Nedbank offers $855.5M to buy 66% of Kenya’s NCBA Group, pending approval.
Nedbank of South Africa has offered $855.5 million in cash and stock to acquire a 66% stake in Kenya’s NCBA Group, aiming to expand into East Africa.
The deal, valued at 1.4 times NCBA’s book value, includes 20% cash and 80% Nedbank shares listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
NCBA would become a subsidiary while retaining its brand, leadership, and public listing on the Nairobi Securities Exchange.
The acquisition seeks to combine NCBA’s regional presence across six countries with Nedbank’s capital and global reach, targeting growth in markets like Ethiopia and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The transaction is pending regulatory approval and could close in six to nine months.
