Digital lender Tala is laying off up to 10 percent of its workforce in Kenya as part of a global reorganisation to streamline operations, joining a growing list of technology firms restructuring their workforces amid the increasing adoption of artificial intelligence. 

Tala said on Thursday that the plan to lay off part of its staff will not impact its operations in Kenya, and the reorganisation will lead to centralisation of functions across its markets amid an increasing shift to embedded services.
