NCBA Bank Kenya emerged top in interest income for the 2023 financial year with a whopping increase of 24.5% to Kshs 65.22 billion. This growth can be attributed to the expansion of the bank’s equity lending portfolio.

Its loan portfolio achieved impressive growth, with consumer loans reaching Kshs 337.02 billion, an impressive growth of 20.83% over the previous year. This expansion confirms the bank’s commitment to offer a range of credit products to both retail and corporate clients. It caters to personal banking, business banking, investment banking, and wealth management needs.

Notably, NCBA offers competitive interest rates, extended loan repayment periods of up to 25 years, and mortgage facilities in various currencies, including Kenyan shillings, dollars, pounds, and euros.

The bank’s profits rose further with profit after tax growing by an impressive 55.7%, to an impressive Kshs 21.46 billion. These developments reflect NCBA’s overall financial strength and improved management strategies. 

Shareholders also benefited from this success, paying a maximum dividend of Kshs 4.75 per share, representing total dividends of Kshs 7.8 billion. This represents an increase of 11.8% compared to the previous year. However, interest expense also increased by 41%, to Kshs 30.62 billion.
