In the search for financial freedom, understanding where you
save your money is crucial. The recent past has seen the banking sector flooded
and it can be challenging to find the best bank for you. In this article, I will
be highlighting on the 10 best banks in Kenya according to a study conducted by
Cytonn Investments.
KCB Group has been ranked as the most attractive bank in Kenya, maintaining its position due to its strong franchise value and impressive intrinsic value score. The franchise score evaluates the bank’s overall business strength across various metrics, while the intrinsic score measures its potential for investment returns. KCB’s robust capacity to generate profits from its core business secures its top spot.
Following closely is I&M Holdings, which has demonstrated significant
strength and stability, earning it the second position.
Co-operative Bank of Kenya ranks third, recognized for its comprehensive business strength and potential for growth.
Equity Bank Holdings Limited secures the fourth spot, showing substantial promise in its investment return potential and business operations.
Despite its strong future growth opportunity perspective, Diamond Trust Bank Kenya is placed fifth due to a relatively weaker franchise score.
Stanbic Bank Holdings Limited ranks sixth, noted for its balanced approach to business strength and growth potential.
Absa Bank holds the seventh position, reflecting its steady performance and promising future outlook.
NCBA Group is placed eighth, recognized for its solid business fundamentals and investment potential.
Standard Chartered Bank of Kenya secures the ninth spot, showing resilience and a well-rounded business strategy.
Housing Finance Group ranks tenth, primarily due to its weaker franchise rankings and non-promising future growth perspective caused by a lack of proper cost efficiency structures.
