Airtel ready to get in the 4G game full force. This will definitely improve their network to some degree

Too little, too late!

Safaricom dominates mobile data and is now in FTTH.
Faiba 4G is good but in limited areas. JTL also offers home service.

Airtel is coming to the party a little late BUT as a consumer I hope they do well to counter-balance Safcom.

You are right, a few months ago I used to travel to Litein fortnightly, after Limuru, Airtel signal would drop and you would pick it up at Mai Mahiu. From there no 3g, till Narok, From Narok again no 3g till Bomet. If their 3g network was that bad, 4g ndio itakuwa mzuri

Is the Loan Book what they have outstanding?
8bn for M-Shwari seems low.

What’s the difference between M-Shwari and KCB-MPesa?
Do customers get a choice between MShwari and KCB?
How do others eg Tala disburse their loans?

I am surprised more banks haven’t gone into Microfinance (via MFI subsidiaries) considering MFIs aren’t under a rate cap.

What’s the difference between M-Shwari and KCB-MPesa? M-Shwari and KCB M-Pesa are a 'similar' product but
M-Shwari = Safcom + CBA Partnership
KCB M-Pesa = Safcom + KCB Partnership

Do customers get a choice between MShwari and KCB?The choice of product is not made by primary KCB or CBA customers, but by safcom customers

Safaricom expands more into the local music industry by launching a music streaming app called Songa. Tried it, so far I am impressed. Some parts of the app need some work and music collection is still lacking. Hope we have a huge product in our hands
