The banking bonanza in Kenya is over. Banks better pay attention to their subsidiaries where there are no caps.

I could be wrong but I think I&M, KCB, Equity & COOP are also present beyond Kenya

The ex-Kenya operations for these 3 are less than 20% of their total business. Kenya remains "king" for these banks. That said, Equity and I&M have been increasing their ex-Kenya presence.
Equity - Procredit in DRC has replaced South Sudan
I&M - BankOne in Mauritius has been growing in importance

It would take a miracle for a Kenyan bank to be the largest bank in a foreign country without adequate government holding by the foreign state.. Meanwhile, sell all bank stocks apart from COOP & KCB, if you have to hold

“Today’s rating action is driven primarily by a potential weakening of the Kenyan government’s credit profile, in particular in the country’s fiscal strength and liquidity risk, as captured by Moody’s recent decision to place Kenya’s B1 government ratings on review for downgrade,” agency said in a statement.

But this will definitely make cost of international credit to Kenya more expensive?

Deep slide down is anticipated next week. Massive losses are on the way. NSE 20 likely to test 3,200-3,300. Foreigner effects at the NSE http://www.businessdaily...145702-4rgrcw/index.html
