Kenya’s Boldest Voice
The Standard Group Plc is a

Standard Group is recognized as a leading multi-media house in Kenya with a key

The Lake Region Economic Bloc (LREB) that brings together 14 counties in western Kenya has settled on buying majority shares in an established bank against earlier plans to start a new one.
Although the bloc is still negotiating with four banks, with a planned initial contribution of Sh2.8 billion, the bloc seeks to have the controlling shares in an existing bank with a current capital reserve of about Sh3 billion.
