In a world where financial security has become more important—and more challenging—than ever, the partnership between Discovery and DWD Financial Planners is helping South Africa?"> South Africans take control of their financial wellbeing. By combining Discovery’s market-leading products with DWD’s personalised financial planning approach, clients benefit from a powerful ecosystem designed to reward smart decisions, reduce risk, and build long-term wealth.
A Partnership Rooted in Shared-Value
Discovery’s shared-value philosophy is simple:
When people engage in healthier, safer, and more responsible behaviours, they should be rewarded for it.
Through products such as Discovery Life, Discovery Invest, Discovery Insure, and Vitality, individuals can earn rewards, lower premiums, and improve their financial position simply by making better lifestyle and financial choices.
At DWD Financial Planners, we integrate these Discovery solutions into our clients’ broader financial plans—ensuring that they not only benefit from the rewards, but also use them to strengthen their long-term financial strategy.
Real Impact: How Discovery Products Support DWD Clients

- She improved her long-term risk profile
- Reduced premiums through ongoing Vitality engagement
- Boosted her investment contributions using earned rewards

Why This Matters

Empower individuals with tools, guidance, and strategies that reward better choices—today and for decades to come.
From retirement planning and risk cover to investment portfolios and estate structuring, DWD helps clients maximise the full value of Discovery’s innovations while maintaining independent, client-first advice.
