I left SBG for the same reason. Leaving them is even more painful. It now takes a month for them to sign your transfer forms!
Y that's too long.

KCB Capital
Faida investment bank
I went through a painful transfer from Faida Investment Bank a few years ago.
I went through a similar experience transferring my portfolio to Suntra.Useless Suntra took 5 months to transfer the portfolio (a process that takes one week).During that 5 months I could not trade my stocks and suffered losses as I was unable to sell my stocks at my price and time.I demanded from Suntra a refund for these losses they refused.I filed a complaint to both CMA and NSE and they chose to do nothing about it
CMA is useless.
I have an account I have been transferring from SBG securities from December last years. Nowadays the excuse is Corona. Bure kabisa, they make customers be at their mercy. This is an idle portfolio, I can imagine the active account.
SBG Securities now pretending not to receive withdrawal requests. There is a Broker's crisis coming up like the 2008-2009 crisis. A number of brokers will go bankrupt. If you have cash in your brokerage accounts, withdraw or buy shares!
Stock brokers that have gone under (year of collapse)
Francis Thuo and Partners(2007); Nyaga Stockbrokers(2008);Discount Securities(2009) ; Ngenye Kariuki and Company (2010).
The Investor Protection Fund used to give a maximum payout of KSh. 50k per investor as compensation (I don't know whether the figure has been revised up since).
Do the stockbrokers segregate client funds from their own funds so that in case of collapse the clients money is safe?
