Sasfin: Earnings slide on lag effect
March 4, 2010

By Mzwandile Jacks
 
Sasfin's headline earnings for the six months to December last year slipped 27 percent to R48 million, hit by an economy still feeling the lag effect of the global financial crisis, the bank said yesterday.

Headline earnings a share sagged 32 percent year on year due to the dilutory effect of a capital injection from the International Finance Corporation (IFC).
 
Last year the IFC invested $30m (R239m) in Sasfin to enable it to spread lending to small and medium enterprises.

The investment consisted of a loan of $10m, a $10m trade finance guarantee and up to $10m in equity investment, enabling the IFC to hold up to 12 percent of Sasfin.. - Mzwandile Jacks
