Kenya Reinsurance Corporation (Kenya Re) says concern by American rating agency A.M. Best over its enterprise risk management—in the face of expected business growth and increasingly sophisticated competition—is being addressed.
“What we are doing is to address each of those issues raised,” said chief executive officer Jadiah Mwarania at a press briefing on the company’s results.
“Some of them could be environmental based on the country’s ratings.”
Mr Mwarania said Kenya Re officials are set to meet A.M. Best officials to address the concern.
“We are having a meeting with A.M. Best in September. We also took opportunity of visiting them in London to see what it is they are looking for,” said Mr Mwarania.
“While I hold a different personal opinion when I look at the fundamentals of Kenya Re but AM Best said, and so we accepted and we addressed the issues they raised,” he said.
Kenya Re is also engaging Johannesburg ratings agency GCR which early last month placed its national scale claims paying ability rating of AA(KE) and international scale claims paying ability rating of BB “under review”.
“While the ratings are expiring today (August 1), GCR is currently engaging with the rated entity and expects to update the current ratings and publicly release them by the end of September 2018,” said the GCR on August 1 without divulging additional information. https://www.businessdail...69864-l88uru/index.html

Kizungu mingi! The guy has to travel to London to understand a report? Kenya Re is in trouble and the action of the share price shows it COOP, IMH, KEGN, KQ, MTNU

Kizungu mingi! The guy has to travel to London to understand a report? Kenya Re is in trouble and the action of the share price shows it  1) Do Sebastian and MJ travel to Paris/Amsterdam to meet with their superiors? 2) He (& the team) is going to have a discussion or to make additional queries in person. It might be akin to a training course where they could/should learn which areas need improvement. 3) His job is to worry about performance of the firm and sustainability of profits NOT the share price. I hope KenRe uses airlines that provide Value for Money. I hear BA has good deals for flights to London.  Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

Luckily this company/corporation didn't invest in the chase and imperial bank corporate bonds.
Their biggest chunk of corporate bonds is in the NIC bank and Centum Huge investments in GOK securities. Everyone has massive GOK securities... God forbid.... Indeed, the state holds too much of corporate assets. If GOK defaults... Difficult,they just increase taxes to get the money 💵 More like print cash and let the shilling devalue
