the bonds market with a market share of 20.8% as of September 2024. This leadership is reflected in a transaction
value of KES 55.2bn, demonstrating the company’s ability to attract significant investment flows and contribute to
the vibrancy of the market.

areas of financial services. Building and growing the Kenyan capital market is our collective responsibility. This
milestone demonstrates Capital A Investment Bank’s leadership and commitment to innovation. We believe that
Capital A Investment Bank will continue to contribute significantly to the depth and liquidity of our market.”
