Problems started in late 90s/ early 00s when they:

1. Recalled loans on many businesses;
2. Closed branches;
3. Retrenched staff;
4. Invested deposits in Government Securities;
5. Increased minimum balances for all accounts;
6. Imposed monthly ledger fees on savings accounts;

They chased away retail clients, Small, Micro and Medium Entreprises. The local banks stepped in. When they tried to win back the people they chased away, it was too late.



True dat. I am one of those guys they chased away.

And you are still a boy till today

@Ericsson you are out of order

Very strong share trading activity today,is it because of the usually good dividend?

Barclays seeks to sell three closed branches at Sh65m
https://www.businessdail...83632-md3wvz/index.html

In 2017, the bank had closed Moi Avenue, Haile Selassie, Waiyaki Way, Kawangware, Rahimtulla, Nakummatt Meru and Wundanyi branches. This cut branch network from 96 to 89.

Bamburi, Maragua and Supplies branches are now up for sale.
