Is a Rights Issue imminent for KCB in 2018?

I don't think so;they will adjust and comply accordingly.
The CEO Oigara said they have more than sufficient reserve which even gave them room to payout an interim dividend

It depends on how big their exposure is. There is a transitional phasing-in period proposed by Basel(and which I expect CBK to include in their implementation guidance) of spreading the effect within five years for the day one effect on core tier 1 capital.

So KCB may not have sufficient Tier 1 Capital to cover their ratios if IFRS 9 was implemented in full on 1st Jan 2018?

Where does it say that there is a 5-year "transitional phase-in" period? Aspects of the IFRS 9 could have been "early adopted" as done by DTB.

Because of the expected credit losses concept, it's quite possible that the impact may thin out their tier 1 capital.

There are two aspects to the IFRS 9 implementation. The accounting and the regulatory. Good examples, tier one capital is not an accounting but regulatory aspect. Another example, the definition of a loan in default is also a regulatory aspect. Regulatory aspects are usually standardized for all banks based on concepts proposed by Basel and adopted by the regulator, in this case, CBK.

Thank you.
What's the (significant) accounting aspect of IFRS 9?
Weren't the SLRs a result of CBK's more stringent prudential guidelines?
Doesn't the more stringent of the 2 standards apply i.e. PG vs IFRS 9?
Will SLRs remains in place on 1st Jan 2018?

No need kujistress.
Just wait for the CBK guidelines and see whether KCB will be compliant

When are these expected to be out? [It's almost end of 3Q]
Doesn't ICPAK have a say?

In light of IFRS 9, I am staying away from KCB when there are other options eg NIC, Equity and I&M

It's a SIFI hence my concern just like I worry about KQ being subsidized by taxpayers like me. I don't want Taxpayer cash being used to subsidize [low ROE] KCB either when I would rather re-invest my own money instead of GoK borrowing or increasing taxes.

Plus what does this say about KCB's lending policies?

BTW, check this out http://www.businessdaily...7088-rca47gz/index.html

Good luck re: KCB
