Too many special AGMs from CiC within a short period of time! Since CiC motto is 'we keep our word', they should announce the results, refund our money if we oversubscribed and stop the idea of trying to dilute the shares. We can buy the few shares over the counter as before. This is the only way we will a Co-op bank equivalent when they list.

@PKoli: That is what worries me about CIC. They seem to think all problems are solved via AGMs! The wazees are getting greedy now. I understand they were extremely skeptical about the issue and had projected less than 80% subscription for the rights issue. I still wonder why a company with such hefty ambitions has not appointed a PRO leaving the Company Secretary to handle publicity!

@Sasha,
I hope with Co-op buying a huge chunk of the shares, we will finally have some robust leadership being injected in CiC. Nelson Kuria has done a good job, he requires the board team that can manage a modern dynamic insurance company.

With over the counter buying, how do buyers and sellers come to an agreement. Are they likely to split the cic shares on listing to the nse? The investor's chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself

...when you visit brokers' offices or wherever they are sold or bought from you will find sell orders at certain prices placed by sellers...alternatvely sellers will find buy orders placed at certain prices just like NSE,.... except for the automation at NSE.
For the spliting...isn't it not too early to ask?

@All, Which brokers offices can I use to check on the sell orders if I'm interested in buying?How will I keep track of the shares such that they are not sold without my consent? Who has an idea of the average going rate currently over the counter?I need to buy some more. Formally employed people often live their employers' dream & forget about their own.

@birdman, wil respond to your second query, all OTC shares are in forms of Share Certificates so you will need to personally surrender the same if you wish to sell........

Before the rights issue, the share was going for KES 38. The share was KES 27 rights price. I guess, it will be slightly over KES 30 when they start trading. I will offer mine at no less than KES 50 a piece.

I started buying CIC during their first private placement. I have been adding slowly and so I have to reap handsomely from my patience. Whereas 50 bob looks high, going forward, we might be heading to KES 100 factoring in the rights shares.

Was there a timeline on when to declare the results of the rights issue????? The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.

CIC PBT up 117% from Sh277m to Sh605m.
PAT up from Sh236 millionSh486 million."
If we take Total Income to mean PAT, that is impressive growth. Assuming about 50m shares, that is an EPS of about 9.72shs. At the Rights price of Sh.27, then we have a P/E ratio of 2.78.
Even better, they will be looking to list in 2012.
I like this share.
I have been looking for the results in the newspaper today, couldnt see them, anyone with a link to the actual results (not what nation said about them)..

Co-op Bank buys CIC Insurance stake on the cheap http://www.businessdaily...-/14ctel8z/-/index.html
The revelation is set re-ignite debate among the firm’s shareholders who had argued that the bank had received preferential treatment while negotiating the deal to acquire the additional shares. Co-operative bank, it turns out, cut itself a remarkably good deal by buying a share at Sh22.50 yet the insurance firm had been freshly valued at Sh35 GOD BLESS YOUR LIFE

I do not regret having jumped in earlier on and it looks I will stay in a little longer. I do not think they have published results, or have audited results yet.

They will simply use Coop bank's expansive branch network to sell their products. Given that Coop is planning for expansion outside the country, this will serve CIC very well. As a shareholder of CIC, I have nothing to complain about the deal.
