Once upon a time in 1977, three entrepreneurs: Laurie Dippenaar, GT Ferreira and Pat Goss started a small financial structuring house in Johannesburg. They called their company Rand Consolidated Investments (RCI) and built the business on the foundation of Traditional values. Innovative ideas.
After Pat stepped down, a new partner, Paul Harris joined. A few years later the entrepreneurs merged their successful lending and financing business with Johann Rupert’s Rand Merchant Bank and changed the name RCI to RMB. RMB became part of the broader FirstRand group in 1998.
