As is banks were making too much in FX. They need to work on volumes and products not spreads. The uptick in FDI, if any, should help banks make more from FX.

Wah!!! This is very serious! You mean after the value of assests held by banks grew by a mere 17.6% in 2023, in 2024 it dropped by a massive 1.6%!!?? And what's even more horrifying, there is a point before the 6!!!

People really need to avoid over exposure to the growing banks profitability and dividends!!!
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

That's FX.
KES/USD from 130 to 160 hence the gains in (FX) assets in KES terms.

Check the performance of Banks in the biggest economies. Start with the US!

I don't understand why people imagine Banks owe them free/cheap money!!! Based on what!!??

If you think you have a good thing going, skip the banks and go directly to investors/venture capitalists!! They should jump at the opportunity if your product is as good as you imagine it is!!!

They are in for another 6.5 Billion loan as strategic investors search seems to have hit headwinds.

Loan manenos...

Where would KQ be without the banks (and the government)!!???

How now? Misused how?

You guys believe people with more skin in the game like James Mwangi and Gideon Muriuki will do things to eff up something they stand to lose the most if things go south!!??

People who are the single largest individual shareholders are presiding over the demise of the same? Let's get real!!

James Mwangi for example earned 542.4 million dividends from Equity FY 2024.

If he effs up your 10k, 100k, 1m or even 10m dividends he effs up his 542m!! When your dividends grow from 10k to 20k, his grow to a billion plus!!!

Who do you think would more worried by the performance of the bank!!??

And even away from the bank, his whole persona is defined by the bank! He derives even his international recognition and responsibilities from that. He effs the bank up and he takes a personal hit beyond money.

I personally I'm not worried by some of these small small rumours and allegations. Only fundamentals.
