The Supreme Court of Kenya has dismissed an application by Standard Chartered Bank Kenya Limited (StanChart) attempting to halt a Court of Appeal (CoA) ruling. This ruling directed StanChart to pay millions of shillings in pension dues to former employees, marking a significant development in a long-standing dispute.

• The Supreme Court, led by Vice President and Chief Justice Philomena Mwilu, found it lacked jurisdiction under Article 163(4)(a) of the Constitution.
• The dispute originated when the Retirement Benefits Authority (RBA) dismissed retirees' claims, leading them to the Tribunal, which ruled in their favor.
• The CoA upheld the Tribunal's decision, emphasizing trustee duties in pension fund management and mandating the bank to compute and disburse the pension dues.
