[quote=lochaz-index]A banking crisis is coming to KE, not even the best efforts by the governor will avert it. Illiquidity is any bank's worst nightmare. If all the means of liquidity provision are failing then there can only be one eventuality...we are yet to see the worst from the banking sector followed by a consolidation thereafter.

It would appear Mr market is not entirely convinced with some of the banks' performances.

Kcb at the current price of 32 has a trailing PER of about 4.6! That is some thorough beating. Whatever is getting discounted must be huge.

Save for Nbk (for obvious reasons) is there any other bank trading at such a multiple? If it slides any further it will get to par level versus its book value.

Still not convinced by their rescheduling of the rights issue and sudden about turn on Chase bank(after a less than transparent stint with Imperial bank). Plus their ratios and provisions are not exactly awe-inspiring.

Nic and Stanbic have the ignominy of trading at a discount to NAV - the position previously held by Nbk.

Despite all the above, banks are still churning out impressive numbers quarter after quarter. Something has to give here. This show is yet to come to an end.

I see we have another fan questioning the kcb spectacular nosedive. Welcome to the bandwagon which also has vvs, sparkly, myself and I think two more fans.

What I like about this banking sector nosedive is that it'll reorganize itself to be more robust after this shaving episode. That means the return of the bulls will have sizable energy in equal measure to send bank stocks on a dizzy rally - 200% at least!!

That will happen only if two things come to pass.. One, NPL reduction. Two, liquidity management..

and third, capping of interest rate never sees the light of the day. many banks will find it more difficult to reign on cost after a enjoying lucrative lending rates. that law will be a socker.

I asked here who is the chairman of KCB and no one understood my question. What are his qualifications? Was his appointment by merit or political, given elections are around the corner and somebody might be looking for Eazzyloansmile .
Therein lies the answers to Mr.Market's spanking of this stockSad

I had the opportunity to go through Kcb's Q1 results...needless to say I was not impressed (I posted my thoughts here but I can't remember which thread) and neither has been Mr market so far.

They have been pushing the envelope for quite a while especially on NPL's and this continues to haunt them after HY numbers. A worsening loan book and collaterals is a bad mix.

The main threat however lies in a liquidity squeeze. If banks are not able to meet near term withdrawal demands and there is no effective liquidity provision mechanism, this is a ticking time bomb. Another bank collapse will not be taken kindly by the masses...a cascade of bank runs and more collapses.

@lochaz-index right on the money with your arguments. further the business segment has adopted a wait and see for the interest rate movement plus 2017 approaches, terrible combination for lenders

KCB is too big to fail meaning Njoroge will open the flood-gates for KCB. Any withdrawal will be met courtesy of CBK. That doesn't mean the brand and Balance Sheet will not be damaged.

If there is a run on KCB which will be met by CBK pumping in liquidity... the brand will suffer. As is, I think KCB's customer service is crap but many parastatals use it as do their suppliers.

A run on simba? Who has even predicted that?
