What does market capitalisation mean?
Market capitalisation is the estimated total market value of a company's outstanding shares.
The basic calculation is:
Market cap = share price × shares outstanding
For example, a company with 1 billion shares trading at KSh20 has a market capitalisation of approximately KSh20 billion.
It is important not to confuse a company's share price with its size. A KSh300 share is not automatically larger than a KSh30 share. The number of shares outstanding also matters.
Which are the biggest NSE companies?
As of the dated data above, Safaricom is by far the largest listed counter by market capitalisation at about KSh1.48 trillion, followed by Equity Group, KCB Group, EABL and Co-operative Bank.
The NSE's own market statistics reported total market capitalisation of approximately KSh4.133 trillion on 26 August 2026.
A useful warning for investors
A market-cap ranking tells you how large a company is, not whether its shares are a good investment.
Before deciding which NSE listed companies to buy, also examine profitability, debt, dividends, valuation, liquidity, business prospects and recent financial results.
The NSE maintains the official listed companies register and its market-statistics service provides daily equity price information.
Note: Market capitalisation changes whenever share prices or shares outstanding change. For investment decisions, always confirm the latest figure against the NSE's current market data and the company's disclosures.
