The Absa fellowship programme for African undergraduate students is looking for brave and passionate African leaders to go beyond the standards of what is attainable, to move humanity forward in ways that have not been discovered yet, to reframe, reimagine and reshape society.
Absa is an African group inspired by the people we serve. They are determined to be a group that is respected globally and that Africa can be proud of. They are committed to finding local solutions to uniquely local challenges and everything we do is focused on adding value. To this end, they offer a range of retail, business, corporate and investment, wealth management and insurance solutions.
