With the Kenyan institution headquartered in Mauritius, businessdaily also understands that the tie-up may result in the foreign investors getting a 45 percent stake in Royal Bank. Mzwimbi said the east African bank was big in the small-to-medium enterprise market (SMEs) — a model they would want to grow and replicate in Zimbabwe. “They are a huge player in the SMEs market and with Royal Bank’s 14 branches, we are better placed to expand that service,” he said.

Transcentury has a holding company or something like that in Mauritius... I&M Bank has a subsidiary in Mauritius too... Greedy when others are fearful.

I&M HQs are in Kenya but they have a sub in Maur. Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.
