“Today, we are also here to celebrate their new offering, Trustee Services. The commission registered Kreston as a trustee for collective investment schemes in February this year and this brings the total number of registered trustees to seven.”

Trustee Services provides a range of fiduciary and trust administration services for financial transactions.

These services include compliance monitoring, relationship management, project management, fund accounting, register maintenance, receipts and settlements.

“We encourage Kreston Zimbabwe to continue in their commitment to delivering exceptional services, fostering strong relationships and driving growth so that they continue to provide services that deliver more investor confidence and growth of the market,” Taruvinga said.

Kreston Zimbabwe managing partner Modern Mutumwa lauded clients, partners and employees for walking with the firm.

“Without your unwavering trust, your steadfast partnership and your support, we would not be standing here today, celebrating the tremendous success of Kreston Zimbabwe,” he said.

“You have been the driving force behind all that we have achieved and we are truly honoured and humbled to have had the privilege of serving you and contributing to the growth and prosperity of your businesses and we look forward to strengthening our built relations in the future.”

He said the firm owed its stakeholders an immense debt of gratitude.

“Your confidence in our abilities, your willingness to collaborate with us and your commitment to our shared goals have been instrumental in shaping our firm into the respected alternative it is today,” Mutumwa said.

He said the firm’s resilience and determination had led to a successful journey despite the hurdles along the way.

“Consultancy market was highly saturated with registered and unregistered players, but we refused to be deterred. Instead, we worked tirelessly, leveraging expertise, fostering innovation and maintaining an unwavering customer-centric approach,” Mutumwa said.

“Through sheer determination, we were able to gradually carve out our own niche in the industry. In 2019, MJV joined Kreston Global. From the very beginning, we have been steadfastly committed to giving back to the communities we serve.

“This has been a core tenet of our corporate identity, woven into the fabric of our operations and the way we do business.”-newsda
