State eyes Sh60bn in second bond sale in September
The State carries out the bulk of its borrowing from the domestic market via Treasury bonds, with a smaller share coming through Treasury bills and overdrafts from commercial banks and the CBK.
The Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) is back in the market with a Sh60 billion Treasury bond sale as the government keeps up its rapid rate of domestic borrowing early in the fiscal year.
In the sale, the CBK has reopened a 20-year bond from 2019 at 12.87 percent and a 30-year paper first issued in April 2026 at a rate of 12.5 percent.
