Werner Kriel

Head of Advisory Services

I have proudly been part of the FinGlobal team since 2013, and I’m here because I understand how complex and overwhelming cross-border finances can be for South African expats.

With over 30 years in financial services, I’ve spent the past decade helping expats navigate retirement fund withdrawals, exchange control, tax emigration, and international fund transfers. I bring technical expertise and practical solutions to every client I assist.

What motivates me is helping real people overcome real challenges. I’ve worked with clients around the world who’ve struggled to access funds, deal with SARS, or get answers from banks and insurers. My team and I are here to simplify those processes and remove the stress.

At FinGlobal, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. I take time to understand your goals, concerns, and timelines so we can build the right strategy for your needs.

We’ve been assisting expats since 2009 and are a fully licensed, regulated Financial Services Provider, trusted by thousands globally.

Let’s start with a conversation. No pressure, no commitment, and no cost. Just a free consultation to understand where you are and how we can help.

I look forward to connecting with you.

Let us call you for a FREE consultation
