Also interested in this info. Perhaps if anyone has figures for Investment banking salaries/bonus (e.g Standard Bank, Renaissance Capital, Dyer & Blair) they could share?

well it depends...salo+bonus? some guys make more than many CEOs.....one guy made 30mio in bonuses alone...bonus range varies but the norm is like 1mio....salos per se arent extra ordinary...guy with 1 yr experience can command about 250k odd depending on skill set...no entry level per se because most dealers dont quite start employment as dealers, most find their way into treasury...dunno if that helps

yep . that helps. its more of an experience type of thing !

Yeah...very slow, they real piss me off. It is like they are forced to work.

dnt just throw statements here . tell us why we should think otherwise . and if your account is at the executive center dnt bother . LOL

If you think they're the slowest, then you've not been to family bank...

I think family is ok. Improving.
Bt oh my, stanchart, especially for small farmers like me, they take loong. Even make faces if u try ask. That bank, should only serve the mighty.
They one day told me to close my acct if i'm unhappy.

Stanchart have no interest in small customers. they have actually simplified the process of closing accounts to get rid of them.

Business-wise it might be a good strategy. Applying the Pareto 80/20 rule.

Socially, it might backfire on their faces and therefore affect their profits negatively.

For which category of staff? management? Clerical? Unskilled?

I know a guy who entered Equity Bank at 800k per month.... then he resigned 6 months later due to poor working conditions.

You are assuming that it was a lowly position... he was one of those people you see pictured under "Executive Management" in the annual report...
