The new age building dubbed 1 Park Avenue, located near City Park, will be part of the real estate investment portfolio of the bank’s property arm I&M Realty.

I&M expects to occupy 2 and a half floors of the seven-floor complex in a shift that will see 15 percent of the lender’s staff moving there, representing about 125 people.
There are only two emotions in the stock market, fear and hope. The problem is, you hope when you should fear and fear when you should hope

Only 7 floors? Seems a waste given the land cost is fixed.
Unless the design allows for further vertical expansion in the future.

IMHO, probably poor ROI on owning the building vs leasing it. Office space is available all over the place.

Or it could be a vanity project.

Vanity perhaps. However I think the building is strategically located and may do better than other commercial buildings at attracting tenants. Plus by the time they set all this in motion it was years ago when property was still booming.

Just 7 floors seems a vanity project. The much older Kenyatta Ave building is much taller.
There's no mention of the cost of the property but I wonder that the ROI is given 25-year T-Bonds pay 12.6% tax-free.

Let's say it cost them KES 1.5bn including the land that's an opportunity cost 190mn/year (before rent from other tenants).

I don't see vanity more of self-actualization. Nairobi Asian community is also at this stage of self-actualization. You can see it from the ongoing densification of parklands and westlands into a more mixed use area. The ongoing road works like Ring road parklands into westlands means they don't need to come to CBD or upperhill. It's more strategic to be located in that area to serve it's major clientele.

Self-what?

Equity - Upper Hill. Nowhere close to its roots.
KCB - Upper Hill
NBK - CBD
BBK/Absa - Westlands
SCBK - Westlands
Stanbic - Westlands
ABC - Westlands
Prime - Kileleshwa/Westlands
Victoria -Upper Hill (or is it Two Rivers?)
Family - ?
CBA - CBD (or Westlands?)

The directors should self-whatever on their own dime not on the shareholders dime.

Ngai!

I was just talking of the ROI on an example of a 1.5bn (500mn/acre + 1bn construction) building.
Regardless of where it is, I was talking of the economics of it.
Whether I&M has their HQ in Parklands, Westlands, CBD, Upper Hill or Konza, I find the "opportunity" cost very high if they own it.

I believe Equity leases most of their space including the HQ in Upper Hill.

In some spots, given they lease the space, they have reduced the footprint as Equity pushes the digital and agency channels.

The opportunity cost is very high owning it,but at the back of your head know there is some influential person benefitting/being rewarded.
