Johannesburg - Shares of Capitec Bank surge more than 4 percent after the mass-market lender flags that earnings for the year to end-February would rise by between 32 and 36 percent.

Capitec reported a 50 percent surge in diluted headline earnings per share to 1,099 cents in the year to end-February 2012, lifted by strong demand for loans.

Shares are up 4.35 percent at 193.99 rand. - Reuters
