Absa Bank Kenya is eyeing the second half of the year to implement its risk-based loans pricing model, a move that will boost interest margins and enable it to expand credit access.

The lender is yet to reprice its loans despite having received approval from the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) to set differentiated interest rates based on a customer's creditworthiness.
