The event marked the official handover of leadership to Valdene Reddy, who will become the JSE's third woman CEO.
The ceremony drew a high-profile audience, including Deputy Minister of Finance David Masondo, Minister of Trade, Industry and Competition Parks Tau, South African Reserve Bank Governor Lesetja Kganyago, and SARS Commissioner Edward Kieswetter. Former JSE chairs and CEOs, such as Roy Andersen and Russell Loubser, were also present, along with leading banking executives and legal luminaries including Advocate Thuli Madonsela, Jaco Maree, and Mike Brown.
Niël Pretorius, CEO of DRD Gold - the first company listed on the JSE more than 130 years ago - also attended the event as well as Ann Mackeurtan, the first woman allowed to trade as a stockbroker.
Dr Fourie, who took the reins from Nicky Newton-King in October 2019, has guided the JSE through unprecedented challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic, volatile global markets, and rapid technological and regulatory shifts.
