According to the story, the Prof stated an investigation into trading trends conducted by the Central Bank had revealed three things
Reason no. 3 was that the positions are largely associated with their group companies overseas. Both KCB and EB only have small subsidiaries in Eastern Africa which would not qualify them in this group. In my view, in addition to SCB & BBK, the other two would most likely be Citi and CFC Stanbic which traditionally also derive a bigger proportion of their income from forex trading as opposed to our big 2 home grown banks.
I stand to be corrected all the same, but just let know the source(s) of your info.

Equity!
Something going with this bank. The other day I read that after Citibank/Stnachart gave up being the bankers for the Linyan investors in Kenya (LAICO, Oil Libya) et al due to sanctions, Equity picked up the business.
