Post-curatorship recovery and execution stabilisation
Boundary note
This appendix maps evidence to bounded claims. AB003 evidences MyWORLD accounts opened, not active use. AB086 evidences learning readiness, not adoption. AB108 evidences assessment architecture, not assessment results. AB137 and AB138 support longitudinal and governance-facing insight, not IPO occurrence, external market validation, financial audit, price sensitivity or formal Board approval. The Compact evidence supports codification, public obligation, auditability and governance visibility; formal enforcement or role consequence is not claimed unless supported by a specific governance consequence record.

Evidence Asset List and Claim Mapping, Chapter 4, African Bank Public Work
This appendix maps the selected AB-coded evidence assets that support the formal Chapter 4 claims listed in Appendix C. It is an evidential route map, not a reproduction of the full archive. Each row identifies the asset, the evidential function it performs, the Appendix C claim or claims it supports, and where it is used in Chapter 4.
The table follows the evidential movement of Chapter 4 rather than the archive sequence. This differs from Appendix B only in evidential shape. Chapter 3 maps a more discrete transformation architecture, while Chapter 4 maps a longitudinal, governance-facing chain from post-curatorship stabilisation through culture integration, Leadership Compact codification, public declaration, embodied absorption, repeat measurement, development response and IPO-facing governance translation.
Only assets that perform necessary work are included. Where several materials perform similar evidential work, they are clustered to avoid duplication. Audio-visual and embodied assets are included where their form is part of the evidence, for example where they show declaration, ritual, witnessing or absorption. Public, regulatory and scholarly sources remain in the Chapter 4 footnotes and references and are not repeated here.
