Kenya is set to initiate talks for new funding with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) this week as the multilateral lender’s staff team jets into Nairobi for an assessment of the country’s economic and financial policies.

The IMF has acknowledged the possibility of a new funding programme with Kenya after it axed a previous arrangement in March this year when Kenya failed to meet conditionalities, including missed revenue targets.
