WHAT DIFFERENTIATES LOMBARD?

Our guarantees are universally accepted by beneficiaries (e.g. major utility providers, government departments, mining houses and the private sector) both in South Africa and the rest of Africa.

Regulation in most African territories prohibits non-local companies from issuing guarantees in such territories. To this end, Lombard has sought and secured partnerships with the leading players resulting in an extensive partner network, which allows for easy access to locally-issued guarantees in the respective markets.

We are able to issue guarantees in most major currencies (USD, GBP, EUR), as well as most regional currencies.

Lombard is able to formulate contemporary, value-driven and customised solutions through its network of industry professionals, multi-skilled in-house team and knowledge of the markets they serve.
