Investors have traded 2.48 million Centum shares at Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) since the company opened its share buyback on February 6, doubling the daily average on the stock prior to the programme.

The higher activity is reflective of both the company’s buyback plan and higher demand from other investors who are taking a position in anticipation that the reduced float will have a positive impact on the price.
