DRC acquisition and entry has gone quiet.
Are they finding challenges or developed cold feet

TMB inside. Additional USD 1.5B in new assets from TMB plus increase of 110 more branches, total branch count across the group to now stand at 462 across EAC


I mixed have feelings about this acquisition. Don't know whether it is just a money grab by insiders, whether the investment makes sense and whether it has been made at a competitive price. Share price is also not excited by the move.



Now they are angling for acquisition in Ethiopia as the entry route.
With that they will have cemented presence in the Eastern Africa region

The representative office in Ethiopia was opened in 2015. Getting full fledged operational presence should be a walk in the park

The representative office has given them an opportunity to scrutinize the market and by now they have already identified the lender they will want to acquire.
They are just waiting for the right time to make the announcement and commence the process

Next year is entry into Ethiopia.
Banking reforms to allow foreign banks to operate in the country are set concluded in Q4 2022.

KCB Bank Kenya has injected over Ksh. 120 billion to support Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) importing fuel as it seeks to consolidate its support to the energy sector.
The Bank has been facilitating oil importation into the country by financing the oil firms under its portfolio that have won business under the Open Tender System (OTS) through the Ministry of Petroleum and Mining.
Under the OTS system, the winning oil marketer imports the fuels on behalf of the other firms using the confirmed allocations; the other oil marketers are
mandated to offtake their volumes upon arrival.
With the government indicating doing away with oil subsidies, the price of fuel in the country is set to surge in the coming months. Therefore, KCB’s contribution towards the stabilization of the prices in the short term will be vital.

Disappointment over lack of interim dividend. All the cash will be spent acquiring the DRC bank. Then right after that they will probably come up with another target for acquisition. These are the new cash cows. Over paying for these acquisitions. Poor corporate governance is the bane of our NSE.

Even at Q3 you can still pay interim dividend just like they did last year.
Be patient even Stanbic and Standard Chartered Bank didn't pay interim dividend
