2 WHAT? Intellidex launched the Top Private Bank & Wealth Manager awards in 2012, based on an institutional questionnaire. In 2013 we added a survey of clients and the People s Choice award. This is the third edition, of what we believe is the only comprehensive public analysis of the industry. WHEN? The research phase was conducted between February and April The results were published in the Business Day Investors Monthly magazine on 30 April HOW? Intellidex, which conducts a range of different research across financial services in South Africa, designed two comprehensive questionnaires, one for private banks and wealth managers and another for their clients. WHY? A comprehensive survey provides important insight into the competitiveness of South Africa s private banks and wealth managers. The survey is structured in such a way so as to guide potential clients as to which institution is best placed to serve their individual needs. It also generates substantial statistical analysis that can be useful to firms looking to improve their products and services. WHO IS INTELLIDEX? Intellidex is a leading research house focused on South Africa s capital markets and financial services. We also undertake major research projects in stockbroking, retail banking, business banking and other areas. You can find out more at WANT TO KNOW MORE?

This includes demographic information and rankings from clients on their specific institutions on various aspects of service, products and costs, among others. We are able to provide detailed reports for private banks and wealth managers, with benchmarking against industry averages.

4 Methodology of the Private Banks & Wealth Managers Survey This survey was first undertaken in 2012 based on a questionnaire of institutions operating in the industry. In 2013 the client questionnaire was added. In each year, the results and analysis have been published in Business Day Investors Monthly, which is the media partner on the project. After each of the previous two exercises we have engaged extensively with the industry, taking their feedback on board. Below is an outline of the methodology as deployed in The survey has two components which should be looked at separately, each with its own questionnaire and information-gathering processes: 1: Private banks and wealth managers (institutional) questionnaire The assessment of institutions has two prongs: We asked private banks and wealth managers to complete a questionnaire. The questionnaire was compiled by Intellidex in the survey s inaugural year, 2012, and it gets revamped and updated every year after feedback from the market. It is a comprehensive questionnaire in which institutions need to go into detail to outline what services and products they can offer five typical client archetypes. We are particularly interested in the firms investment decision-making process and the products it would provide to clients, both from within and from other service providers. This year all but two institutions we approached provided us with completed questionnaires. In the case of the two firms which did not participate, we completed the questionnaires as best we could from public information. This ensures the process is comprehensive. We conduct our own research from all publicly available information on the firms, including reviews of the institutions websites, literature and other information, in order to audit the responses. 2: Client survey The client survey is conducted through an online questionnaire, compiled by Intellidex in 2013 and updated each year. This interrogates clients of private banks and wealth managers on their experiences with the firm, service standards and satisfaction levels. This year over clients began the survey with completing it, representing a good spread of the industry s members. Clients were incentivised with a R cash prize draw to be deposited in their private bank or wealth management accounts. This serves as a check that clients are genuine clients. Institutions are also encouraged to promote the client survey to their own clients. Anecdotally we believe about half the eligible institutions did so. We check the responses to ensure there are not automated completions from single IP addresses, or random completions, and check there are not unusual statistical patterns that would indicate manipulation. Assessment The assessment and scoring also have various aspects to it. First, Intellidex considers all the returned submissions from the private banks and wealth managers in conjunction with the reports from the assessment we carry out 4
5 ourselves from the public information available. Separately, we tabulate and summarise each competitor s scores from the client survey and use this in our analysis. This is also used to determine the winner of the People s Choice award for the firm that achieves the highest ranking from its clients. All the information from the firms, our research and the client survey is then consolidated into reports on each private bank or wealth manager, in preparation for assessment by our panel of judges. The panel consists of Intellidex chairman Stuart Theobald, analyst Warren Dick who been involved in the project since inception, and Orin Tambo, an Intellidex investment analyst. They assess all the firms in each of the five different archetypes as well as on the feedback from clients. Out of this we determine scores for each firm s ability to service the archetypes by average the scores each judge has given. Overall rankings The overall rankings are based on the sum of scores each institution scores for each archetype. This means that institutions who cater for a wide range of client types do better than those who specialise. For that reason, we consider the rankings per client archetype the more useful measure. These consolidate the judge s scores and rank the top three firms for each. The Peoples Choice winners are based purely on the feedback received through the client survey. To calculate scores, client responses to two questions were averaged, namely How do you rate your institution s overall service levels, and How likely are you to recommend your institution to friends and family. 5
6 INTRODUCTION This is our third assessment of SA s private banks and wealth managers. The results stem from a comprehensive questionnaire completed by the institutions and the feedback from clients via an online questionnaire. This year clients began the client survey with completing it. We consider the sample size to be a meaningful reflection of the views of the universe of clients of South African private banks and wealth managers. In this report we provide the results as well as some additional insights that stem from the survey. 6
