  • Short Term Performance Implications of Privately Quoted Companies After the Announcement of Merger and Acquisition: a Case of UAP Holding Limited in Kenya
    International Journal of Economics and Financial Research ISSN(e): 2411-9407, ISSN(p): 2413-8533 Vol. 4, Issue. 11, pp: 337-348, 2018 Academic Research Publishing URL: https://arpgweb.com/journal/journal/5/aims Group DOI: https://doi.org/10.32861/ijefr.411.337.348 Original Research Open Access Short Term Performance Implications of Privately Quoted Companies After the Announcement of Merger and Acquisition: A Case of UAP Holding Limited in Kenya Benjamin O. Abongo Kenya Methodist University, Nairobi, Kenya Abstract The contemporary business environment has been highly complex and dynamic with organizations facing unprecedented amount of competition due to globalization and technological innovations. Merger and acquisition is one of the most popular organization strategy that organizations apply when faced with this kind of operating environment acquiring resources, skills, and competencies beyond their organization control. Many studies have been done to support implementation of M&As within organizations but they have indicated conflicting outcomes with some showing that it negatively affect organization performance and others indicating they positively affect performance. However, none of the studies done has concentrated on the effect within the privately traded organizations and very few but conflicting studies have been done on this relationship in Kenya. This study therefore sought to assess the effects of merger and acquisition on the performance of privately trading organizations in Kenya. The study was grounded upon the efficiency theory, the market power theory, and economic production theory. Reviewed literature revealed existing gaps related to the literature. The study adopted descriptive research design on short run data collected at UAP Insurance within the pre-merger (2012-2014) and post-merger (2015- 2017) periods for various performance statistics, where descriptive analysis was applied to assess the differences and independent sample t-test.

  • Local Underwriters Seeking to Capitalize on New $296M Marine Cargo Market by Staff Reporter ­ October 10, 2016 213
    Local underwriters seeking to capitalize on new $296m marine cargo market By Staff Reporter ­ October 10, 2016 213 1 Local insurance firms are seeking to reap big from the new insurance law, section 20 of the Insurance Act, which requires all importers to have local marine cover from January next year. UAP Old Mutual Group and Sanlam Kenya are some of the companies which have expressed interest saying they are ready to take on the Kshs Sh30 billion marine cargo insurance market by issuing cover to traders. Sanlam Kenya Group CEO Mugo Kibati said the local firm will be tapping Sanlam Group’s century­ old technical experience and financial muscle to deliver cover for its clients. Sanlam Marine is the largest such insurer in Africa. The new Marine Cargo Insurance (MCI) regulations will place marine business exclusively with locally registered underwriters. According to UAP Old Mutual, the firm has capacity to underwrite up to $250 million (Sh25 billion) in any one risk location. This is after the parent South African group unveiled Specialty Insurance in conjunction with Old Mutual Specialty Insurance. “Importers have traditionally preferred to use foreign firms especially when importing cargo such as mining and construction equipment. We believe the law will help buyers avoid the associated risks,” said UAP Old Mutual Group chief executive Peter Mwangi. Sanlam on the other hand said with Kenya Ports Authority’s expansion of cargo holding facilities at Kilindini harbour there is need for specialist value­added services such as marine and related portside risk solutions. Through its general insurance subsidiary Sanlam General Insurance, the firm provides value­added risk covers for local and multinational clients importing or exporting products.
