At least nine banks will require Sh68 billion to maintain the required regulatory liquidity threshold should the Treasury Single Account (TSA) be fully implemented this year and the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) withhold its support, a new assessment by the apex shows.

TSA is a consolidated government cash account held at the Central Bank of Kenya, meaning all payments made to State agencies and departments will now be held at the apex bank.
