Someone mentioned that earlier. Where is that info from? I am surprised that DTB hasn't taken that exposure as a NPL. Or do they recover the money/loan from money uploaded by customers onto the Nakumatt card?
DTB lends Nakumatt "working capital" or pays suppliers.
Customer loads money onto the Nakumatt card.
Customer uses the card to pay for purchases.
DTB recovers the "loan" from what Nakumatt receives as payment.
If the above is true then the risk is low UNLESS the sales/purchases using the Nakumatt card are lower than the working capital loan.
Sounds like creative accounting...I didnt see them take Nakumatt on NPL in 2016 numbers...lets see how they cook this one. With PKF as auditors, they may hide it again.
How would you know If they factored in Nakumatt unless they decided to explicitly say so?
You don't have to be a genius to see a 5B+ bad debt....
Cmon. How would you know when it's lumped up with other bad loans?
N you haven't provided the link to the article?
Because Nakumatt went bad in 2016...it wasnt there in 2015. Anyways, lets wait and see how they hide that one...
I'd actually be more worried about other banks that lent Nakumatt money. N Nakumatt was already 90 days into arrears by 2016, presumably.
Regardless, your statements might be a wee factual. With the multiple banks that lent Nakumatt money, I'd bet on DTB to fare better than the rest.
