Robert began his career in 1990 when he joined Irish & Company
Stock Brokers. In 1994 he became one of the youngest members of
the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and was subsequently made a
partner of the enlarged firm of Irish Menell Rosenberg. In 1998
Robert sold his 26% shareholding of Irish Menell Rosenberg to
The Appleton Group.
Robert started South Africa's first online stockbroker called
U-Trade in January 1999. The company was listed on the
Johannesburg Stock Exchange later that year. U-Trade was merged
with the Appleton Group in January 2001 in a deal which formed
South Africa's largest private client stockbroker. The
transaction resulted in Robert selling his 49% shareholding in
U-Trade, however he continues to be an active member of the
institute of stockbrokers.
In June 2001 Robert purchased 100% of Companhia Geral De Seguros
De Mozambique (CGSM) a Mozambique Insurance company. Robert
together with Andrew Lewis merged CGSM, Baronscourt, Kindle
Insurance Technologies, Selene Re-Insurance to form Global
Alliance Holdings.
