For a tier 2 bank, this losses may be quite heavy.

I keep telling you guys not to touch any bank apart from the big ones namely KCB, EQTY, COOP, DTB, STANCHART

What about Barclays bank?

I personally wouldn't consider it. Does it even have a mobile lending service offering or agency banking?? It seems stuck in time while others are innovating

Barclays have a recently launched lending application called Timiza which clocked 2.7million users in 5months

Emirates was set up in 1985.
Apple introduced the iPhone decades after Motorola/Nokia.
Equity became a bank juzu juzi.

Execution is key. Can Barclays/Absa execute?
Anyway, this is a NIC thread.

NIC took a huge NPL hit (7bn?) after James Macharia left and the new guy came in. New brooms sweep clean. That will help them weather the storm since NIC started making provisions early on. Recoveries can help cushion new losses.

Banks should use this opportunity (IFSR9, post-election malaise, interest rate cap) to look at every loan and use prudence to NPL any loan that seems shaky. Where possible, take the tax benefit of providing for shaky loans.
If and when collections are made, these can be written back as profits.

The whole ABF model is questionable as executed by NIC as its mainstay. Look at the auction notices

It's a tough one for NIC and other banks.
It depends on how much ABF they do. There will always be defaults even when things are good but in the scenario, I hope NIC asks for a substantial deposit/down-payment.
Given that GoK is not paying (genuine) suppliers, NIC needs to reduce lending to GoK contractors/suppliers and (sadly) crack down on those who owe them money.
