DISCLAIMER
This document contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and Section 27A of the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended with respect to certain
of the plans, current goals and expectations of Absa Group Limited (Absa) relating to its future financial condition and
performance. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or
current facts. Forward-looking statements sometimes use words such as "aim", "anticipate", "target", "expect", "estimate",
"intend", "plan", "objective", "believe", or other words of similar meaning. Examples of forward-looking statements include,
among others, statements regarding Absa's future financial position, income growth, impairment charges, business
strategy, projected levels of growth in the banking and financial markets, projected costs, estimates of capital
expenditures, and plans and objectives for future operation.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and
circumstances including, but not limited to, the further development of standards and interpretations under International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) applicable to past, current and future periods, evolving practices with regard to the
interpretation and application of standards under IFRS and pending tax elections with regard to certain subsidiaries, as
well as South African domestic and global economic and business conditions, market related risks such as changes in
interest rates and exchange rates, the policies and actions of government and regulatory authorities, changes in
legislation, the outcome of pending and future litigation, the impact of competition, and Absa's ability to increase earnings
per share from acquisitions, which may be affected, among other things, by the ability to realise expected synergies,
integrate businesses, and costs associated with the acquisition and integration - a number of which factors are beyond
Absa's control. As a result, Absa's actual future results may differ materially from the plans, goals, and expectations set
forth in Absa's forward-looking statements.
Any forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of Absa speak only as of the date they are made. Absa does not
undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect any changes in its expectations with regard thereto or any
changes in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. The reader should, however,
consult any additional disclosures that Absa has made or may make in documents it has filed or may file with South
African regulatory authorities including its most recent annual report.
