CBD is getting crazy...very soon the parking boys will start charging pedestrians for passing through their 'territories'!

@CBKKenya Hopefully this removes the stigma attached to the discount window...but also you'll need to make sufficient disclosures on interventions and offtake levels!

Press Release - Enhancing Monetary Policy Transmission Through DhowCSD, Interest Rate Corridor and Improved Access to the Discount (Overnight) Window

Amazing how Dubai is successfully built on rent-seeking...and is able to calibrate rents at the end of each cycle!

@matohmatoh Check DM

Any smartphone fundi on the TL?

There's something sinister about this X symbol... something oppressive.

BODO: Despite Emmanuel Macron’s declaration of the end of La Françafrique, the coups continue to expose a deep and strong resentment for France and has invited strong public support from the general population. bit.ly/3qiY4sw

Fitch is not serious. Downgrading US whose currency is a global reserve asset and its demand pays all the bills!

@hilaryogalo 🤣

@GeorgeBodo By this time last year, someone nailed the CSD architecture tender. It's so unshakeable, not even aliens can crash that party! 🛸😄

Nothing against the DhowCSD but I really thought CBK would be moving towards primary dealership...

@ill_dduor Not just intermediaries but also market makers

@GeorgeBodo Aye, primary dealership entails selecting just a few from the whole lot to act as intermediaries. But with far too many intermediaries, probably CBK thought best not to rock the boat...for now

These EABL numbers are puzzling...also Diageo is really squeezing cash out of the company.

Ruto shouldn't have missed the Africa-Russia summit in St. Petersburg. As I wrote couple of weeks back,he should have used the opportunity to negotiate for Russian oil, which is discounted and better than the deferred transactions with the Gulf states. businessdailyafrica.com/bd/opinion-ana…

Any expert smartphone fundi on TL?

@bankelele @qatarairways Just a 6% net margin....shows why airlines rarely return cost of capital

The @qatarairways group reports a net profit of $1.21 billion from revenue of $21 billion in 2022/23. The airline carried 31.7 million passengers, flying 1.4 million people to Qatar for the 2022 World Cup, and will now be the official airline partner of #F1 for five years.

Random Question: Why is Insolvency Regime ineffective in Kenya? Since the Insolvency Act came into effect almost a decade ago, there is absolutely nothing much to show. What was supposed to save jobs, businesses and tax base, is killing them. Time to rethink insolvency otherwise it will easily be a lost decade as it has been in the REITs. "It is quite puzzling that not a single business placed under administration has come back to life, which begs the question of whether the problem lies with the practitioners of the law and needs further enhancements."
