Intergrated Report 2021

Explaining the cover of the Integrated Report 2021

The cover of the NEF Integrated Report 2021 depicts the building blocks of a national economy in peril, but determined to recover. Adorned in protective gear, the uniform of industry, the woman in the image is a metaphor for a unified army of workers, management and entrepreneurs hard at work to lift the economy out of the abyss precipitated by a devastating pandemic and a global economy in distress. Not only does the woman on the cover balance the pillar to achieve stability and growth, her resolve is buoyed by the assurance that the NEF, the funder with a soul that is symbolised by the resplendent glow of the rising sun, is the source of hope and resilience, determined in its mission to support black business for economic recovery.
