What does the Bible say?There are twice as many verses in the Bible about
money than there are about faith and prayer combined.
Solomon was the wealthiest man who ever lived.In the book of proverbs, he mentions wealth and poverty as one of his major themes because of ‘the need to give prudence to the naïve.’
- Proverbs 1:4
We are lovers of money
There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money.
- 2 Timothy 3:1
But we know that we must
…Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well
- Mathew 6:33
In the beginning, God (Coram deo)
God created the universe both animate and inanimate, spiritual, physical, separate from himself but independent from him.
God is both transcendent (outside his creation) and immanent (present within it)
He is everywhere present and involved in history.As creator, God is the true owner of all that we
see. Man is but a steward. The earth is the Lords and everything in it, the
world and all who live in it. - Psalms 24:1
What have we done?
They exchanged the truth for a lie and served created things rather than the creator.
- Romans 1:25
Gods rescue plan
For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him to reconcile to himself to all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood shed on the cross.
- Colossians 1:15-20
Who is Jesus?
What does he ask of us? In the same way, any of you who does not
give up everything he has cannot be my disciple
- Luke 14:33 Turning to Christ has often led to losses of
jobs, or families or sometimes even to the loss of the believers life.
In order to fully understand Gods purposes for our finances, we must turn to the cross
C V in Isaiah 52:13 – 53:12
We belong to the Lord..But this is what the Lord says – He who created you
O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel, Fear not for I have redeemed you. I have summoned you by name: You are mine.
Isaiah 43:1God has a purpose for our lives for we are
God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Purposes
1. Glorify God in all that we do - Ephesians 1:12
2. Obey God in response to his will and calling
3. To love God and others.- Mathew 22 37-39
4. To become a blessing to others
Who is in control?No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the
other or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money
- Mathew 6:24
Money has demonically usurped the role in modern society which the Holy Spirit is to have in the church.
Is money your treasure?Do not store up for yourselves on earth, where
moths and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal - Mathew 6:19
People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. - 1 Tim 6:9-11
Guard your heartAbove all else, guard your heart, for it is the
wellspring of life- Proverbs 4:23
I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from you commands
- Psalms 119:10The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a
broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise
- Psalms 51:17
What leads to prosperity?My son do not forget my teaching, but keep my
commands in your heart, for they will prolong your life many years and bring you prosperity
- Proverbs 3:1-2Blessed is the man who finds wisdom, the man
who gains understanding for she is more profitable than silver and yields better than gold. She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor
- Proverbs 3:15,16
What brings poverty?Dishonest money dwindles away, but he
who gathers little by little makes it grow.- Proverbs 13:11
Lazy hands make a man poor but diligent hands bring wealth
- Proverbs 10:4He who loves pleasure will become poor;
whoever loves wine and oils will never be rich.
- Proverbs 21:17
‘To become financially worry-free is not an impossible goal. Through a common sense approach, one can achieve this aspiration by working at it systematically’.
ASSET ALLOCATION
What is it? It is the process of deciding how to distribute investor’s wealth among different classes. Examples of Asset Classes are; Cash Stocks Bonds Real Estate
Each Individual Investor will have a plan that varies dependent on age, financial status, future plans, risks and needs. Ensure that the investment portfolio is suited to YOUR REQUIREMENTS and not those of the financial advisor/planner.
There are two primary types of vehicles for investments;

At 2003
Globally, youth bulge exerts great pressure on societies
For exampleGermany:
Expulsion of parts of the population to create opportunities for the youth
Consequences - World War 2UK:
Imperialism as a coping mechanism
The youth bulge in Kenya is a time bomb…..
> 50% of convicts are aged 16 to 25 years67% of all those who are unemployed are between 15
and 30 Over 60% of new HIV infections are among the youth92% of those unemployed (especially youth) have no
vocational or professional skills trainingThe youth were the militia in the recent political crisisthe lack of opportunities to earn a DECENT and HONEST
living is what drives young people into crime and drugs, and into a general state of hopelessness and despair
….. but potentially also a great opportunity
Abundant and young labour force is a long-term economic growth driver
If 2 million unemployed young people could be given jobs, and produce at half the average industrial output per worker, they would add KShs 250 billion to GDP (or 20% of current GDP)
Demographic summary, 20060-14 years of age are 41.9% of population, with
14.8 million children in school primary and secondary school pipeline to 2012
15-24 years of age are 22.5% of population, with 8 million in search of jobs over next five years
25-34 years of age are 13.4% of population, with 2.44 million who must have decent jobs now
Decent job creation challenge therefore is nearly 10 million decent jobs between now and 2012!
Key Education Indicators
National Primary Completion Rate was 86.5 percent in 2006
Transition Rate to Secondary Education was 60 percent in 2007
Transition Rate to University Education was 5.7 percent in 2003 and nearly 8 percent in 2007.
Enrolment SituationIn 2006, there were
7,705,335 children aged between 6-13 years i.e. primary school going age
3,665,751 children aged between 14-17 years i.e. secondary school going age
We therefore have 11.37 million aged between 6-17 yrs who should be in school
However, 691,000 of these children had never stepped into school and may grow up without any form of education.
Children Not Attending Schoola) Primary
• 1.62 million who come in and out despite free primary education
• Most affected regions are NEP 50.5% Coast 29.5% Rift Valley 25.1% Western 25.1% Nyanza 17.9%

