First National Bank of Namibia (FNB) Retail announced on Monday that it has appointed Mbo Luvindao as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective 11 November 2025.

The bank, in a media statement, noted that Luvindao brings over 20 years of senior leadership experience in Namibia's banking and financial services sector.

Luvindao began his career at Bank Windhoek, where he held several leadership roles, including Head of the SME Segment, before joining NamPost as an Executive for Financial Services. 

He later served as Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) at Letshego Bank Namibia, where he led the institution's commercial strategy.

His appointment follows the transition of former Retail Chief Economic Officer Nangula Kauluma into her new role as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Retail, FNB Broader Africa, within the FirstRand Group.

Luvindao said joining FNB Namibia was an honour, noting the bank's strong leadership legacy and reputation for innovation and customer-centric service. 

He expressed his commitment to strengthening the retail franchise and supporting the bank's strategic priorities to deliver value to communities across the country.

FirstRand Namibia CEO, Conrad Dempsey, welcomed the appointment, saying Luvindao's extensive sector experience and strategic insight make him well suited to lead FNB's retail division into its next phase of growth.
