From what I gather 11% of profits came from SS for KCB. For discussion purposes, if the SS profit in 2014 is halved then the hurt will be in the EPS. Applying a PER to the EPS means the price MAY [not will] fall. KCB has been playing fast & loose with NPL exposure. Look at the 3Q results with a HUGE net exposure to NPLs. This will grow with SS problems if they have lent to entities with assets [cars, trucks] stuck in SS.

I think NIC, DTB & I&M are better bets with growth in more stable but less profitable countries like Rwanda & Tanzania.

Who is going to deposit cash into KCB (SS) at this time? If anything, folks will go to take their cash out. During a war or panic, cash is 'valuable' in hand not in a bank account!

Longer Term: I expect SS to calm down & that's the time I will look at KCB [hoping the price falls substantially]

Looks KCB will take abit of a hit after all

http://www.thepeople.co....d-south-sudan-conflict/

Especially if the business wasnt insured! I presume they were the only Kenya bank operating in Bentiu, so a US$500,000 loss in that branch alone!

We wait to see how it will be reflected in their books - whether end year 2013, or q1 2014 books

i highly doubt they werent insured. ofcos they knew they were entering in a risky country to do business. nevertheless, business was disrupted and it will definitely be reflected in their books

It is good to see prices falling further. I am waiting for a comfy entry level in some stocks I missed out on.

Bad loans jump to Sh80bn over late pay to contractors - NPLs are going to grow even further with the current CBK rules. And KCB is one of the larger lenders in the government construction business.
