The Asset Management mandate is to maximise the returns from the Transnet property portfolio and to grow the asset base using best practice asset management principles.

Our portfolio of properties which is spread across South Africa lends itself to development through joint investment partnerships between Transnet and external partners. To that end, various precincts are continuously identified and included in the pipeline of future private sector partnership (PSP) developments, mainly in the retail, industrial and commercial space, and taken out to the market.

Service offerings within the Asset Management function include:
