That's the other issue... They really need to have a proper alternative arrangement for that... Since when you open your account... You have your ID card.... Pin.... Your bank confirms that you are it's customer etc.... Interesting bit is diaspora guys can open accounts by sending their info via email (scanned copies et al)...

Also the issue of them calling you when you are selling at the secondary market... It's not necessary...

A proper secure platform can solve all these issues... It will also reduce the turnaround trading time....


CBK is stone age my broda. I don't understand why in this age of mpesa, ejijipay, jambonet, pesapal, trading shares on the NSE online and so on, A WHOLE CBK cannot even provide simple online access to one's treasury bonds or bills account. Even CDSC is far ahead of them on this. All I get is crumpled letters in my mail from them. Some of them are many months old! And for some reason some of the cbk letters have footprints.. Yes footprints on them! And the bidding is also stone age except for diaspora who can bid via email as you pointed out. I think they still use rotary phones hapo pia because on bidding days or results days nobody picks up! Bure ghabisa!

Thanks for the correction. Makes you wonder if they have so much time they engage in vigorous rhumba over them in the mailing room before they send them out!

It's unfortunate. I hope someone from CBK is reading this thread so they can tell their bosses we have been suffering for ages!

I would imagine so. I do not see any conflict of interest unless they sneak their bids (whether competitive or non) into the system beyond the cutoff date/time, but that would be a criminal offence IMHO
