If you were earning 300K 15years ago i.e Yr.1999 you will end up with 1.5*15*300K-500K=6.7M-11.2M

I can assure you these guys have loans that are more than that sendoff amount (think mortgages,car & Sacco loans).Some invested while others bought BMWs & moved to rent in more upmarket areas. It cannot be easy.

I know one from KCB who got 10M, paid 3M Sacco loan & 5M mortgage.He was left with 2M. He is an old ex-banker,with 2 kids still in school.It would take quite sometime to get another job at that age.
Formally employed people often live their employers' dream & forget about their own.

Glad I quit this institution early.I have become wiser and done more in one year than the time I spent working for them.However,generally this is one bank that is very stable due to the huge capital base available to it from Saccos.If they adopted an aggressive approach like that of Equity,they will be very far.That needs a visionary and I am afraid the current captain;with all due respect ought to relinquish his seat to some new blood.

Rem a 40% loan offset. I there are those who have invested wisely and put their families in position. Your failure to utilize your salry well while on employment should not be an excuse and a burden to the employer. Live your level...if you didn't inherit anything then begin with basics.ukijifanya kutuonyesha usonko shauri yako. Ref retrenchment,those who re-org well an settled on whatever little are alive and doing well,those who complained & blamed gvt walikufa or live miserably. On your first salary just begin planning for retire/retrench/sacking/resign....compare such a send off package how many kenyans get such????very few. Usipojipanga mwenyewe utapangwa na dunia.

Tell them @Boris.

I even started a thread on the same some time back.

Here is the Link: Take your income as A SEED not AS FRUITS

Luckily enough most wazuans know this but we need to preach this gospel to our workmates, relatives, neighbours, friends etc. Anyone who means anything to you and is not following this simple logic.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

What were they doing in those 15 years that they can't stand on their own. If they can't then they were just dead weight employees. Employment is modern day slavery


@mkonomtupu, you are spot on here. A friend working at coop with some serious side hustles had applied to be included in the list. He tells me there were about 40 such applicants. They were all declined.

Reason, the fact that a young guy in his late 30s or early 40s wants to quit employment tells your boss something. You are confident about yourself, you are self-driven and you definitely know you have valuable skills that you can monetize elsewhere. Its no coincidence that this group also happens to be the most productive. They work for the bank.

The rest are the dead weight who are 'employed' at the bank waiting for salo at the end of the month.

Fire employees but increase CSR? Same Co-op is hiring Mackinsey to reduce costs. If fees per year per student is 100k in a national school and 50k in an extra county school then the cost will be at least 50m per year.

@Boris no need to tie your boxers in a knot. Your bank can apply all its revenues to CSR for all we care but a serious investor must ask how an increase in CSR is mentioned in the same breath with restructuring.

The word here is "SOCIAL" and does not need to be associated with Profits. It means giving back to the community as in alms.
All-in-all in cooperative I m entitled to a dividend of 50cts come rain or sun at 19 or at ahigh of 25Kes.
Ofcourse it will rise back to that price this February.
Coop like Equity has opened several branches to serve the growing customer base especially in Agric and Industrial Kenya.
Have they entered Ethiopia market Yet?

Co-operative bank of Kenya has entered the cashless fare platform, becoming the latest lender to provide the platform as it targets to grow its non-funded income.
Dubbed M-Nauli, co-operative bank said it will ride on its close association with the country’s Sacco movement to win over Matatu saccos.
“We tapped into our experience with SACCOs when developing our M-Nauli system to ensure that the product effectively works for the Matatu Owners and as well as for customers." Managing Director Gideon Muriuki said during the launch.
smile smile Can I recharge my card at any Co-op ATM?
Should there be an option of recharge either through an account or direct money where ATM accepts money and loads it into the M-Nauli?

Still the people are carrying cash nd conductors never say they have the machine to "TAP"!

The BEST form of CSR for a firm is to produce/offer a good product at a good price. The rest is irrelevant. CSR should be left to the INDIVIDUAL shareholders. I think it was Warren Buffett who said that.

BTW, foreigners are not allowed to get into banking/finance in Ethiopia.

@vvs yours is better,apple to apple. On other side "product" is relative. Assuming the Memba way it could yeild for them in few yrs time. the beneficiaries could work at lower pay in future,their siblings/dependants accts to.be in coop in order to continue enjoying benefits,the monies are channelled to instituitions through coop.

When I bought Coop at IPO, i had eyes that could see it being one of the strongest banks in Kenya. It is still and its doing fine.It has diversified quite well and Muriuki is becoming a global identity.With the broom (Mackinsey) having done its work and various outlets and agents onsite Coop is the best.Co-op is in real estate as a lender and a nominee. Its true Co-op owns many assets and may in future control a larhe chunk of Kenyan towers and peri-urban estates.
This FY14 has a message for Co-op investors. I can foretell that!
