HISTORY & BACKGROUND
Consolidated Bank of Kenya Limited was incorporated on 7th December, 1989 . This was in an effort to stabilise the financial sector through the acquisition of nine insolvent institutions and thereafter restructuring them into a viable, professionally run commercial bank.
The Bank enjoys an independent, dynamic, result oriented culture and a flexible and innovative approach. We understand the markets in which our clients operate and offer a service built on personalised and specialised banking solutions.
We offer one of the widest range of banking products and services in the market today. We realize that a growing business demands a lot of time and energy. We understand these challenges and continously develop flexible, innovative and convinient financial solutions to help our customers achieve personal and business success.
With years of banking experience and special focus on SMEs, we are in a strong position to help growing businesses unlock their potential and sail through the complexities they may face.
The bank is fully owned by the Government with the majority shareholding in the bank (85.8%) held by The National Treasury. The remaining shareholding is spread over twenty-five (25) parastatals and other quasi government organizations.
