In 1917, the Colonial Bank, which was founded by a Royal Charter in 1836 to trade in the West Indies, was acquired by Barclays as the nucleus for its colonial network – Barclays (Dominion, Colonial and Overseas), and started operations in Lagos, Nigeria. Subsequently, the then new Barclays DCO acquired branches of the National Bank of South Africa and one other bank (the Anglo Egyptian Bank in Lagos) to widen its international operations.

  • Absa Group Interim Results Highlight the Resilience of Its Business
    24 August 2020 For Immediate release Absa Group Interim Results Highlight the Resilience of its Business *Salient points Revenue increased 3% to R40.1 billion Operating costs fell 2% to R21.6 billion Cost-to-income ratio improved to 53.9% from 56.7% Pre-provision profit increased 9% to R18.5 billion Impairments increased four-fold to R14.7 billion Headline earnings declined 82% to R1.46 billion Return on equity declined to 2.6% from 16.4% - Group CET 1 ratio of 11%, well above regulatory requirements - Zero dividend declared Despite significantly higher credit impairments and the material impact of the lockdowns on transactional volumes, Absa Group, including all business units, remained profitable. In addition, revenue increased by 3% while cost-to-income ratio reduced from 56.7% to 53.9%. The group also reported an 82% decline in normalised interim earnings after impairments increased four-fold to R14.7 billion. Impairment charges rose as customers and clients struggled to repay debt and as the Group took decisive action to increase impairment provisions against future potential credit losses. The Group expects a continued difficult environment for the consumer and heightened uncertainty is expected in the remainder of 2020. “In the current economic climate, ensuring continued operational and financial resilience is paramount. We are therefore temporarily holding our growth ambitions in abeyance to focus on cost management and capital and liquidity preservation, while continuing to support customers,” said Daniel Mminele, Absa Group Chief Executive. While the negative impact of the crisis on Absa’s earnings is clear, the interim results also highlight the resilience of the business.
