, I created and executed strategy that led to fast growth in listings, trading and stockbroking members. We focused on the exchange’s contribution to development and jobs and we won support from leaders, policymakers, business, public and the financial sector.
Consultant with African and international stock exchanges, regulators and businesses over 20 years. I have delivered successful strategy plans (with industry buy-in), organizational development, increased the number of listed issuers, and project-managed a cross-border linkage for stockbrokers on 7 leading markets.
Other success stories include capital raising, and corporate governance learned through hands-on experience as a board member for global businesses. As a certified Project Manager, I ensure successful design, execution and communication and keep key stakeholders on board.
Before joining the capital markets, I trained and worked as a professional writer and broadcaster. I have great communication, speaking, analysis and writing skills. I love telling business stories that build trust and participation, for exchanges and for companies raising capital or focusing on investor relations. I enjoy training and knowledge-sharing to empowers investors.
