A Short Backstory
5 Decades of Protecting What Matters Most
SNIB was born in Durban with a simple promise: to look after families and businesses the way we’d want our own looked after. For over five decades we’ve been the quiet, trusted partner behind thousands of KZN legacies – guiding investments, shielding against risk, simplifying claims, and crafting estate plans that bring real peace of mind.
Today, as an independent, FSCA-regulated brokerage (FSP 4696), we still live by the same values: honesty, genuine care, and advice that always puts you and your family first.
Our Mission
Your Family. Our Priority. Since 1974
To protect what matters most to you – your family, your wealth, and your peace of mind – with honest, tailored advice that feels personal, never transactional.
For over 50 years we’ve stayed true to one simple promise: treat every client the way we’d want our own loved ones looked after.
That’s why, as a fully independent and FSCA-regulated brokerage (FSP 4696), we always put your future first.
