Members loan book per various sources is 60% SME's...

With covid19 cases increasing on a daily basis despite limited testing...it's inevitable that Kenya will move from a curfew to a complete lockdown...


With a lockdown many of these SME's will not trade thus no cash flow...how will they service they're loans?

Well members has options...

1. Reclassify loans
2. Payment holidays


What else? What do you think? Is a prolonged locked down already priced in?

Can someone help me understand. what i understand is that banks will not have to classify loans that were performing pre COVID as non performing. Though in the long run, this will not help since the loans will probably be bad with some businesses even closing or severely down scaling

i also understand that banks may not be lending to businesses at this time but could they be lending to GOK?

Just like during the capping period, could the impact on banks not be that severe?

Very true ....if loans are not being paid, interest income cannot be earned. If loans are being denied interest income will not grow. In addition to that no bank to mpesa transaction income for a full quarter and less money circulating in the economy means the volumes have reduced which will impact some of the non funded income (card payments, salary processing fees, EFT/RTGS fees etc). The impact will definitely be there, the magnitude is hard to exactly pinpoint since ifrs 9 will be ignored for the time being.

Equity Group has cancelled its proposed dividend payout of Sh2.50 per share or a total of Sh9.4 billion, citing the need to conserve cash in the wake of the global Covid-19 pandemic.

“Accordingly, the board has passed a resolution withdrawing the proposed dividend recommendation and instead will be recommending to the shareholders that no dividend is paid for the financial year ended 31st December, 2019,” Equity said in a statement. “Therefore, the shareholders of the company and other investors are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the company’s ordinary shares on the Nairobi Securities Exchange, the Uganda Securities Exchange and the Rwanda Stock Exchange.”

Totally unprecedented since it listed on NSE. Let us now wait and see the effect of this announcement on the share price going forward. By 2022, the share price shall be quite interesting. Cash is king.

possibly true, somebody want in at a low price, the heavy local demand for the last one month which pushed price to 42 shows somebody desperately purchasing below 40

Some good news will be announced before long to counter the bad news.....and just like that, 40 will print again.
By the way, member always announces something good a day or two after dividend book closure. KCB has also perfected this game.
