Owining two competing etities in the same market.
Unless either they decide chase bank and ecobank be merged

Economics 101: Owning two competing business is NOT conflict of interest (especially if you are a major shareholder in both).

It could be loosely be deemed to some sort of conflict if you are a major shareholder in one and a minor shareholder in the other and you use you influence in the company where you are the minor shareholder to push for decisions that favour the company where you are the major shareholders - But where would the major shareholders in the company you are a minor shareholder be when you are pulling that off.

Conflict of interest comes in when companies are interacting/trading with each other. Like Ciano selling vegetables to Uchumi or if Dr. Opus Dei would own a bank/become the main shareholder in one!



Owning 2 competing entities in a market can be construed as 'unwarranted concentration of economic power' as outlined in section 50 of the competition act. HOWEVER, for the competition authority to determine so, there are some rules there-under. like for example there needs to be evidence of ownership i.e

Ownership concentration - where one or more undertakings control a substantial ownership interest in businesses or the productive inputs of a particular industry in the economy to affect the market outcomes in a manner that will result to the effects set out in Section 50(4) of the Act.

Another vital rule is whether the combined market share of the undertaking is more than 40%; If so the competition authority can act. In your case i doubt ecobank and chase can command 40 percent of the market.

Another issue that flows from all that is who regulates competition and such related matters in the banking sector. CAK or CBK??

They will need to rebrand from chase to kcb. The name chase gives bad memories and reduces confidence.

They will take their time to pick the carcas of what remains of Chase Bank, woo all the good and juicy customers as they learn what attracted them to Chase.

When done, they will simply let go off the remainder of the shell and declare it unsalvageable. Take on the good employees and prime locations and rebrand them as KCB.

Smart move by KCB and CBK. No one looses out other than the dodgy Chase shareholders

The big questions:

1. Which depositors don't interpret this as a call to MOVE funds? Including via online and mobile banking come Wednesday?

2. Do the hefty depositors locked in, 64bn in 5,000 accounts, who obviously have relations with more than one bank, agree to move to KCB?

There is a good reason why banks record depositors on the debit column (beyond accounting practice). The real value to KCB is in the loan portfolio and especially the SME customers that Chase has attracted over the years. These ones are much harder to move.

For the long term, some value could come from the brand but I don't think KCB will want a competing brand in its stable. Remember the challenges they have had over the years in integrating Savings and Loan, which is their baby.

Interesting @Wakanyugi, very good point and one I missed.

I see profile of their loans and advances to customers as at 2014 was:
44% maturing within one year
17% maturing within 1-3 years
39% maturing over three years

Chase was reputed for being a 'very understanding lender'. So how many of the loans and advances to these captive customers are unsecured - 50%? 65%? 75%?

Do you think it is in order that Chase staff are busy singing and dancing and circulating videos while billions of depositors' funds are stuck in an organisation where dirty deals were going down?

What is the reason? In most cases, you will find that total net book value is usually less than total custom deposits, the bank cannot only be interested in loan book at the expenses of deposits since the later determines the former

Retained earnings its tricky to touch them because it will affect the statutory capital.
Retained earnings is a component of core capital.

When you deposit money in an account the Bank considers it a loan that you can often call back any time. So it goes to the liability column. But when you borrow money from a bank, the logic is reversed. To the Banker, you are now the gift that keeps on giving.

Of course I am not a banker...but akina Kula Raha wanaweza kuchangia huu mjadala.
