10th January 2022

Congratulations to Nicky Newton-King (Chair: Board of Governors and Past Parent) who received the degree Doctor of Laws (LLD) honoris causa from the University of Stellenbosch.

She is honoured for her contribution to developing South African financial law and regulation, and strengthening the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) as a foundational pillar of South Africa's economy, through her leadership of more than 23 years.

In 2012, she became the first female chief executive officer of the JSE in its 125-year history. As a corporate finance and securities regulation lawyer, she has made an enduring contribution to the fields of law and commerce.

Nicky, we are very proud of your achievements!
