Deteriorating economic conditions in SA and parts of Africa weighed on the group in its year to end-December

Credit impairment charges rose 23% to R7.96bn, with the group saying it expected sustained economic weakness in SA in the absence of tangible progress by the government in pursuing its reform programmes.
