12 The South African economy continues to face significant macro-economic pressure from falling commodity prices, further devaluation of the rand and sovereign
rating concerns. This is exacerbated by the local electricity challenges which are negatively impacting meaningful economic growth.
Sasfin Holdings Group Limited and Sasfin Bank Limited continue to maintain their strong capital and liquidity positions. Total Capital Adequacy, Tier 1 Capital
Adequacy, Leverage and Liquidity coverage ratios significantly exceed the minimum regulatory requirements, in full compliance with Basel III.
