Her more recent IFC assignments involved reviewing the code of corporate governance for the Rwanda Capital Market Authority and the drafting of listings requirements pertaining to corporate governance for the Ghana Stock Exchange.

This role involved the design of the project and its governance structures, oversight of project implementation, stakeholder engagement and the drafting of the King IV Report.



Ansie’s prior positions include being the Chief Executive of the IoDSA from 2010 to 2014. Before joining the IoDSA, Ansie cut her business teeth at KPMG in the corporate restructuring and recovery environment with assignments that included the Saambou Bank receivership and Kebble insolvency.
