GTC Johannesburg

Effective late 2012, GTC was obliged to separate itself from the audit practice as a result of various international regulations separating the asset management and financial advisory capability of any business from that of Grant Thornton.

This regulatory change resulted in the Grant Thornton practice reducing its shareholding and the business changing its name from that of Grant Thornton Capital to GTC.

Today GTC continues to have Grant Thornton as a shareholder together with management. Gary Mockler, the founder of GTC, remains the Chief Executive Officer and a shareholder and the association between GTC and Grant Thornton continues within the parameters permitted by international regulation.

Collectively the Group employs over 100 staff in the three national centers. Assets under management totals some R26 billion with several more billion Rand also being under GTC’s administration. There are some 85 000 participating members of retirement funds through some 300 participating employer schemes, most of these structured through one of several GTC umbrella funds. In addition, GTC consults to some 2 500 private clients in terms of their wealth management goals.

GTC continually aspires to being recognised in a crowded market place as a benchmark of best practice and innovative thinking. This objective is measured by ensuring that the interests of all of our clients are protected and placed at the core of all our decisions, business practices, company culture and ethics.

GTC has established a strong reputation over its 23 year history, evolving from within an international audit and advisory business. The depth of GTC’s services, the quality of the staff, the uncompromising stance on integrity and professionalism and the easy accessibility to senior management and shareholders justifies the extraordinary client retention that GTC enjoys.
