$1mn for 0.55% is negligible in the grand scheme... Unless, it is a small bite to taste the cake before buying a larger piece.

This counter needs rebasing to sort out it's extremely low share price appreciation.
All insurance counters have rallied apart from it.

When Kenya Re wakes up, the move will be very sharp to the thirties... Ngoja tu

If it is extended. Why should it be extended? What about EAC rules? Or PTA rules?

IMO Kenya Re has demonstrated that they can do without the Compulsory Re-insurance.

I do not know if there are EAC or PTA/COMESA rules about 'Compulsory Insurance' but just as there are limits to 'sugar safeguards' there may be rules that don't allow protection for Re-insurers. Again, I was asking a question.

The 60% GoK holding may be the millstone if KenRe needs GoK permission to expand into other areas of investment or expansion due to the slow approvals reminiscent of how government works.

That said... there IS a discount on KenRe on many metrics including P/B and PER. And @VVS likes discounts. And Warren Buffett.

@sparkly, how has kenya re demonstrated that? What is the percentage of compulsory re-insurance business/revenue to the total business/revenue?

This is what happened, the share has since declined to 7 bob and then its back up. Do the math for those who bought at the low and have sold at the high
