September’s bond sale which closes on Wednesday is set to test the expectations that interest rates have peaked after the recent fall in inflation and stability of the exchange rate.

The Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) signalled that it expects domestic interest rates to go down with its 25-basis point rate cut to 12.75 percent in the last monetary policy committee meeting in August.
