Banks in Kenya Finance School Project, Resume Pension Verification, and Rebrand for New Services - October 2025

The Standard Chartered Kenya Pension Fund will resume verification for 629 appellants in a 2021 pension dispute after the High Court lifted a temporary injunction. Separately, Co-operative Bank of Kenya has provided KShs 110 million in debt financing to Eboss Investments Company for the construction of Seven Oaks School in Ruiru. CIB Kenya, rebranded from Mayfair Bank after CIB Egypt took full control in 2023, is also set to disrupt the Kenyan banking sector. The bank will focus on digital services, cash flow-based lending, and Egypt-Kenya trade financing.
