African financial services is one of the most talent-competitive sectors on the continent. Lagos and Nairobi fintech scenes, South African banking groups, Ghanaian financial institutions — all compete for the same pool of skilled professionals who have more options than ever. Recognition is one of the most cost-effective retention tools available, and financial services companies are increasingly treating it as a strategic investment rather than an HR nicety.

We lost three strong analysts to a global bank last year. Recognition was one of the gaps we identified. Since launching this programme, voluntary attrition in our analyst cohort is down significantly.
