Invest with people who invest in you
In 1992 Discovery revolutionised medical aid through a single, profound insight: If people lived healthier lives, it would change insurance for good. It would also change society. We introduced rewards for healthy behaviour choices, and grew into a global organisation.
Discovery Invest brings the same philosophy: We encourage you to - and reward you for investing longer, investing more, living well and withdrawing wisely.

Our shared-value approach
Successful companies boost the economy as a whole - but society expects companies to make a difference while making a profit. We believe that a shared-value approach can lead to greater benefits for our own investors - and for society as a whole.
The earlier you start investing, the longer your money has to grow in the market and we generate surplus profit. We channel these profits back into boosts and extra rewards that encourage you to invest for longer, invest more, live well, and manage your money wisely in retirement. This benefits society as fewer people will be dependent on state resources or their own children in retirement.
