It is licensed as a commercial bank, by the Central Bank of Kenya, the central bank and national banking regulator.[4]In 2010 the entity introduced Agency banking model[5] which has proved a success[6]and still regulated by Central Bank of Kenya Prudential guidelines.[7] HistoryEquity Bank Kenya Limited was incorporated in 2014 as a result of the corporate restructure of Equity Group Holdings Limited.[8] Prior to November 2014, Equity Group Holdings Limited operated both as a licensed bank and a holding company for its subsidiaries. On 31 October 2014, Equity Bank announced its intention to incorporate a new wholly owned subsidiary, Equity Bank Kenya Limited, to which it would transfer its Kenyan banking business, assets and liabilities. The rationale for the re-organisation is that by converting Equity Group Holdings Limited into a non-trading holding company (as defined under the Banking Act) that owns both banking and non-banking subsidiary companies and provides strategic, brand, risk and talent management to its subsidiaries, the Group will be better placed to invest and to develop the existing and new businesses as part of its third phase of growth and transformation.[8] During an extraordinary shareholders general meeting held on 24 November 2014, it was resolved to adopt the proposed restructure thus leading to the formation of Equity Bank Kenya Limited.[9] OwnershipEquity Bank is a wholly owned subsidiary of Equity Group Holdings Limited.
