Luckily this company/corporation didn't invest in the chase and imperial bank corporate bonds.
Their biggest chunk of corporate bonds is in the NIC bank and Centum


Huge investments in GOK securities.

Indeed, the state holds too much of corporate assets. If GOK defaults...

Jadiah Mwarania back with a bang;

Kenya Reinsurance Corporation (Kenya Re) says it will boost its holdings of government securities as it chases guaranteed returns in an uncertain economy.
The Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) listed re-insurer made little change in its investment mix portfolio in the first half of the year, where government securities comprised 47 per cent on its investment book — and 39 per cent of total assets — in the half year period ended June 30 this year.
“Our strategy is to focus on real time diversification to government securities with competitive coupons,” said chief executive Jadiah Mwarania (pictured) on Friday.
“We will also step up market intelligence on quoted equity instruments for realisation of capital gains besides adopting strategic exposure to companies with high dividend pay-out,

Laffer curve-increasing taxes rates beyond a certain point is counter-productive for raising further tax revenue. Moodys downgraded the major banks for being too invested in GoK securities. Too much faith in GoK when it couldn't raise anything to share with counties in July

Kenya Reinsurance Corporation (Kenya Re), which offers cover to more than 160 insurance companies spread out in over 45 countries in Africa, Middle East and Asia says it is eyeing new markets across the globe to boost income in the face of stiffening competition both locally and abroad.
Chief executive officer Jadiah Mwarania said the NSE-listed re-insurer is looking to open regional offices in new markets besides expanding the company's line of insurance products where it already operates.
Mr Mwarania noted that several countries have domesticated their reinsurance markets or set up State-owned national reinsurance companies that are eating into its business.
“When they form these national reinsurers it means they get compulsory cessions which reduces the volume of business available for foreign reinsurers.”
Countries that have done this include Uganda, Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, Ghana, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Vietnam among others.
“We will counter this by setting up regional offices in response to domestication which will help us become more competitive,” said Mr Mwarania at a Friday press briefing shortly after announcing the company’s results. “We are also pursuing new reinsurance markets such as northern Africa, Middle East and Asia.”

Good counter strategy.
Since they have penetrated africa,middle east and asia,they could also try europe and america.
