ABSA GROUP LIMITED - A WORLD OF POSSIBILITIES AS AN INDEPENDENT, AFRICAN BANK

Aron Luhanga, Barclays Tanzania
Head of Marketing and Corporate Relations

There is nothing permanent except change,” said Greek philosopher Heraclitus, and how true this is Change – and fast-paced change – is a hallmark of today’s society.

Change can be unsettling at times. But it can also be exciting, filled with new beginnings. It marks the start of a new journey, a new page in the history books.

This is where Absa Group Limited found itself after separating from Barclays PLC, in one of the largest corporate separation projects in commercial history: at the beginning of a new era, with endless possibilities.

This shift in the Group’s stakeholders freed us to chart our path as an African Bank, run by Africans, with global recognition and scalability. Importantly, it gave birth to one of the largest independent African Banks.

As part of this shift the Group renamed our listed entity to Absa Group Limited last year, choosing Absa as our brand across our 10 operations and two affiliates in Africa, pending regulatory approvals.

As we move forward, we will become Absa across all our operations, leveraging the impressive brand equity and home-grown success of our South African subsidiary, while building on the Barclays’ pedigree in Africa.

Absa has been one of the “big five banks” in South Africa for more than 30 years, winning a multitude of awards for its commercial success, social commitment, and innovation. As a Group, we are listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, with a balance sheet of around US$100-billion.

NMB BANK PLC TO PAY TZS 33 BILLION IN DIVIDENDS

Dar es Salaam, June 15, 2019 – NMB Bank Plc. (“NMB”) declares a TZS 66 dividend per share.

NMB shareholders have approved the proposed amount during the Annual General Meeting (AGM) that was held in Dar es Salaam today.

As a result of improved performance and a strong capital position, the total recommended dividend payment of TZS 33 billion (TZS 66 per share) is in line with the bank’s dividend policy of paying a third (33.3%) of its profit after tax (PAT) in dividends. This is a 3% increase compared to TZS 64 per share paid the previous year. The intention is to increase the dividend per share over time as the Bank’s performance continues to improve.

The bank reported a TZS 142 billion profit before tax (PBT) for the year ending December 31 2018; a 3% increase from 138 billion that was recorded in the previous year. Besides the said profit gains, Board and Management of NMB are pleased to be able to report a number of innovations and successes during the year. The innovations, the launch of KLiK propositions, Salary Advance, the first mobile loan product for the Bank. The establishment of 6,800+ Wakalas and the integration with over 180 local councils for electronic collections, are all contributing to enhanced financial inclusion through digital channels and increased deposits, and also enhancing internet banking to better serve the corporate segment and provide total corporate solutions as shown by the growth in customers from 2,2 million to 3,1 million in 2018.

The stable B1 credit rating awarded to NMB by Moody’s confirms the confidence of international investors in the bank. The bank is well capitalized with a Tier I Capital Ratio of 16.5% and is highly liquid. The Bank’s Chairman, Prof. Joseph Semboja, revealed that the Board seeks to balance maximizing shareholders’ returns while also reinvesting funds into the bank’s business in order to finance its growth plans.

BENKI YA NMB PLC KULIPA GAWIO LA SH. BILIONI 33

Dar es Salaam, June 15, 2019 – Benki ya NMB Plc. (NMB), kulipa gawio la Shilingi 66 kwa kila Hisa.

Wanahisa wa Benki ya NMB wameidhinisha kiasi kilichopendekezwa wakati wa Mkutano Mkuu wa Mwaka (AGM), uliofanyika leo jijini Dar es Salaam.

Ikiwa ni matokeo ya utendaji bora na uimara wa nafasi ya mitaji, malipo ya jumla ya gawio la Shilingi Bilioni 33 (sawa na Shilingi 66 kwa kila hisa), yanafanana na sera ya benki ya kulipa moja ya tatu (asilimia 33.3) ya faida la jumla baada ya makato ya kodi (PAT) katika gawio. Hili ni ongezeko la asilimia 3 ukilinganisha na bei ya Shilingi 64 kwa kila hisa iliyolipwa mwaka uliopita. Nia ni kukuza kiwango cha gawio kwa kila hisa, kulingana na utendaji bora wa benki unavyoongezeka.
