Another Reason to be Proudly South African

The world is in or starting to recover from a recession and it takes a company from a "third world" country to sponsor one of the biggest events in the UK. Well done and definitely deserves a mention and all the credit. Well done Investec.

Proof that SA can produce some of the finest business people and companies in the world.

Perhaps SA may just become the center of the new world economy. We should already be with all of our mineral wealth!

Excellant exposure they got as well,money well spent...

In it for the next 5 years - Investec a household nam in the Uk after today

Don't think so cause the Derby is the Derby no matter who sponsors it.

They are the main sponsors of English rugby

I wonder if Mr Kantor enjoyed tea and scones with the queen?

There you go al,bit of exposure for Investec

Very difficult to miss the branding!!!!

Good stuff well done to all.

Ever since Investec were announced as the sponsors the Epsom Derby has been referred to as the "Investec Derby" in all the pre race talk.

I was at the Derby yesterday and the branding was all the place. The race was on the BBC yesterday and also went out to many parts of the world.

There can't be too many bigger sporting events in the UK where a sponsor gets that much mileage and from what I have heard they bought the rights at a very reasonable price.

Anyone who has any form of interest in the Derby will obviously remember the name Investec.

100% Saksy.

Channel 207 covered the Investec Derby, the footage, camera work and interviews even outshone the Americans coverage on big events,our local coverage has a lot to learn.
