KCB has been writing off and selling some of its bad loans to reduce its stock of non-performing loans (NPLs) by the end of the year.

The lender expects these actions to reduce its ratio of NPLs — loans which have not been serviced for more than three months — to performing ones to between 15 and 17 per cent in 2022.
