The private sector reported expanded economic activity last month, touching a new high of 27 months, signalling hopes of more job prospects and improved tax collection after a bruising election year.
The latest Stanbic Bank Kenya Purchasing Managers Index (PMI), which tracks private-sector activity shows business activity jumped to a high of 56.40 in April from 55.7 in March on the back of the sharpest improvement in operating conditions since January 2016.
