Today, KDIC hosted students from the Kenyatta University School of Economics for an industrial visit aimed at enhancing their understanding of deposit insurance, bank resolution, and KDIC’s role in safeguarding depositors and promoting financial system stability.

The visit offered students an opportunity to interact with our technical teams and gain a deeper understanding of deposit insurance, bank resolution, depositor protection, and the measures in place to promote confidence and stability within the banking sector.

The session provided an opportunity for meaningful engagement, with students actively participating in a vibrant question-and-answer discussion that explored key aspects of the financial sector and the Corporation’s mandate.

We are always encouraged by the curiosity, and enthusiasm of young professionals, and we remain happy to support learning opportunities that bridge the gap between academia and industry.
