Platform Overview

TL:DR

The Investec Online Web Platform is a set of software and a surrounding ecosystem of resources that helps you to build your business unit features and serve them to clients via the login.secure.investec.com website.

The platform enables growth through connection: its value comes not only from its own features, but from its ability to connect external tools, teams, data, and processes.
