The first four banks are for South Africa. Does that means South African banks are good in maintaining assets than other African banks? If so then how do those banks boost the South African country on economy? Are there any bad effects on country’s economy if the bank’s assets standard level decline? I love my South African Country!
Yes.South African banks are maintaining their assets and growing their business profitably. For your other questions, you may want to do some research online.Thanks.
