Family Bank shareholders have approved establishment of a non-operating holding company that will hold shares in Family Bank Kenya and other non-banking subsidiaries ahead of expansion plans.
“Regional expansion remains a focus for the Bank in supporting our business growth and expansion strategy. We are exploring the possibility of expanding our footprint to countries within the East, West and Central African region,” said Family Bank CEO Nancy Njau.
“This non-operating holding company will allow for capital efficiency, risk management and establishment of separate governance structures for both banking and our non- banking subsidiaries,” she said.
The approval comes following the Annual General Meeting where the shareholders also approved a KES. 723 million dividend pay-out for the financial year ended December 2023.
