As is banks were making too much in FX. They need to work on volumes and products not spreads. The uptick in FDI, if any, should help banks make more from FX.

Wah!!! This is very serious! You mean after the value of assests held by banks grew by a mere 17.6% in 2023, in 2024 it dropped by a massive 1.6%!!?? And what's even more horrifying, there is a point before the 6!!!

People really need to avoid over exposure to the growing banks profitability and dividends!!!
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

That's FX.
KES/USD from 130 to 160 hence the gains in (FX) assets in KES terms.

Check the performance of Banks in the biggest economies. Start with the US!

I don't understand why people imagine Banks owe them free/cheap money!!! Based on what!!??

If you think you have a good thing going, skip the banks and go directly to investors/venture capitalists!! They should jump at the opportunity if your product is as good as you imagine it is!!!
