KCB Group has doubled its final dividend to Sh3 per share after posting 11.2 percent rise in net profit for the year ended December, driven by growth in interest income.
The higher payout raises the bank’s total dividend per share to Sh7 for the period, after the lender paid an enhanced interim dividend of Sh4 per share in mid-2025 following proceeds from the sale of National Bank of Kenya (NBK).
