The engagement reflects the bank's longstanding commitment to the province and its continued support for inclusive economic growth, entrepreneurship, infrastructure development and community upliftment across South Africa's second-most populous province.
"KwaZulu-Natal is an integral part of South Africa's economic future and an important gateway to trade and growth across the African continent. As Africa's largest bank by assets, Standard Bank remains deeply committed to supporting sustainable growth in both the South African and broader African economies through investment, infrastructure development, business growth and financial inclusion," Tshabalala said ahead of his meeting with the ninth King of the Zulu nation.
"We value the opportunity to engage with His Majesty on our shared ambitions for the continued prosperity and development of the people of KwaZulu-Natal."
