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.

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%}

SBU's 2012 provisions were super sized. Lucky the USE's has limited action. However, the div is quite generous.

Why are you surprised?
How many businesses are making 25% profit other than banks? Charging loans at 25% is begging for default.

BBI will solve it

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.

High interest rates and economic shocks linked to the March 4 General Election have rendered thousands of borrowers unable to service bank debts, pushing the volume of bad loans in Kenya to a five-year high (Kshs 70B as at March).

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.

The tide always goes out at some point. WB knows this. Look at the GFC when once "impregnable" banks/financial firms went to him looking not just for cash but for 'validation' including Goldman Sachs, BofA & GE...

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
