Njabulo Ntombela — RE5 & RE1 exam coach

I am a financial services professional with hands-on experience across advice, sales, compliance, client service and branch operations. That background gives me a working understanding of the industry at both representative and management level — and it shapes how I teach the regulatory exams.

I joined Metropolitan as a Senior Financial Advisor after being approached directly on the strength of my track record, and I continue to practise in the field while coaching candidates through RE5 and RE1. My focus is simple: help you understand the legislation well enough to apply it, so the exam becomes the easy part.

Industry experience

  • Assistant Branch ManagerCapitec Bank
  • Financial AdvisorSanlam
  • Senior Financial Advisor (current)Metropolitan

Happy to share my employee code for verification of past positions (excluding Metropolitan, where I am currently employed).

Qualifications

  • BCom in Financial Management
  • RE5 – Representative Regulatory Exam
  • RE1 – Key Individual Regulatory Exam

I didn't just study the material — I've applied it in real business environments.

I write my own material

I'm not reselling someone else's notes. After deeply understanding the FAIS Act, preparing for the exams myself, writing and passing both RE5 and RE1, and gaining real industry experience, I built my material from:

  • My understanding of the FAIS Act
  • My personal exam preparation strategy
  • My real-world financial services experience
  • My passion for developing professionals in this field

That's why my content focuses on understanding and application — not just memorising sections of the Act.

My vision

  • Grow RE-Examprep into a trusted RE5 / RE1 coaching brand in South Africa
  • Help more candidates pass on their first attempt
  • Develop future leaders in financial services
  • Advance personally to Branch Manager at Metropolitan

I believe success in this industry comes from knowledge + application + leadership. If you're preparing for RE5 or RE1 and want guidance from someone who has walked the path — and is still actively in the field — I'm here to help.
