@innairobi i think u meant through the courts


CBK as supervisor of all commercial banks can surely do an impromptu audit and demand the accounts in the process?

I believe the two key statutory ratios being adverse is a result of significant growth in loans and deposits coupled with delays in the recapitalization by govt/nssf via the rights issue. How is that a bad thing?

Did anyone catch their defence on citizen news night? How was it??

Its very easy for a bank to forecast whether it will run short of capital or liquidity, so it might be the case that the ceo has no idea how to run a bank or he is too busy facilitating his religious community.
Interestingly the ceo sets his won bonus and of course wages have tripled since he came on board.

You employ a non-shareholding ceo at your own considerable risk.

Was the media right in writing this article knowing very well how sensitive banking is?


Hii ni brown envelope journalism

clearly this story is one sided and was being driven by people who do not like Munir Hassan at the Helm...


That story and the one on HF judgment makes you wonder on the gutter motives


Media on the most part are only interested in selling papers (sensational headlines and misquoting people). i guess one of the reasons there is friction with jubilee. Even though there may be some element of truth to what they report they over dramatize to make it more serious than it actually is. People with heavy pockets should start suing them when they publish false no evidence stories.

National Bank of Kenya (NBK) has confirmed that the Treasury wants it to merge with other State-owned lenders, sending a strong signal that the privatisation bid that has stalled for over seven years could delay even more....

Been thinking about this consolidation and what opportunities can come up. Apart from NBK, most of the potentials are unlisted. Do our regulations allow for reverse listings? Let's see those H1s.

OK. Thanks. Was also recalling a reverse listing by a certain bank of a furniture & clothing retailer. That made think of the Jamii Bora, Uchumi acquisition.

Well, if it was any other 'private' bank e.g. Barclays, I&M, NIC, StanChart... CBK would have come down on them like a ton of bricks. No sympathy for them unlike NBK.

BTW, the breaching of the Capital Ratios is for the UNAUDITED results. I wonder how bad the ratios would be if the accounts were AUDITED.

Huh? Why would NBK not provide the accounts to Treasury which owns a huge chunk of NBK. As is NBK publishes the results quarterly so those for 1Q should be available.

Not the financials. Its specific bank accounts. Insider loans if I read well. NSSF and GoK are not seeing eye to eye on the matter so GoK's stake of I think some 20-somthing percent cant do much.

LOL GoK can have 0% stake but they can do a lot, lesson here is never fight the government of the day,

@Ericsson @Mart_ Should guarantee* foot traffic? The shops need a thorough makeover. Would really like to see how they manage the two brands in one.
