  2. The classification of unresolved transactions as debit balances in the statement of financial position, resulting in an increase in operating profit and the payment of higher taxes than projected;
  3. The IT operations of the bank had weak controls such that it was possible for some staff to over-ride some of them;
  4. The net current assets have continued to fall and, in the preceding year, have fallen below industry average despite an increase in gross earnings.