More AssumptionsAssume that two thirds of all those not employed
in the formal and informal sector are fully engaged in agriculture, livestock and fishing, i.e., about 8 million
Further assume of 20 million over 15 yrs, at least 10% are disabled enough not to be able to work, i.e., about 2 million
We will still have 2 million people that have no access to any form of employment at all, not even disguised unemployment on the farm or street.
The Challenge…1School pipeline ready to preparing to disgorge 14.9
million potential entrants to labour force beginning 2012;
8 million youth aged 15-24 already in market, with only 1.5 million in secondary school, colleges, and universities leaving 6.5 million on labour market;
2.44 million young adults 25-34 on market, looking for decent jobs with life prospects
Total, of over 10 million young people in labour, of whom 2 million cannot read and write therefore unemployable leaving 8 million employable youth looking for good jobs with prospects between 2008 and 2012.
The Challenge…2
Can Kenya deliver jobs to these young people?
What must be done to create the necessary formal jobs?
What are the consequences of success?What are the consequences of failure?
RISKS OF INVESTMENTSBusiness riskFinancial riskPurchasing power riskIn essence, investors have to be concerned with the
command that their invested money has over goods and services on a continuing basis.
Market riskChanges in the market price of securities caused by;An unexpected war, an election year, political activity,
illness/death of a president.The market risk in equity shares is much higher than it is
in bonds Interest rate riskChanges in interest rates which affect bond prices/values
TYPES OF STOCKS In picking stocks to include in a portfolio chose stocks that are affected
differently by, mainly economic factors in such a way that their returns move in opposite direction (they are as negatively correlated as possible).
Stocks can be categorized into; -Blue chip stocks; large companies with a long history of
profit growth, dividend payout and a reputation for quality management.Examples include; Unilever tea, nation media Group, Barclays, E A
Breweries -Income stocks; Stocks that pay higher-than-average dividends
over a sustained period. Examples include; BAT, Total, BOC, Eveready -Value stocks; A stock that is currently selling at a low price.Companies that have good earnings and growth but whose stock prices do not
reflect this are considered value companies.Examples include; Kenya Airways, Kenya Power -Defensive stock; Stocks that stay stable when the market
declines are issued by industries that naturally do well during recessions.Examples include; BAT, E .A. Breweries
TYPES OF STOCKS
Cyclical stocks: Stocks that move up or down with the business cycle.
Investors who do not mind buying and selling as the market fluctuates tend to like cyclical stocks.
Examples include; Scan group, Nation media, Standard Group, TPS East Africa
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENTA portfolio is a group/collection of
assets/securities with different characteristics for purposes of diversification.
The major problem in managing portfolios is to establish an investment goal or objective and then decide how best to reach that goal with the securities available. This has been stated as an attempt by the investor to obtain the maximum return with minimum risk possible.
Basic principlesIt is the portfolio that mattersLarger expected portfolio returns come only with
larger portfolio riskThe risk associated with a security type depends on
when the investment will be liquidated. A person who plans to sell in one year will find equity
returns to be more risky than a person who plans to sell in ten years.
Diversification worksEach portfolio should be tailored to the particular
needs of its owner.Competition for abnormal returns is extensive Undervalued stocks are bought until the price rises
to a proper level and vice versa.

aggregate portfolio and each asset classMake adjustments( revise the weights)
INVESTMENT STEPSa) Economic AnalysisAssessment of the overall economic
environment and a forecast of its near-term outlook is carried out based on the following macro-economic variables;
GDP growth rate, inflation rate, exchange rate and interest rate, taxation rate, etc.

technology; capital; regulation;geography
Market Dynamics
INVESTMENT STEPSb) Industry Analysis Analyse the various forces that shape competition in the
industry;Determine the stage of growth for the industry;
Pioneering stage, expansion, stagnation. The idea is to identify sectors that stand to gain or lose
from the managers economic forecast. i.e identify the attractive and unattractive industries.
Select industries that are in the expansion stage of the growth cycle.
Don’t invest in industries in the pioneering stage unless one is prepared to accept a great deal of speculative risk, comparable to that assumed by the innovator/speculator.
c) Company Analysis
How does the Company make Money? Analyse Financial Statements;
-Profit and Loss -Balance Sheet-Cashflow Statement
An outline of company specific issues from these three statements is done and is mainly summarized by ratio analysis which can either be; Time series or cross-sectional analysis
Ratios give the investigator an indication of the direction in which the firm is moving and its financial position in comparison with other firms in the industry.
