The Treasury is looking to convert Sh87.8 billion worth of government securities that are due to mature in January into a medium-term infrastructure bond in order to avoid a cash crunch early in the New Year.

The direct conversion of maturing Treasury bills and bonds into longer-term security, which is known as a switch bond, has been done only once before by the Treasury, in June 2020.
