The National Treasury has floated a Sh60 billion infrastructure bond, the second such issue this year. The 16-year bond is intended to finance the national Budget and will have a coupon determined by the market through the auction system.

The bond interest will not attract tax – amounting to 10 per cent – normally charged on the other issues.
