i think both interest and non interest income was the major contributor tto the bottom line.which means the business is just fine.
How did the Tanzania part did

As long as the retained earnings are properly reinvested, it is an advantage for a long term investor.

Did you know Berkshire Hathaway does not pay dividends? why? Mainly because buffet doesn't want shareholders net worth cut by double taxation - the income tax paid by the company and the tax (withholding tax) on the shareholders dividends.

Nope coz it is growing!

Look at KCB... they paid heavy dividends (large Dividend Payout) then came back for more cash thru Rights! Idiots...

DTBK is saving shareholders cash by 'retaining' more cash instead of more Rights Issues...

Rights Issues make printers, CMA, NSE, brokers, lawyers, etc more money... It is cheaper to 'retain' 1bn by not paying a hefty dividend than raising it thru a Rights Issue...

Anyone on live data to kindly post for me the Asks and Bids for DTB. Is it worthy buying at 110 which translates to almost 13% after the 1H Announcement for short time speculation before the excitement is ova. Got some 250K floating in my CDS after off loading Centum on friday! Wat your take wazuans.

@underweight - Bids at 110/- No Offers...

I bid 110 yesterday and still didnt get them!!!...my broker is a crook! Ill wait till it cools down and "market players" loose interest in it.

Good suggestion. often there is very little interest in DTB and you could easily grab a few from a desperate seller.

I can assure all kenyan brokers are heavily steeped in crookery! But some are more inclined than others.

and turnover for that counter 4,262,800 with 23 deals done today

Who do u use to trade online? I'm very curious.
