As someone who needs to use Chase Bank services in the short term, that's very good.

But I'm shopping for another bank like chase. If you have fununu tumia mimi. Can't imagine KCB management running this bank in the long term. We'll go back to those long ques. Oh boy another big brother takes over.

Very good news. Open the branches so that we can access the facilities as we shop for other options.

Asante sana. I'll be visiting them soon.

People don't understand that Chase was great coz of customer care. That was why we banked with them.

I can just see the future where all those branches are turned into green with lions all over and dirty floors and a manager who doesn't know your name.

As an investor, I may buy KCB shares. As a customer, let me do some shopping. Can't even imagine the culture shock for Chase Employees. Some who actually left KCB to run to Chase.

Good news though, wacha tuendelee na kazi.

By the way, is anyone going to court for shutting down this bank or is this another PR exercise. Will KCB pay billions to the very same directors who disappeared with the money. Can you imagine the message?

Run down your bank...Get saved by KCB. Get paid billions and retire.

opening is good news,but iam not happy about the management to come

This represents the first case where a bank in receivership has been opened in recent times in Kenya . I wish Kcb all the best. ...but as @ alma confirms to allow most depositors get their funds.

It's a case of once beaten twice shy for it's clients. .They can try to change name if a takeover materialises

Is it true that 97% of the account holders had only 6% of the bank deposits? 3% held 94% so you can imagine who are the 3% this explains a lot.

So did the directors return the 8 billion?

It's in black and white. That's why they say money without intelligence will kill you - you need smarts if you have more than 1m, to protect you, because CBK/KDIC are not doing it.
