What's your opinion on NIC and KCB?


This is a KenGen thread! Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

NIC - I like John Gachora and his FD. The NPLs worry me.

KCB - I cannot put my finger on it but something doesn't sit right with me when I look at KCB. Look at their NPLs, NNPLs, low level of provisions vs NPLs. Also the Net NPL exposure has increased by 4.1bn in the past 12 months.

There's more to KCB than that. Like I said, my gut feeling is there's something we do not know. Or I do not know.

BTW, who 'controls' KCB? Who has the influence to influence the hiring of board members and senior management?

Ndegwas control NIC with 25% (or more) ownership.
Shahs control I&M with various trusts/owners/firms 33%+
BB controls BBK. 50%+
SC controls SCBK. 50%+
GoK/NSSF controls NBK.

GoK. Unless NSSF opposes GoK it will be hard for the other shareholders to gang up to outvote GoK. If GoK + NSSF vote together then getting the others to vote against them is nigh impossible.

Based on your criterion, you would not buy Berkshire Hathaway.

I would buy Berkshire because Buffets family is not directly involved in running of the businesses. As for those examples you've given above, i do not trust their integrity and succession plans

I agree. You should stick with KenGen.

It means if for example you have 1000 kengen rights issue allocated to you.
If you don't want to participate in the rights and would like to sell them in the mkt your proceeds will be
1000*0.05=ksh.50 then deduct brokerage charges

Thanks, understood for the case of the seller. What about the case of the buyer who will take these rights?

The buyer who will take the rights you are selling will buy at 6.55+0.05=6.60
