The Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) has cut its inflation outlook further for the next 12 months as it sees continued stability in consumer prices and the exchange rate.

The apex bank said on Wednesday that it expects the cost of living to fall steadily to reach lows of 3.7 percent in June 2026, having previously forecast inflation to fall to 4.3 percent in the same month.
