WINDHOEK Oct 30 (Reuters) – Barclays Plc has
temporarily suspended its bid for a stake in Namibia’s Bank
Windhoek until it completes a process to combine its African
businesses with those of Absa Group, Barclays said on
Tuesday.
The British bank announced in August it would be combining
its interests in Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda,
Zambia and Indian Ocean states with Absa, South Africa’s
third-largest lender.
