Factual inaccuracies and update discussion
editGood day. I am a paid employee at Aprio Communications which is contracted to provide communications services and PR to Barclays Africa Group. Full disclosure: I would like to acknowledge a conflict of interest as this request is made on behalf of Barclays Africa.
There are a number of factual inaccuracies which relate to old reporting figures which, with your help, should now be replaced by the audited figures which were announced at the latest Financial Year End Results presentation on 23 February 2017. These are audited figures and are all available on the Barclays Africa website for further scrutiny - www.barclaysafrica.com.
Please feel free to contact me via the talk page should you wish to discuss any of these edits.
A vast portion of the information in this article is outdated and attributed to Absa bank. As the article refers, Absa is in fact a subsidiary of Barclays Africa (since 2013) however there are still a number references made to Absa Sponsorships, Absa Social Responsibility initiatives, Bank Charges relating to Absa, and a section on Mortgage Loans which relates to Absa. This ignores the broader Barclays Africa group and is therefore somewhat misleading. The photo on the page also shows the Absa building in Johannesburg.
I would very much like to open the discussion as to how to possibly remedy this.e.g. Would it be feasible to create a separate Absa page?
There are a number of updates to this content which we also can suggest - provided the current sections on the page are still appropriate - but this would refer to the latest annual report for the year ended December 2016 (which is still being published). I am cognisant that these suggestions may also require 3rd party referencing as well.
Any suggestions would be most welcome.
I'm happy to answer any questions here. Thanks in advance!
Thom
