The bank is sound but will the existing shareholders agree? Of interest to note is that the President was in France and Germany

were bank runs during the gold era same as today, most transactions are electronic nowadays. I thought a run should be easier to manage as opposed to when everyone would come to collect their gold or promissory notes or whatever paper money is.

How do you manage??? Refuse to give people their money?? Jam systems?? Do you know the consequences of these actions??

I am no expert banker, but I thought electronic transactions would be easier to manage than guys lining up with kiondos to be given cash or coins.
some random network timeouts, some random successful transactions that do not hit the other end only to be reversed the next day, at least guys online can not beat up a branch manager.
these days I understand you can hire some keyboard ninjas to do your social media 'dirty work', have those ninjas report rosy picture.

Seems the bank run shook some other banks

Opus Dei talked of opening a facility to restore confidence and assist a financial institution in capital troubles .This hyped level of confidence will help from today small lenders like Rafiki DTM which saw a run in the wake of Chase Bank saga. Rafiki was prompted to cap withdrawal limits to kes 10,000 to enhance survival.

Rebranding is to hoodwink Wanjiko because nothing shifts from doing things the old way unless management changes their way of implementing CBK policies. Adherence to the regulator is necessary.

NBK rebranded a few years ago but it sunk deeper into losses alongside monumental NPLs .

Because of vested interests & no majority shareholder, it will definitely take long to come up with an agreement acceptable to the major shareholders!!!

Run, run, run..... Not every other massive withdrawal will cause a bank to collapse. Equity did not lose much relative to its total deposit base n its was not a one day drainage. Even last yr after Imperial's fall most smaller lenders had a run but survived just as Chase would have remained afloat had they managed to plug the huge n sudden hole by the following morning.
So long as you can honour your settlemnts at CBK,,, there is a lifeline.
Methinks Chase had some few heavy depositors who jumped ship on the day.... coz they could have survived a run by retail depositors.


Sports Pesa

Seconded.. That movement caused the collapse

Big clients like the Law Society of Kenya, the United Nations Sacco and betting company SportPesa have also had at least Sh2 billion withheld.

If well established banks are notoriously doing this how about Saccos ? Can an external IT auditor be hired to comb through Saccos? Im.sure it's worse there

NBK did not re-brand, it just changed its leopard spots from green to maroon!

That is exactly how you elevate panic levels from 100 to 1000!!!

The minute people start reporting that electronic transfers are not going through then the rumour is no longer a rumour! The run becomes worse.

You actually stop runs by making money available to whoever wants it as soon and as efficiently as possible. In a day or two, people "realize" there is nothing to worry about.

And that is why CBK is making money available to banks in distress because the minute someone goes to the bank and can't withdraw their money then that bank is finished! Everyone will go to get their money and of course they will be no money and they will go back every day accompanied by more customers until the day they get their money - or the bank is placed under receivership!!!

Economics 101.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.
