In 2017, the bank had closed Moi Avenue, Haile Selassie, Waiyaki Way, Kawangware, Rahimtulla, Nakummatt Meru and Wundanyi branches. This cut branch network from 96 to 89. Bamburi, Maragua and Supplies branches are now up for sale. Very sad. I remember this branch in the early 80s. My mom would travel 50kms on a very bad road to transact once a quarter. She remained very loyal and sad to see its now closed "Things that matter most must never be at the mercy of things that matter least." Goethe

Blunders made by this Board over the last 2 decades should form a case study on how not to run a business

I did my own analysis of banks and realised Barclays is doing better than most of of the listed lenders; NON PERFORMING LOANS Barclays-8% Kcb-7% Equity-8% Co-op-12% I&M-14% LOAN LOSS PROVISION Barclays- 4% Kcb-3% Equity-3% Co-op-4% I&M-5% INTEREST EXPENSE Barclays-24% Kcb-26% Equity-22% Co-op-28% I&M-40% Towards the goal of financial freedom

Is it a good thing?

The best comparison is with top three in profitabilty which i tried to link. With an NPL of 8%,thats ver much commendable. Towards the goal of financial freedom

Is it a good thing? Based on my statistics,the reason is consolidation.They are trying to preserve their capital.They are no longer the market leaders they used to be and have accepted the reality. They took a more conservative approach thats neither robust(like kcb and equity) nor a mean approach(like co-op). Going forward,i see them stabilising slowly and buoyed by separation from the UK father,they will try to grow slowly. Towards the goal of financial freedom

They recently approved a loan for 300 million shillings to choppies super market. I don't have any link to prove but it's a true fact came out of a senior manager in Barclays
