Standard Chartered Bank Botswana appoints Tally Tshekiso as Non-Executive Director

Standard Chartered Bank Botswana has named renowned economist Tally Tshekiso as an independent non-executive director. The appointment comes as the bank navigates a pivotal phase, including the planned divestiture of its retail and wealth divisions.

Tshekiso, the founder and principal consultant of Tally Think Tank, brings a wealth of expertise in financial and economic analysis, serving both public and private sector clients.

His career has been marked by significant contributions to Botswana’s investment and economic policy landscape. Tshekiso has represented the country on international platforms, advocating for private sector-led investment to drive economic growth.

With a robust boardroom track record, Tshekiso has served on several prominent boards, including the Public Enterprises Evaluation and Privatisation Agency (PEEPA), the Botswana Export Development and Investment Authority (BEDIA), and, most recently, the African Alliance Botswana Group. His strategic insights and leadership are expected to bolster Standard Chartered’s governance as it pursues sustainable growth.

The appointment coincides with a critical juncture for the bank, which is currently evaluating shortlisted suitors for its retail and wealth divisions, following the announcement of their impending sale in November 2024. Tshekiso’s economic acumen and board experience are poised to guide the bank through this transition, ensuring decisions align with its long-term vision.
