Stanbic Bank Kenya has posted a 33.4 per cent drop in profit for the first quarter of the year, attributed to a slowed global economic growth.
The lender made Sh1.5 billion profit for the quarter ended March 2020 compared to Sh2.3 billion posted in a similar period in 2019. Chief Executive Charles Mudiwa attributed the drop in profit to falling interest income, which reduced to Sh2.3 billion from Sh3.3 billion during a similar period last year.
