You mean Chase bank was that gud, ama Alma used to be a manager there.I never knew a lot about the bank i could not even identify the logo.
But am a bit lost here, imagining there are more than 150K Alma's out there, they will wait for next week to get back their millions and then look for another suitor, and going by the word here, it does not look like its going to be KCB.So some other bank might get that money (say I&M)
So who can explain to me the purpose of KCB buying into Chase Bank? unless they have assets worth several billions which i doubt.Unless they force the former customers to stay with them for say 2 yrs as a collateral to acquire their monies. What are the benefits to KCB ?



KCB is not interested in the @Alma's of chase bank who are many but only make up 6% of the deposits, I think it's interested in the 3% who make up 94% of the deposits and of course the KCB managers are also interested in those yummy women working at chase bank


Very very true. Considering the counties and gov't agencies that had accounts there, KCB's true purpose is to get those accounts. That's why they are willing to give the alma's their 1m to leave bila kuleta shida.

That's why we are moaning as SME's. We are like a chick who was just dumped at the altar after the groom decided to spend time at Karumaindo.

I need some clarification hapa.. Chase Assurance is a wholly owned subsidiary of Chase bank, does this go to KCB too? Is it probable that KCB will also buy the other sister companies like Rafiki Microfinance and Genghis Capital? How exactly will this take place?

From my understanding the main purpose of this move is to enable depositors access their funds which are affecting the economy when locked up.

Chase bank is under the receiver manager but with KCB providing oversight.This is in terms of liquidity(note monies are upto 1M..),normal current account operations,receiving loan repayments etc.

Other bank issues like loans may be not there.

After due diligence which could take 6 months then KCB will have the first right to take it over.

As for the staff the receiver will decide how many he wants to keep for those basic operations.This means a good number will have to go.

All in all the small depositor is safe and I strongly support the Opus Dei who is doing a good job.

About "flight to safety" from tier 2 banks I urge we rethink our moves and support them but ensure good governance in them.Let the management structures be as required by Prudential Guidelines.

@Alma ....DTB,I&M,BOA are good to look at.



1.All branches to be opened on 27th April
2. Access up-to Kshs 1Million (accounts within this bracket make up 97% of the bank customers or 6% of total deposits)
3.Full access to new deposits


Would you go deposit new money there?

Those other companies were owned by Romeo & Juliet but were not part of Chase Group..very smart! They can't be touched. However, most costs are on Chase, so expect them to start making losses once they pay their own HR and rental costs.

@Chura, My basic understanding is this, If KCB acquires 70% of chase bank while chase bank had 50% in any subsidiary, KCB will takeover proportionate ownership of that subsidiary,in this case 35%(70%X 50%)

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.

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


I wish member ndio ingechulua hii Chase...they have almost similar customer base...ROAR is so "upper class".

I would not be shocked to see the wazuans who have been crying here are in that 3%. You will be surprised at the bigshots behind these handles. Also the 'guests' tend to be heavy hitters sourcing for insider info.

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.


Sijui @alma ako pande gani ya hizi %age...97% sio mbaya saaaaaana.
