These are pre-rate cap stats. Should be worse for October.

Of course this law was ill advised. The common guy on the streets was happy about it(what do they ay about ignorance and bliss) but the so called benefits pale in comparison to the straits it causes the economy.

Akin to giving a baby a knife to make them stop crying for it - the danger is more dire!

We tried to discuss these issues and the mob could not hear any of it. Emotions were the order of the day.

Even now when the effects have started being obvious, the lynch mob doesn't want to hear any logic! Emotions and matusi abound!!
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

We are slowly moving towards reversing this retarded law.

As I have been saying, was always going to happen. The longest UK can hold is up to slightly after the elections. Because the signing was politically motivated, he might just let the economy go to the dogs till after the election - what a high price for Kenyans to pay for some people to get votes!!

But this law doesn't see December 2017. Worst case scenario!!!

UK can't unilaterally void the law. An MP has to introduce a motion to repeal it or scrap it...I will want to see that usually heavily indebted house vote to let banks swing their huge loans back to the mid-twenties interest rate mark, for curiosity's sake.

Let me be counted among the pro rate cap hoi poloi. I still dont understand why rate cap is bad for business. The sooner banks get over their pity party , double down and get to work lending to those who deserve loans, the better it will be for all of us. No need having registered shylocks masquerading as banks. By June 2017, they will have seen the light and done away with their credit crunch games.

By the way, can someone explain to me slowly what interest rates have to do with weakening kenya shs against the dollar. What is the relationship.

Capital gains tax scenario,it destroyed the market big time before they came to their senses,on banks iam ok with rate cap because i think kenyan banks were making exorbitant profits,i will buy bank stocks next year when this law bites to the core
