Shepstone & Wylie Attorneys

When governance fails, people pay the price — and when it works, it safeguards their future. 

In this inaugural episode of The Guardians, Henry Dul, CEO of Independent Trustee Services, joins Dr Johan Esterhuizen, lead partner in Shepstone & Wylie’s Pension Law and Employee Benefits team, to unpack what “governance” truly means in South Africa’s retirement fund landscape. 

They help us understand why independence is the cornerstone of accountability, how proactive oversight protects member savings, and the lessons the industry must learn from recent fund failures.
