Co-op Bank chief executive Gideon Muriuki bought an additional 6.1 million shares in CIC Insurance Group
in the year ended December, becoming the latest prominent member in the sacco sector to invest more in the company.
The insurer’s latest annual report shows that Mr Muriuki held 137.8 million shares equivalent to a 5.3 percent stake in the review period.
This was up from 131.7 million shares he held in the prior year.
CIC’s chairman Nelson Kuria, who previously led the company as the chief executive, also bought an additional one million shares in the Nairobi Securities Exchange-listed firm last year.
His holdings rose to 15.3 million shares from 14.2 million shares but the stake remained unchanged at 0.6 percent.
CIC’s current chief executive Patrick Nyaga holds 12.1 million shares in the company equivalent to a 0.5 percent stake. He bought most of the shares soon after he was appointed CEO in June 2020.
