On another note; someone educate me (not a guru in this), in UK and other such countries where interest rate margins are very small, how do the likes of BBK and SCBK make their profits?

CREDIT CARDS thats where the margins are. 242 million credit card purchase were made in the UK in just November. 45% of the amount spend incurred interest. Average interest rates are 10.4%.
In the US the most profitable banks Jp Morgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Citigroup have a large portion of income from investment banking.
Lets look at JP Morgan & Chase which owns the Chase brand in the US which big in retail banking and credit cards. Over 60 million households.
45% of their revenue was from retail banking (general mwananchi products like credit cards, loans, mortgages etc)
35% from investment banking
13% from asset management
7% from commercial and corporate banking

Generally in terms of income 46% is from net interest income while 54% is from non interest income (fees)
In Wells Fargo (biggest in retail) 53% net interest income while 47% non interest income
35%


How many Kenyans with bank account have CREDIT cards?

MEAGER!!!!!!!!




@Watesh the analysis is very well received. Our banks still have a lot of learning and business model rethinking to do to get to that level. I spent some time in UK and credit cards were being sent daily through mail packaged with very enticing niceties as if it was the best Christmas gift a bank can give you. This drove and continues to drive uptake of credit cards in those economies. Don't be surprised to see this as a new warfront for the banks. It already started but will intensify. Woe unto those who fall into the credit card trap as it is a pit that only gets deeper unless you have other solid sources of revenue and a vault full of discipline.

KCB supply has dried up at the moment just around 150k shares up for grabs

And to imagine that I sold KCB at KES 61


@Obiero i fell into the trap of holding Equity and Simba at post 55 (i became quite passive unintentionally as the prices fell). That is why I am not selling at sub-40. Been accumulating more as the prices have been going down. I would rather write-off (forget) the amount for the next 10 years than sell at these prices. Am accumulating even more.

The big boys have come out to play yesterday and today.
Meanwhile Today I joined member properly! Shoot first ask questions last. Like @Goldilocks. I'm keeping them for a very long time. If it goes lower like say 20.00 I'll buy more. Was too hard to ignore at these prices and has been a target of mine for a long long time.

Barclays Bank had started hawking credit cards some years back. I found one of their "marketing executives" trying to sign up our watchman. And the guy was almost signing up. He had been fed with lofty bullsh!t that he had totally bought. Selling points - He doesn't have to apply for advance anymore. He can simply go to an ATM and withdraw (to be deducted from the salary). He doesn't have to stress about school fees. He can simply use the card. Bla bla bla. The guy couldn't wait to sign. Wacha I explained to the watchman what he was about to get himself into!!! The Barclays Bank fellow felt like killing me!
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Loading my account kesho. I hope the take off is not as crazy as the slide. I want to add Member and HF. Na Co-op pia.

I have been eyeing KCB too but I might not buy in this first round. I want to throw stupid money at Equity. HF I should also add substantially given that at one point I was waiting for 20/=.

Luckily, just like you guys, I am not investing grocery money!!!

I think kcb and equity will be comfortably in the 30s zone by end of Friday this week.
