CFC STANBIC @85-100 ranges is ok! Room for growth of business and capital gains still exist!

The two banks are poised to take most of the banking for county business. KCB has taken over a loan advanced to Nairobi County by Member thereby securing a deal with Nairobi county. Member has on the other hand taken over Nyeri county!

And the rush for County money is officially on the table.

Clearly Equity din’t want to retain the Non Performing Loan given that they refused to sit down with City Hall to renegotiate the facility. KCB, with its bad debt history, may have just bagged another bad one and at a very concessional rate of 13% against the 18.5% charged by Equity Bank. Shrewd Equity have gotten rid of the problematic account and can now place the funds in a safe 10 year T-Bond at 12% or lend to mwananchi and corporates at 20%-18%.

I think member should have been more innovative here. The issue is not the loan but collecting the revenue for the county may mean very good business..I am thinking if i collect the revenue and get paid by the country a commission meanwhile for the period the money seats in my bank I lend it even if it is overnight, that would mean I am earning twice on free capital..KCB strategy team congrats.

I think @mwekezaji has nailed it. Equity has better things to do than be held hostage by bad debtors. I am not sure what portion of the Loan to CCN has been NPL'd but Equity [in 2Q 2014] can write-back the late or unpaid interest and any provisions made.

KCB may make fees, etc from the CCN deal but it comes with headaches as well. And nothing stops Equity for fighting for other (more) profitable business from CCN.

@streetwise, history has shown us which of the 2 is more innovative and creative. There is more than meets the eye in this deal for Equity to let it go. The smart brains at Equity have done all that cost benefit analysis.

Every 2 years, a scandal or major bad debt haunts KCB. In 2014, it was the HUGE Bad Debt provision KCB tried to hide.

In 2016, I expect the CCN loan (if not something else) to bite them.

There is no much excitement in the Equity counter despite the upcoming closure of its books..
