Banks better pay attention to their subsidiaries where there are no caps. I could be wrong but I think I&M, KCB, Equity & COOP are also present beyond Kenya The ex-Kenya operations for these 3 are less than 20% of their total business. Kenya remains "king" for these banks. That said, Equity and I&M have been increasing their ex-Kenya presence. Equity - Procredit in DRC has replaced South Sudan I&M - BankOne in Mauritius has been growing in importance Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

Equity - Procredit in DRC has replaced South Sudan I&M - BankOne in Mauritius has been growing in importance It would take a miracle for a Kenyan bank to be the largest bank in a foreign country without adequate government holding by the foreign state.. Meanwhile, sell all bank stocks apart from COOP & KCB, if you have to hold HF 30,000 ABP 3.49; KQ 414,100 ABP 7.92; MTN 23,800 ABP 6.45

Now look http://www.businessdaily...27740-pjse5m/index.html[/quote] “Today’s rating action is driven primarily by a potential weakening of the Kenyan government’s credit profile, in particular in the country’s fiscal strength and liquidity risk, as captured by Moody’s recent decision to place Kenya’s B1 government ratings on review for downgrade,” agency said in a statement.

What does all this mean? I believe there is no direct effect on day to day operations For investors as a whole, returns decrease as motion increases ~ WB
