AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK 2020 ANNUAL MEETINGS: BUILDING AFRICA BACK BETTER AFTER THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC
ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast, August 24, 2020/ -- For the first time in the history of the African Development Bank (http://www.AfDB.org), its Annual Meetings will be held virtually to comply with the COVID-19 pandemic-related social-distancing guidelines.
The Governors' Dialogue and the election of a president will be top of the agenda of the upcoming Meetings scheduled for 26-27 August 2020.
This year, which marks the 55th meeting of the Bank's Board of Governors and the 46th Annual Meeting of the African Development Fund, the Bank's concessional arm, has the added significance of being an election year for the Bank's president. The incumbent, Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, is running as the sole candidate for a new five-year term.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic hit the continent's shores in early March, over 1,000,000 confirmed cases of the virus have been recorded in Africa. The pandemic has hit the region's economies hard in the wake of falling commodity prices and containment measures by governments that have led to country lockdowns.
For several months, the Bank has been extending support to regional member countries in cushioning their economies, health systems, and citizens' livelihoods from parallel health and economic impacts from COVID-19.
ABSA EARNINGS DECLINE AS ECONOMIC IMPACT OF COVID-19 INCREASES IMPAIRMENT CHARGES
*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
Absa Group Ltd. today 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.
Despite significantly higher credit impairments and the material impact of the lockdowns on transactional volumes, the Group, including all business units, remained profitable. The Group expects a continued difficult environment for the consumer and heightened uncertainty is expected to dampen business confidence and investment 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.
Absa extended significant support to customers and clients across its operating markets. In South Africa, the Group’s largest market, Absa implemented a comprehensive payment relief plan. Measures included credit payment relief, insurance premium relief, the temporary expansion of the Credit Life product to cover a wider definition of loss of income, the waiving of Saswitch fees, and supporting the distribution of social grants and pension payments.

Kwa hiyo tumeona kuwa tukishirikiana na waandaaji, tunaweza kuyafanya mashindano haya kuwa makubwa na bora zaidi na hivyo kuleta faida kubwa kwa soka la Tanzania” alisema Kimario.
Mkurugenzi huyo amebainisha kuwa Benki ya KCB imekuwa mbia muhimu katika michezo hapa nchini na wanatarajia kuwekeza zaidi ili kuongeza mchango wao kwa maendeleo ya jamii. “Mbali na biashara yetu ya msingi ambayo ni kutoa huduma bora za benki kwa watanzania, pia tumewekeza sana kwenye miradi ya kijamii ikiwemo kukuza michezo hapa nchini”.
Huu ukiwa ni mwaka was saba tangu kuanza kwa mashindano hayo yanayoandaliwa na Clouds Media Group, tayari Ndondo Cup imekuwa na mafanikio makubwa ikiwemo kutoa wachezaji zaidi ya 100 ambao wameingia mikataba na vilabu vya kimataifa huku wengine wengi wakicheza hapa nchini katika ligi mbalimbali ikiwemo ligi kuu.
Mratibu wa michuano hiyo Shafi Dauda amesema kutokana na udhamini huu wa Benki ya KCB na kwakuwa sasa michuano hiyo inaonekana mubashara kuitia PlusTV ndani ya kisimbuzi cha DStv, bila shaka umaarufu wa mashindano hayo utaongezeka kwani sasa yataonekana hadi nje ya nchi ambapo DStv inaonekana.

CLYDE & CO UPDATER - BANK OF TANZANIA'S MONETARY POLICY AND NON-PERFORMING LOANS IN LIGHT OF COVID-19
As countries across Africa deal with the impacts of COVID-19, the Bank of Tanzania (BoT) has recently introduced the June 2020 Monetary Policy Statement which addresses a number of key concerns in Tanzania, including the impact of COVID-19 on non-performing loans (NPLs).
In this article we consider the actions the BoT has been taking to bolster the economy and the effectiveness of these actions. We also consider similar actions that have been taken in Kenya.
Actions taken by the BoT
In our article of March 2018, found here, we discussed the measures taken by the Bank of Tanzania (BoT) to reduce the number of NPLs. Briefly, as a result of a slow-down in private sector growth and the increasing number of NPLs, the BoT recommended minimum strategies and granted reliefs to assist in tackling the growing number of NPLs through the BoT Circular No. FA.178/461/01/02, found here.
While the impact of the Circular was evident in that NPLs declined from 11.1 percent in April 2019 to 10.7 percent in June 2019 and 9.8 percent in December 2019¹, the Monetary Policy Statement identifies that the ratio of NPLs to gross loans has increased to 11 percent in April 2020 following the outbreak of COVID-19. Certain sectors have been hit harder than others but it is anticipated that the monetary and fiscal measures the BoT introduced earlier this year, as discussed in our article here, will cushion the economy from the impacts of COVID-19 and reduce the risk of deterioration of loan portfolios. The various policy measures introduced by the BoT include lowering the statutory minimum reserves requirement, lowering the discount rates as well as providing regulatory flexibility on restructuring of loans.
