My key takeaways...
- He believes that KCB is still the number one bank irrespective of what is on media
- He conceded somewhat that NBK was a rubbish buy but they are committed to correcting things
- He believes they were right to make increased provisons when they did and that other bank are only now just catching on
- The guy really knows (and belives in) his people. His presentation is littered with shout outs to all the boys and girls leading various depts/initiatives
- I get the sense he feels a tremendous responsibility to shareholders and past management (perhaps not immediate) to steer the ship right
- He tried to dilute the perception that KCB and GoK are bedmates....and then later concedes that proximity to GoK is a comparative advanatage
- Believes that the market is unjustly spooked and is not reflecting anywhere near the true value of KCB. Several slides that compare KCB with peers - market cap vs shareholder funds
