Britam Holdings is set for a multi-billion-shilling outlay when it defends its 48.2 percent stake in fellow listed firm HF Group in the latter’s proposed rights issue that is pending regulatory approval.

The insurer spent more than Sh5.2 billion to acquire its stake in HF and later lent the mortgage firm Sh1 billion when the associate was mired in losses.
