Wright and David Cracknell From hawker to wholesaler: Equity Bank’s sharp eye changed my life March 2007 MicroSave – Market-led solutions for financial services << Hon. Prof. George Saitoti, Minister for Education presided over the commissioning of Equity Bank’s 2007 Pre-university Sponsorship Program. Equity Bank’s product innovation >> << Slum lighting initiative in which Equity Bank has partnered with the City Council of Nairobi and Adopt-A- Light Equity Bank’s Market led Revolution Graham A.N. Wright and David Cracknell Introduction Today Equity Bank is a remarkable institution. But in 1993, the Central Bank of Kenya confirmed that, as Equity Building Society, it was technically insolvent and had poor board supervision and inadequate management. Non-performing loans were 54% of the portfolio, and accumulated losses totalled KSh.33 million against a paid-up capital of KSh.3 million. Equity’s liquidity ratio stood at 5.8%, far below the required 20%. Yet, recognising its potential to make a valuable contribution to serving the poor in Kenya, the Central Bank of Kenya allowed it to continue in business after a capital injection. Within two years, in 1995 the organisation had made a small operating profit. Since then Equity has moved from strength to strength growing by leaps and bounds. On January 1st, 2005 Equity Building Society transformed into a bank and on August 7th 2006 it was listed on the Nairobi Stock Exchange with an initial valuation of KSh 6.3 billion, and with a current valuation of over KSh.21 billion.

Britam has consistently declared dividends to shareholders since the company was listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange in 2011. To improve and enhance corporate governance, the shareholders also approved the appointment of Ms Caroline Kigen, Mr Mohamed Karama and Mr Mike Laiser as Directors in the Holdings Company Board. Ms Kigen, a former lecturer at the University of Nairobi and Strathmore University, is a financial management and corporate governance consultant.
