Working hard perse was the way of the past whereas to-date working hard, information and shrewdness are key to our way towards successful life and financial freedom.Just between January and today for a medium investor/speculator you would have gained 45% on you investment in CRDB Shares or 11% on DCB shares.Would you have invested TZS 11 million in Dec 2010/Jan2011, today your shares would be valued at TZS 16 million. Despite the astonishing performance of the shares still foreign investors appetite has been pushing the price of the shares upward!
Below I have analyzed current prices versus year 2010 performance of major and listed banks in Dar es Salaam stock exchange. Current prices seem to value CRDB Bank 44% above its book value and NMB 41% above its book value and amazingly DCB is valued 32% below its book value.Strategically, one could balance his or her portfolio between CRDB and DCB or a mix between NMB & DCB!DCB bank is well known for its consistent dividend payout culture!
P/E for DCB is 3 years, while for CRDB is 7 years, NMB is 6 years! P/E ratio indicates shareholders believe in the bank and appetite for the bank shares.Higher P/E ratio implies long payback period and lower returns on your investment in most cases.
CRDB Staff Seem to be more productive than other banks with Average earning capacity of TZS 35Mln, followed by DCB 24Mln, NMB 21Mln and lastly NBC staff average of 2mln. However in 2010 NBC was affected by the group synchronization initiative which saw huge amounts written off the books as impairments and bad debts.
