CBK has given banks 5 years to comply with IFRS9. Wapi vvs to comment on this
No CBK gave banks 5 years to repair the capital side. Banks implement IFRS9 but 5 years to do capital raising.
It's the same thing as what i said. IFRS9=Higher capital to cater for risks
@ericsson Some banks [esp one SIFI with a huge GoK shareholding] got a pass [on the Capital side as @wukan put it] but that doesn't mean they do not have to "provision" the SLRs within that timeframe. The question is: Why does KCB have SLRs (as a % of the Loan Book) far higher than the most of the banks?
KCB is the biggest bank and the biggest loan portfolio in kenya.

But why the largest SLR as a % of its Loan Portfolio?

They are providing higher provisionings for their loans compared to the other banks and a higher risk profile.This has the effect of them being very stringent and thoroughly vetting their loan applications.

Then why are the increased provisions being "written back" as SLRs? How do SLRs originate?

@vvs SLR you cant do a comparison amongst banks because the amount to put aside varies on each bank. For further reading refer to the below article http://www.investingansw.../loan-loss-reserves-2790
