It is also affecting UG banks as they too see a spike in NPL. Ugandan banks suffer effects of bad loans - http://www.theeastafrica...-/12ldogjz/-/index.html
Quote:Ugandan banks are facing uncertainty this year as operational costs rise amid a backlash of surging bad loans.
Whereas the banks posted a rise in profits in 2012 amid tough economic conditions, massive growth in costs incurred on bad loans and weaker performance in new branches threatened to ruin the party, analysts said.
A mixed short term outlook has created uncertainty over this year’s forecast with analysts projecting a rise in bad loans. $15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

The NPL escalation rate is indeed worrisome. However if the escalation rate is contained and recoveries made, all will be well coz the Gross NPL/Loan ratio are currently at tolerable level {Q1 2013, Equity, 5.3%;KCB, 7.61%}

CBK, in 2012 Bank supervision report has given the following rating guideline on NPL ratio (asset quality)
Strong; 0-5% Satisfactory; 5.1%-10.0% Fair; 10.1%-15.0% Marginal; 15.1%-20.0% Unsatisfactory; Over 20%
At least for now our banks asset quality are strong to satisfactory.

The chap however failed to point that loans are at all time high levels and therefore Gross NPL/Loans ratio is significantly lower than it was the five years ago

If CBK's criteria [& audit process] captures accurate data. Many banks [including European & US banks] were 'healthy' until they needed to be bailed out. As Warren Buffett aptly put it: When the tide goes out, is when we find out who has been swimming naked. Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

I see KE story being different from that of those you have mentioned. KE economy is in growth mode and will be in it for a long time. Imagine how it will be when growth rates hit >10% putting in mind that banking sector tend to benefit more than other sectors in such environment. Enjoy the wave mate, the wave is here to stay for a very long time
