SA Home Loans is proud to announce that Thekwini Fund 20, our latest securitisation, has been awarded “Securitisation Deal of the Year” at the 2026 edition of the Global Banking & Markets (GBM): Africa Awards.

This recognition highlights the strength of the structure and the expertise behind the transaction, and reflects the outstanding work of our Treasury team, whose precision, discipline and attention to detail helped bring this award-winning deal to life.

Strengthening our ability to unlock homeownership

At SA Home Loans, our purpose is to change lives by making it possible for more South Africans to own their own homes. Strong, sustainable funding is a critical part of delivering on that purpose.

Every successful securitisation strengthens our ability to:

• Lend responsibly
• Reach more aspiring homeowners
• Help more South African families open the door to a place they can truly call home

The recognition of Thekwini Fund 20 demonstrates how strategic funding initiatives support our mission of expanding access to homeownership.

Celebrating the team behind the achievement

This award is the result of exceptional teamwork across the organisation.

“A special congratulations goes to our Treasury team, and in particular Jyoti Maharaj, who led the project to bring this award-winning securitisation to life. Their expertise and commitment played a key role in achieving this recognition. We also thank everyone across the business who supported this work and contributed to the success of the transaction,” commented Abdul Khaliq Ismail, Director: DCM & Treasury.

Looking ahead

We are proud of this achievement and excited about what it enables us to do next, help even more South Africans become homeowners.”
