Their Q3 will humble you. On being the most expensive you are wrong.... COOP has consistently been the cheapest tier 1 lender based on its low cost of funds from the SACCO movement, and I can prove it http://www.the-star.co.k...borrow-personal_c1294170

I have two questions for you educated wazuans. I have my eyes on Housing Finance and KCB. How will this law affect profitability of KCB? How will this law affect the profitability of Housing Finance? I really need some answers to those two questions to inform my decision.

New law decreases the amount of money they make per customer they lent above 14% and they can overcome this by increasing their loan volumes,get cheaper funding,increase non-interest income, reduce costs or decreasing their NPLs.
From my observation am seeing more advertisements by KCB asking people to open accounts with them, seems they want cheaper funding first through current accounts.

Q3 numbers are irrelevant, the law passed on 14 September. Lets wait for Q1 2017...it will be murder!

KCB just sms'ed me about getting Mpesa loans at 0.5% interest for amounts between 50,000 and 500,000.

This 0.5% is per what? And what are the fixed charges?
