Check the annual report of list of shareholders.
Check the latest and previous.

Great
2% but GoK has 60%. I hope JHL can buy 26% and get some board seats but GoK still calls the shots.
Board seats they need minimum 10%.
Do you have any source to back up that 10% can get them a board seat?
I know you said "minimum" but that means little in this context since GoK clearly has 50%+
If they want a bigger stake they could explore the other reinsurers such as Continental Re Kenya.
Britam years back expressed intention but little information is available on what happened.
https://www.businessdail...n-nigerian-firm-2055952 What's the connection between Continental Re and Kenya Re?
If they want a bigger stake in a reinsurance firm and don't want a firm where Gok has control/calls the shots.
Isn't the point of investing to buy cheap and unlock value?
Yes,
You can also buy and have synergy with it for example directing their reinsurance business through a company they have a stake in to lock in the money or profits
That would simply be concentrating their risk that they would to reinsure. Why not keep buying Kenya Re which is cheap on a NAV basis vs paying full price for Continental Re?
Doesn't Jubilee have the option of not reinsuring with anyone (except for Kenya Re) if it wants to retain more of the premiums?
No they don't.
There are some business because of their value/worth a portion of it you have to reinsure with two or more reinsurers.
Jubilee isn't in charge of "General Business" (51% in Kenya sold to Allianz). The Life and Medical to be reinsured can easily be shared between Kenya Re and Allianz.
Not that easily as you have mentioned.
Allianz Kenya is an insurance company,so how does it reinsure
Yes, it is that easy. It's not rocket science.
Who said Jubilee should reinsure with Allianz KE?
Allianz (the partner and fellow shareholder) is a HUGE firm with a reinsurance arm
