Mr. Booysen has 18 years of experience in the finance industry, with a further 10 years as chief executive officer of CGF Research Institute. His day-to-day responsibilities include meeting with companies to discuss and assess governance, risk and compliance (GRC) matters and the implications that GRC can have on their business.

Prior to joining CGF, Mr. Booysen worked for many well-known financial institutions such as Barclays Bank, First National Bank, Santam Bank and Nedbank.
Mr. Booysen attributes his success to hard work, dedication and passion.
