Crown Paints’ majority shareholder Barclay Holdings will raise its stake in the company if minority shareholders do not provide their proportionate capital in the impending Sh711.8 million rights issue.

The Belize-based institutional investor currently holds a 62 percent stake in the Nairobi Securities Exchange-listed firm and plans to spend more than its minimum allocation of Sh441.3 million in the capital call.
