In this episode, recorded on August 11, 2026, we sit down with Charles Kibaara (Chief Manager Operations & Branches, Credit Bank) to break down the bank's core focus on small and medium-sized enterprises across Kenya. We explore how Credit Bank is leveraging its T24 core banking upgrade for instant digital bid bonds, the impact of DFI-aligned governance standards from ShoreCap's investment, liquidity allocation shifts back into private-sector credit, and the strategic roadmap toward an eventual listing on the Nairobi Securities Exchange.
