That is why I avoid these “small” banks

Their main selling point is lack of queues and better customer service

wacha nipange line KCB nikijua my money is 98% safe.

Ok, what if ones employer banks there ? since they can’t deposit nor withdraw as per now

if the bank’s financial ratios are beyond the point of being salvaged, then the employer can only be assured of 100k as @stunner says. However, after the banks’s assets are liquidated, its financial obligationss will be settled as follows in the following order

(a) claims by the Corporation (KDIC)

(b) insured deposits

(c) staff wages

(d) uninsured deposits

(e) statutory obligations

(f) any other creditors

I have never understood why some people bank with these mid tier banks. My philosophy has always bn there is safety in large numbers. This is a classic case where herd mentality works in your favour by banking with any of the top tier banks in kenya.
