Thanks!
I think NBK might be dethroned from #10 by DTBK or I&M (top 10 by assets) if you count their foreign operations.
DTBK now owns 51%+ of DTBU & DTBT... then there is Burundi in 2009 or 2010.
I&M Bank has 50% of Bank One (Mauritius) & are looking at another EA country according to BDA.
Kenyan Banks are finally realizing that there's no recession in Kenya. Our problem is PEV effects, bad politics and impunity.
In other news... K-rep results... what the? hmm... not consistent with industry... everyone else is making money (even standard Chartered!).. not a good sign... do they have a branch in the US or what?
Coldtusker: the list is limited to bank asstes, not groups assets, in which case Diamond Trust, CBA, I&M are are way ahead of NBK
Maishinski: true provisons are up at most banks as a result of PEV disruptions
But @K-Rep has a managment issue, staff costs are more repsonsible for the loss than PEV
Will go search your blog (as I've done countless times!) so I can compare the growth %wise.
There is a recession (or slowed growth) in Kenya...
1) These are 2008 results where huge gains were made due to SafCon loans. 2009 will see loan defaults.
2) Exporters are crying coz lower prices & lower volumes thus lower gains for banks in forex trades.
3) NPLs are up BUT these are not 'loan provisions' i.e. not taken against profits. Yet. As these NPLs get provided for... the effects will hit the profits.
2009 will be tougher for banks. I would say the 30%+ profit gains will drop to single digits (industry-wise).
