The Standard Group Plc is a
multi-media organization with investments in media platforms spanning newspaper
print operations, television, radio broadcasting, digital and online services. The
Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key
influence in matters of national and international interest.
Kenya Commercial Bank Group has announced a 17 per cent increase in pre-tax profit for the nine months ending September 2014 to Sh17.7 billion. This is compared to Sh15.2 million posted in a similar period last year.
This improvement in profitability is attributed to growth in non-funded income and enhanced business efficiencies through the use of alternative channels. KCB has also been on an aggressive campaign to recover previous non-performing loans as exhibited by the drop in non-performing loans (NPL) ratio.
